| Sounds like a kind of extreme prog. I might check it out based on the review but I still won't get my panties wet quite yet. |
|
|
|
| Judging from your review, just the kind of music I crave. Thanks for the review! |
|

Just checked a song on YT and sounds pretty damn cool.
It's true that this band is a metal subgenre salad, and they can pull it off. I like that.
I'll check the album later, I have a lot on my queue as of now :/ |
|
|
|
I also just checked a song on youtube it sounds worthy enough that I want to spend 10-15 dollars on it instead of just downloading it. (I actually buy most of my albums btw in case anyone got the wrong idea from that statement) |
|
|
|
| I checked em out, but I don't know if I would give it a 9. They definitely have some great parts in their songs but I hear lots of room for improvement. |
|
|
|
| I'm surprised you liked it so much... 9.3! I just listened to some songs on YouTube and it's pretty boring, derivative stuff. Ok, derivative can be good, but this is not even good derivative... |
|
|
|
| This sounds very intriguing. I will def need to check this out asap. |
|
|
|
| It sounds good, but i don't think that they deserve it a 9.3. I think that 8 is more correct imo. |
|
|
|
| Just an fyi, it's not like the rating is meant to be reflective of our universal taste. It's a personal score. People should read more into the words in the review than the numbers beside it. |

Hence why people like Jupitreas, Thryce, and a few others if I recall correctly stopped giving scores. I'm very much tempted to start doing this as well. I love when people comment on the actual article, not the score.
Though, with any rating topping a 9 there's going to be major disagreements. This album moved me quite a bit, people see the score and expect it to move them in the same way. Well, it won't, so I don't expect any less from a 9+ rating. |

|
| I'll have to give this a little more time because I'm not sure how I'm supposed to be judging it. At times it reminds me of Opeth (if they weren't so boring) with some cheesy melodeath moments and black metal shrieks. |
|
|
|
Hmmm I'm interested, will check it out asap. Good review!
You are right... there has been a lot of debuts this year. |
|
|
|
| Hmmm... Sounds interesting and a 9.3 isn't bad at all! Will be checking this one. |

Much agreed with this. Art is emotion. Science is numbers. Applying numbers to emotion never works. One man's food is another man's poison, and all that..
I particularly like it when reviewers include similar sounding bands or reference genres and influences. Reviews are, afterall, not a flying fook about what *he* or *she* cares about an album, but instead a written piece on whether it influences *me* to sample it out. And Doc's piece did that. |

| I might like this. Why not give it a try? Kinda curious. |

Here as well, my somewhat extreme metal cravings often come in the same time as my prog cravings, why not try to find something that merges them? |

Curiosity is very powerful. So, might as well give in  |

| This is very good progressive metal. It's right there along with Cormorant's Dwellings and Leprous' Bilateral in terms of quality progressive metal. |
