-too many riffs, xzibit would say "hey my man I put riffs in your riffs" <-- funny
-voivod ripoff
-bad vocals, so weird and bad (too many riffs overtop vocals also)
-[vague negative criticism]
-musicians too passionate, too much talent/too many riffs

overall.. this album is pretty decent but way too many riffs and no zest or dynamic integers in the songs, 3.2/10

Too many awesome riffs yes,

I'll have to wait until it comes in the mail to confirm that my dude

But I get the feeling you're probably right...

By far their more COMPLETE album. Negatives that it has less hits than the others and i'd like it to be... 63 instead of 73 minutes... 2-3 years ago i'd give it easilly a 10. I dont rate that high the albums nowadays so this is a very strong 9.... As for the "possitives" they are sooo many, the band is extremely mature, amazing riffs and solos, huge variety in songwriting, some great moments of "innovation"...

Psychotropia, Pillars of Sand, Charging the void, Recharging the void and LCD, all have astonishing parts....

Shouldn't the vocals classify this band as a technical death metal band more in line with Atheist than a thrash band?

When vocals have come into consideration in setting up a genre?!

Vektor is fully-fledged technical thrash metal band. Nothing more or nothing less than that.

This album is my first exposure to Vektor and I'm very impressed. Favorite track so far: Recharging the Void.
I also think it has a death metal-ish sound to it, which is a good thing... Most really good music won't classify in to a specific, limited genre.

This is my first Vektor album. And everything in it is impressive, from the vocals to the drums. I can listen to this album all day (especially while reading hard science fiction like Asimov).

After 6 months being on my playlist I just bought CD and hoodie. This is the best thrash album since Kreator's "Coma of Souls" (1990)

I think I like this album a little more than it deserves simply because it's such an exhausting listen that I don't replay it much. It's such a long and intense album, which isn't necessarily a bad thing but as a result it's not even close to being my most played album of the year (that goes to Winter's Gate). IMO this is probably the album that best shows how much metal has improved over the years, and definitely my favorite album of 2016.

Way too long for its own good. I couldn't even finish it all.

But did you enjoy what you heard? I would recommend their first album a million times over this

It's a little better but still nothing special for me. I just don't like thrash metal in general.

Alright, It's in my top 20 now. I've seen some guys telling their songwriting is sucks on comments. Guys... just WTF?

Their best album imo.

Oh yeah this is incredible. I have no clue why I didn't listen to it sooner. I'm on a recent technical thrash kick and this will be spinning for many months to come.

Ok so I somehow missed this band (why?), only after 40 seconds into this album I concluded that I'm a huge fan (I'm dead serious).

New Vektor!
