| Another band with the DgD style of proggy post-hardcore. Not groundbreaking rstylistically, but there's enough new stuff here to differentiate them from the existing rgroups in the subgenre. The technical skill and production are top-notch as well. |

| IMO melodeath releases have been really underwhelming for a while, but this is phenomenal. rIt's like the platonic form of melodeathrEDIT: I was hyped when I first listened to this for some reason, but I've mellowed on it a bit. Still very solid |

| Hail the Sun Divine Inner Tension |
I've always been a Hail the Sun fan and have been to four or five of their shows, but Mental
Knife and New Age Filth were pretty lacking to me. Luckily, this is a return to form. |
| Hail the Sun cut. turn. fade. back. |
| Definitely a solid album, but I wish they'd experiment a bit more. To me everything mental knife and onward sounds quite same-y. Still gonna see them on tour though |

| I'm a huge PTH fan and just can't get into this -- IMO it's a downgrade in every respect. Worse songwriting, worse lyrics, worse vocals. But I also think Scurrilous is their best album, so take my opinion with a grain of salt. |
