An impressively better half of the "earthcore" double album, Skydancer presents the perfect mix of heaviness and melody. Tracks such as "Badlands," "Breakaway," and even the title track may be the three best singles across the band's discography and set the stage for a fantastic effort by the Australian metalcore band. The only thing holding back Skydancer, and the band for that matter, is the filler tracks that seem to run together. Like on Earthwalker, there are a few tracks that, at first listen, are hard to tell apart from others. Admittedly, there are fewer on this half of the double album, but perhaps they should've done away with the filler and just made one album of just the better tracks.
