well, it's somethin'

this shit is great.
FTW

The first song on this is about 100 times better than every halfway decent moment from ATRU combined. That said, it still sucks aside from the intro.

Okay, this sounds completely unlike what I expected..

fuck off bighans

Hey at least I'm giving it a chance. Honestly I like the intro, thought this might actually be good. Obviously I was wrong.

This is actually really good.

Spirit Narrative is so great

yeah, this is great

spirit narrative and way of ever-branching paths are my favs.

hans is just mad cause all of his favorite music is irrelevant now

^look who's back

i never left but seldom do I participate in the community here any more

yes, I will listen to this

Yeah its good. Its filling the huge hole left by the number twelve's breakup.

this is consistently better than ATRU so far. As amazing as atru was in some moments i had to lower my rating because of the good amount of 'okay calm down' spots. this is better balanced and less focused on abusing sporadic musical explosions, which in moderation is amazing but they kinda got a little carried away before. I think they've improved as songwriters.

yea this is better

I agree with neutral

i still dont think theyll make something as epic as a crater to cough in though.

Its definitely better than ATRU but obviously thats not saying much.

This is less irritating than ATRU but still probably a 2-2.5 at best

I hate to say this since I've made my hatred for ATRU well known, but this isn't all that bad.

I am pleasantly surprised by how listenable it is.

Why does we like this?

Have to agree with Apollo. a 2-2.5 at best [2]

sucks ass

fucking awesome

Listened to this last night in Trebor's list; not bad, but nothing I'll be getting either.

First thing I ever listened to from these guys...
And I don't like it at all

Wow they've improved big time.

it finally happened

This rules guys, come on.

yeah not so much

You don't like Screamo stuff to begin with, so your opinion means nothing.

hans for fuck sake shut up holy shit bro if you know you hate the style/band I don't know why you even listened to it. You knew going in you wouldn't like it lol come on broski

what maniac said

not enough rawk for hansy

ProgFag Ive been branching out hardcore lately dude ask Maniac I actually went into this with an open mind its just that it sucks balls.

no you didnt go into it with an open mind. What sucks balls is your attitude towards a genre that you know you don't like. There was no reason for you to comment on this list, you are allowed to hate the band but if you hate the genre which we all know you do then there was no real reason to try this anyway was there? Not to mention the fact that you've made it your mission to make sure everybody on this site knows you don't like ATRU. We get it, and we don't care.

"Yeah its good. Its filling the huge hole left by the number twelve's breakup."

it's close to filling the hole. they just need to hire jon karel

lol Progmaster you're going to pos the fuck out of my review for this.

hey hans would it make you mad if i said bob dylan was a terrible singer

thrice

hans listens to limp bizkit lol

you listen to animal collective lol

nah this rules

hey hans would it make you mad if i said bob dylan was a terrible singer

^ uh, no, Ive said that since I was 5, as a matter of fact when I saw him live it was the worst show ever cause his voice is so bad. Of course, it was still awesome just cause it was Dylan.

dylan was and is a terrible singer that doesnt mean he isnt an amszing vocaaolist

dylan was and is a terrible singer that doesnt mean he isnt an amszing vocaaolist


^ Pretty much this

All great vocalists can't sing

spirit narrative is raw

i agree with that I just like when hans defends himself it makes me laugh

you are so smart and also cool.

fred durst is really cool too hahahahaha and u r not smart cause u like limppp bizkit worst piece of shit ever next to ICP

I am going to have to temporarily pause my loop of Dvorak's complete works to listen to this horseshit

this angers me greatly

what's up Hans?

Viral, just because I reviewed a Limp Bizkit album doesn't mean I'm a huge fan. I mean I jammed them back in 2000 like everyone else and still go for the nostalgic session.

But CTTS brings out the elitists don't they. Cause LB >>>>>>> CTTS suck it hipster.

sup MJ, cant wait for the review, probably gonna do one of my own.

I'm loving this so far

well even if u used to "jam" to them youre still a stupid fuck

Thanks Hans I look forward to your review as well

it probably shouldn't be possible that a piece of "music" could make me as angry as this does, but every time the "spoken word" parts come on I go apoplectic


so far it's pretty much the same quality as AtRU for me. ugh

I take it back, on second listen this is fucking awful -_-

lol ViralOblivion thinks his opinion matters.

MJ, its bad, but its actually much better than ATRU. I even gave it a 2.

"Rites of Initiation documents the ill-lit, inward-leading, forever-winding pathways that eventually take hold, on a search for the authentic in an increasingly artificial world. When the boundaries between thinking and knowing, dreaming and waking, living and dying all begin to blur, a terrifyingly primal vision begins to bleed through the fragile veil of consensus perception. To surrender to it, embracing the other side is our “rite of passage". We've crafted these songs in an attempt to sing that Transition into being"

i dont think my opinion matters all ive been doing, is making fun of you youre missing the whole point im saying youre a fuckking idiot thats what im trying to say but as i said, youre stupid so u couldnt comprehend that which is hilarious

Yeah that description is incredibly gay. The first track on this is decent, the rest is atrocious, although still better than ATRU, which is pretty much the worst album ever.

i dont think my opinion matters all ive been doing, is making fun of you youre missing the whole point im saying youre a fuckking idiot thats what im trying to say but as i said, youre stupid so u couldnt comprehend that which is hilarious

Yeah ViralOblivion you are making a name for yourself you'll be a legend soon keep jamming CTTS, BTBAM, AC, and Opeth dude you're fucking royalty and a bastion of intellectual power.

i am thank you

also, where the fuck do they get the balls to quote Dante. of course it's the most overquoted Dante line ever



they will pay for this

Didnt notice a Dante quote, I'm guessing its from the Inferno?

no he means Peter Dante

[a]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qzWbCcblh7U[/a]

haha you mean the guy who must give Sandler really good head?

yeah Hans the first track (minus the speaking bits) is the best thing they've ever done

SO FUCKING GOOD.

SO FUCKING GOOD. [2]

yeah Hans the first track (minus the speaking bits) is the best thing they've ever done

I don't understand how anyone could not like this unless they don't like screaming at all in which case they are pussies.

i need to give ATRU another listen then come back

i like it. i don't know atru well enough to compare really, but first impression is this>atru

are the vocals still shit?

i mean, i listened to that one 9-minute pre-release track which i thought was good although unremarkable instrumentally which also had terrible vocals. but i mean, how do i know that they didn't re-record that song WITHOUT the whiny 12-year old goth chick screams for this EP nahmean?

really liked Spirit Narrative, I never could get into ATRU tough

this is good

hey guys keep hating ctts its so edgy

"Yeah its good. Its filling the huge hole left by the number twelve's breakup."

Not for me. the number twelve spot can never be filled

Call me old-fashioned but I just bought this.

It really cant :[ sawtooth needs to release that new fucking album already so i can at least hear karel rape his kit.

you guys are really bored to be shitting on ctts like a hundred times in the same thread. we get it, you don't like this. that you can't understand certain types of music or can't relate to them and appreciate how good they are, which i think happens to all of us, than just accept that, you don't need to think that everything you are not able to appreciate is BAD, just to continu thinking you're some music gurus or something. really, we get it and we don't care

I don't understand how anyone could not like this unless they don't like screaming at all in which case they are pussies.

fucking rofl

fuck his ass

circle takes my hair...me likes, lots of homos itt

well this is good for sure, how good though time will tell.

The first song on this is about 100 times better than every halfway decent moment from ATRU combined.[2]

also

Wow they've improved big time.
^
this.

ooh-ha-ha-ooh-ha; ooh-ha-ha-ooh-haha (repeat)

This fucking rules.

So why aren't all the reviews pouring in yet?

ep is objectively more interesting and well written than ATRU imo. [2]
