Everyone NEEDS to listen to King of Errors, now, do it

Album Rating: 4.0

Not only that, the whole album heh.

Album Rating: 4.0

Yeah but King of Errors at the very least. One of the best choruses I have ever fucking heard

I was so hooked with the chorus from "Frozen" back in the day.

Album Rating: 4.0

Yeah that Madonna song was brilliant :D

Album Rating: 5.0

-R6, of course I had to review it lol. Especially since I can actually write good things about them this time around!



-Voi, you goddamn grammar Nazi. Thanks though, I will fix those later. And yeah "Frozen" was like the only awesome song on Glorious Collision.

Stellar review. Pos'd.

These guys kept coming up on my Spotify radio, but it was only tracks from Glorious Collision. None of them left a positive impression on me, so I kept skipping them. If this entire album sounds like "King of Errors" though, I might check out. Reminds me of a more mature Masterplan.

Album Rating: 5.0

There are a lot of similarities to Masterplan but Evergrey has way more character and uniqueness. Cheers.

Might check this out I dunno...

Album Rating: 5.0

Might as well.

I think there's a lot of a focus on the vocals

and choruses, and those are the strengths of the

album imo. Tom and Danhage didn't really even

flex their muscles on the guitars. They've stuck

to the chugging riffs as opposed to some more

complex ones, which i think they should have

incorporated.The band built some really good

foundations but the flourishes on top could have

been stronger. Good album nonetheless

Album Rating: 4.0

Agreed, the album doesn't prog enough. But I'm guessing they wanted to be cautious with the return of Jonas and Henrik. The band didn't take many risks with the songwriting unfortunately

Album Rating: 4.0

They're good (especially their older albums) but I don't think they experiment enough to be considered the

greatest prog metal band.

Good review.

Not a genre I've ever been into but I quite liked King of Errors. What are some other similar bands?

I've heard this is a band I should like. That album title and cover though...sounds like something BVB would come up with lol

Album Rating: 5.0

Darkwater and Mercenary are the two that jump to mind.



And yeah album cover sucks, although I will say that for whatever

reason is looks a lot better in physical form.

Yeah, I really like Darkwater: http://youtu.be/F_JdFJFEHCc

So I swung by my local record store and was surprised to see they had a few copies of this in, to which I bought one of course (and drove around for 2 hours listening twice more). And I have mixed thoughts in response to Omair and Cpt:



-I agree the choruses are overused at times - particularly the title track which has no substance beyond the chorus (albeit a very infectious one).



-I also agree that a few songs in the middle of the record are "pop metal" and follow cliche structures and rhythms. Most of the record is not so though.



-I do disagree about the solos, omair, as I feel there are more solos on here than usual and they are markedly better than Evergrey's solos usually are.



-I also still find this album to be comparable in quality to their old material, and think many of the songs will have value in future years.



If I was going to be specific about my rating after about a total of 7-8 listens I'd lower it from a 4.2 to a 4.1. In sum, I still find this album to be a major resurgence for Evergrey.

Album Rating: 4.0

Right my flexing of muscles comment was with

regards to the rhythm playing, not the solos. The

solos are really good, especially Barricade's.

And the choruses are very catchy and good. It's

just that I feel this could have been a lot

stronger. The production is good but the

Mastering volume is a little too high. It sounded

good the first couple of listens, but it's a

little exhausting in the long run. Anyway it's

mostly received an overwhelmingly positive

response so far outside of here
