The Faceless debuted with Akeldama a few years back. A tough album to classify, it combined technicality, brutality, some occasional melody, along with some deathcore-ish moments and keyboards. Overall it was a good album and showed the band at least trying to be unique amongst a sea of new "br00tal" bands, and even if the mixture of sounds didn't always work the best, it showed a lot of promise. On Planetary Duality, we see The Faceless losing the keyboards and deathcore-ish leanings and starting to realize some of the promise Akeldama showed, putting out a very solid album in the process.

  Amazing album.

  ...sorry, I can't get into this band... seen them too many times opening for other bands and I'm really tired of their annoying emo audience...
Here in Minnesota we have so many of these bands and I'm sick of 'em all.

ever time I see a Faceless posting I feel inclined to bitch...

So you bitch about a band because of their audience?

Let's see... can't get into this band... seen them too many times opening for "good" bands... emo audience... too many of these bands in the frozen tundra of Minnesota... sick of it all....
More stated there than just the emo audience in their skinny jeans, retro Vans and bad hair cuts.
I'll go back to the Old Fart Metalstormers area now... OK

Rating: 10 I do not understand the negative comments I've heard about this. Truly incredible album.
Only downside is the short length (32min).
