Took way more listens to appreciate than Citadels/Self Titled EP, but ready rewarding once it all clicked into place. There are some great melodies peppered throughout the album, but the guitars are a little too quiet and feel buried underneath the vocals at times. Maybe because I've not listened with decent over-ear headphones yet. So far this band has a solid discog, they'll always be just as polarising as Coheed due to the vocalist. To some people's ears it just doesn't sound good, to mine and fans of the band though the guy's voice is pretty impressive. Very, very high pitched (I wouldn't say whiny) at times though which takes a few listens to to "get". Faves on this: Hypnos, The Lotus, Metatron, Violet Skies, Midnight Sun, Iron Hands....man they're all good.Thank You Scientist Maps of Non-Existent PlacesThe Dear Hunter Act II: The Meaning of, & All Things Regarding Ms. LeadingThe Living End Roll OnThe Living End I Only Trust Rock n RollA much needed return to form for a band that's been running on fumes for over a decade. The solo on Roller blows anything since White Noise out of the water.rCheney has things to say on this release, and the record has grown on me tenfold since its release.rIt has enough bite, melody and catchiness to be a worthy addition to TLE discography.Trivium In the Court of the DragonWow this is actually good. I liked Sin but found WTDMS dreadfully boring. Sword and Crisis are my favourites so far.Volbeat God of Angels TrustBetter than Servant, which I really enjoyed. They bounced back after the toothless Rewind, Replay, Rebound and have put out back to back crackers. They're not everyone's cup of tea, but they're entertaining and this was a fun listen.3.5 great36 Crazyfists Time and TraumaBumped up to a 3.5 for me, was much more of a grower than I expected it to be.rSurprisingly infectious, had parts of most of the album stuck in my head for the past couple of days.Black Sabbath Sabbath Bloody SabbathProtest the Hero VolitionThe Killers Hot FussVolbeat Servant of the MindVolbeat get shunned on Sputnik, but this is a nice bit fat slice of chugging rock and roll. rFor those who checked out with Outlaw Gentlemen... give this album a try and see what you rthink. Recommended tracks: Temple of Ekur, The Sacred Stones, Shotgun Blues, The Devil Rages rOn, Becoming, Lasses Birgitta.3.0 good96 Bitter Beings Synergy RestoredBlack Sabbath 13Coheed and Cambria Year of the Black RainbowCoheed and Cambria Vaxis I: The Unheavenly CreaturesCoheed and Cambria Vaxis II: A Window of the Waking MindImproving over it's predecessor, Vaxis II trims the fat and rises to the surface with a lean and varied record. Coheed always rshine when their records have "something for everyone" and this is no exception. Pop, metal, prog, dance, it's all here. rVaxis I was a slog to get through especially after the predictable Dark Sentencer and the screech to a halt that is Queen Of rThe Dark. This one has some stuff that may scare away modern fans, but if you're still listening to these guys it's time for rsomething different and this is it.Ghost (SWE) InfestissumamGhost (SWE) PrequelleGhost (SWE) PhantomimeThis is fun for what it is, a covers EP sandwiched between studio releases. I never thought I'd see Ghost covering The Stranglers, and they nailed it with a thick bass tone and a fun swagger. Phantom of The Opera is done justice and it's nice to hear the track with different production, it's absolutely not what I'd consider "better" but it's still good to hear Ghost covering Maiden. Jesus He Knows me is indeed the best track on the EP, but all in all this is an easy listen with its 5 tracks zooming by. It's not top tier Ghost, and 'If You Have Ghost' is still their best covers EP, but it's worth a listen despite the negativity (and no one bothering to write a review).Ghost (SWE) SkeletáJinjer WallflowersNeed a few more listens, but on my first play through I was a bit disappointed. Full of great moments, slick production and excellent musicianship, yet nothing that I feel excited to go back to. The scarcity of any real hooks along with its lack of variety keeps this from being the classic I know they still have in them.

Adds nothing to the originals and pales in every way. Fake drums, strained vocals and the very limited changes they made don't add to the songs whatsoever. This band is a shambles.
