The first album on MS I see that is rated with a 9.9 and that deserves it. This one, my friends, is a g*dd*mn masterpiece. I had never heard of Nevermore before, and got it with a gift from signing in with some magazine, and I LOVED it from the first note till the last.
Oh, and you should some songs to the highlights. These:
Final Product, My Acid Words, Medicated Nation, The Holocaust Of Thought, Sell My Heart For Stones, A Future Uncertain.  |
|

|
| Amazing album. One of my favourite albums! |
|
|
|
| I was completely obssessed with it the first month I got it, but unfortunately I overplayed it and now I can't stand to listen to it anymore. Nevertheless, it totally deserves a 9.9. |

| This Godless Endeavor is probably the best song |
|
|
|
Hum... Final Product weak ? I can't agree, but that my tastes after all.
And it is the best Nevermore album for me, because it's the one that can outrank them all on pretty everything (except, perharps, the pure emotion of Dreaming Neon Black).
Highlights : Born, Final Product, My Acid Words, Sentient 6, This Godless Endeavor |

| I'm trying to get into it, but I don't really like the two slow songs... anyway, it's amazing power/thras/progressive/whatever metal |

If you're a fan of nevermore you will be surprise of this masterpiece!!!! 9.9 exactly!!! not 10 because we can heard that a van lost a stick in sentient 6  . seriously the sound is great (more than the old "ennemies of reality"  ) The songs are just amazing (born, medicaded nation, the godless endeavor bref all songs ). I'm really happy to see that nevermore staying a great band... For me it's the album of the f**in' year!!! |

"This Godless Endeavor is a masterpiece!!!" This album is the REAL sequel to "Dead Heart in a Dead World" Every time when i hear it i have much feelings and thoughts about music and lyrics. I love this band and especially this record \m/ And i don't think that "Final Product" is bad... this is one of the best songs i ever heard
Highlights: All songs |
|
|
|
Can't more agree about Sentient 6 . That song impressed me so much, specialy the lines you pointed out: 'My children you are my army' and 'And their skies cry Mary' .
My high list world be: Sentient 6 and Born.
And I agree that it is the album of the year! |
|
|
|
| It absolutely is the best album of 2005, maybe even the best album ever. I'm still listening it every day. Great review, my friend! |
|
|
|
| Amazing album, the vocals are amazing! I love the way in which it has a sort of power metal feel to it. The songs are all so catchy aswell. A definate winner. |
|
|
|
Damn good album, and actually the only Nevermore album I've heard.  |

Instead of flaming you, which would be right reaction, I shall say this to you: The Politics Of Ecstasy. |

| I'm having a total flashback moment on this album right now. A fantastic straight-forward masterpiece. Great review Collin, you said it all. |

| Great review, except that "Final Product" thing. In fact, i think, this is one of the best tracks here, with totally amazing guitar solo, maybe one of the best metal solos, i've heard. |
|
|

This is a perfect album, there's no doubt about it. Its flawless and a work of art. Every song has a very high quality, I dont even mention the solos here or the level of vocal delivery. The lyrics are so modern and in-your-face brilliant. They always made good albums but this one is a step forward and very hard to beat/top. Its one of my favourite albums of all time.
Cant say enough really. |
|
|
|
| I got it, yeah its really good, but I dont get the hype behind it, oh well. But its unique so I guess I can appreciate that. |
|
|
|
| Born was the song that got me into Nevermore. Yay thank goodness for that! |
|
|
|
| OOOHHH what an album!!! I love Nevermore. Especialy for their lyrics and the loneliness-feeling which they create on me!!! Bittersweet Feast is one of their better songs IMO. Also Born is perfect and so thrashy! |

| This album did NOT deserve a 9. It was good but not amazing. I personally thought it was a 6 or 7. But thats just me I guess. |
|
|
|
| Definitely my favourite Nevermore album. There's not a single filler on it, and the whole album flows amazingly well. The addition of Steve Smyth also helps the album too. His solo on "A Future Uncertain" is one of my fave solos in any Nevermore song. I have severe doubts they will ever top this one. It will probably always remain their masterpiece. <3 |

@Angelic Storm, they already did top this one... with Dead Heart...
not saying this one is bad. Certainly not. It comes close second behind Dead Heart |

"Dead Heart..." is indeed an awesome album. I only put TGE slightly in front of it because I think its a smidgen more consistent, but not by much!  |

Dead Heart has one or two semi-fillers indeed, but the highpoints are higher, so on average a better album for me. |

Yep, its the one or two semi-fillers that make me put "Dead Heart..." just under TGE. The highpoints on that album (such as the title track, "The Heart Collector", "We Disintegrate", etc) are truly amazing, and its definitely very close between the two albums even though I dont think TGE has any fillers on it at all. "Enemies Of Reality" is also a particular favourite album of mine by Nevermore, but again, a couple of fillers is it's undoing! lol |

Enemies Of reality is only good when you have the remastered/remixed version cause the original one is totally spoiled by the horrendous production. |

I only own the original cd, and have never even heard the remaster. lol Ive heard a lot about the original production supposedly being awful, but it doesnt sound bad to me. Ive certainly heard albums with far worse production. But Id like to hear the remastered version just to see if it really is that much better. |
