| 0.0 | Jom | November 29th 06 | Sure, it's heavy, angry, aggressive, and any other synonymous adjective you want to throw in here, but I could not get into this album at all. I concede that the first three tracks - "Sickness," "Waiting for the Turning Point," and "Dress Like a Target" - start the album off on an extremely good note. After this, the album completely derails and is hardly listenable. This is a Phil Anselmo side project, but people should NOT be expecting Pantera, because the guitars are irritating chugga-chugga fare and the repetitive bass-snare-bass-snare nature of the drums is annoying. I suppose if you like Phil Anselmo's vocals combined with thrash-ish elements, then you'd get quite a bit out of this. I bought this blindly, and I regret it. The first three tracks are pretty good, though, and are worth checking out. For me, the general rule of thumb for this album is that if the track is sub-3:00, it's not a bad track, but anything over 3:00 has the potential to be ear-splittingly putrid.

| 1.5 very poor | EXSCHISM | February 19th 23 | I enjoyed the debut for the most part, it's heaviness and chunky sludge plus some doom in moments. This by contrast comes across too punk influenced which doesn't quite work for it. It's far too repetitive, sadly the production is dogshit too, so it's murky, hollowed out, with a crackly tinny quality. Robs the music of heft, and his vocals sound like he's yelling at the back of a room, just has no immediacy despite "heaviness, anger and pace", really weak effort. You can tell compared to their first that the passion just wasn't there in the same way. Destruction of a Person is pretty cool however.

| 2.0 poor | mark7477 | September 25th 10 | It's more of the same very little excitement here if any destruction of a person is a pretty good song.It's very obvious to think the band was done at this point no where to else to go from here i feel precisely.
