Picked this up because the sick album art and I jam them here and there, but don't expect much. It kinda bothers me that they've basically been making the same album over and over, but something about them keeps bringing me back. Ritual is my favorite though, that album has got some fantastic songs. Good review, have a pos.

The average needs to be at a 3.8 or 3.9. Seriously.

It's not even funny anoymore. Should have ended it instead of bringing Ryan Knight onboard

the fog is a stand out track, or at least you can tell its trying to be. where's the love?

also its crazy how much the title track sounds like it came from Miasma

Ryan Knight writes some of the most interesting solos in modern metal

yeah they're awesome and jazz infused, but there is something I miss about their previous guitarists solos John K-something. its part of what made Nocturnal so great

Yupp. They're gonna make an even better album than Nocturnal without Shannon and John. It's reasonable to think that

>without Shannon and John

>John



Could've sworn everyone else who was in the band at that point were actually bitching about John being lazy and not writing any fresh material, and that Trevor had to actually write some of the solos and riffs himself, hence Ryan coming in. Jesus, give them a chance; they haven't disappointed so far.
