glad you liked, Rosco! i wrote this review when i was 14 and it's definitely not my best work but i'm happy you were able to find an album you love because of it

You gained my trust and respect of your opinion by mentioning Superunknown and Sound Awake in your opening para. Two albums that have meant a lot to me over the years. So you had my attention.

You were 14!? Hats off to you. Think I'd just mastered writing my name by that age.

Their other stuff worth investigating too? Saddened to see such a fall from grace, ratings-wise, for their most recent release.

Album Rating: 4.5

Dredg are one of my all time fave alt bands. I think everything up to the last album is stellar. I'd probably recommend The Pariah, The Parrot, The Delusion next. It kinda runs the gamut of their sound.

Album Rating: 5.0

Catch Without Arms is their other truly stellar album imo, the debut and Pariah both have their moments but don't fully work for me.

Album Rating: 4.5

Some days I think Pariah is actually their best. I have the big three at 4.5, so yeah they're all fantastic. Leitmotif is also great, but all the ideas there are refined in later releases.

Album Rating: 5.0

Pariah has too many wack interludes for me to consider it their best

Album Rating: 5.0

the one that sounds like an Indiana Jones chase scene is dope though
