It's not like he insults people that likes what he doesn't like. At least I don't remember seeing it. Plus Ronnie Radke is suing him. Seems like Ronnie got a good bit of fans on his side as well as people that hate Fantano
we often have differences in opinion, but I've always found his reviews to be intelligent, articulate, and well-supported, so I respect him as a professional and I find his opinions worth listening to even if I don't share them.
I wasn't aware that too many of them did, although I suppose that makes sense. People are often quick to disagree vehemently with someone who doesn't like a thing they like. I've watched Fantano only casually over the years and

Such a fun track. It's like a crazy and drug-filled heavy metal fest with black metal vocals and synth on top. Lovely.
The chorus is so catchy goddamit.

Ugh I own the remastered version and for some unknown reason they thought it would be a good Idea to take the lead guitar out of that song along with the 2 solos! The original is just so much better! Grr
Great album. I don't know, if it can be considered their most experimental one, as all of them starting with Hail Horror Hail are quite experimental, but still I enjoy a lot their mix of space rock, metal and whatnot.

Been meaning to listen to this one forever and kept putting it off. What a spectacularly chill, creative, excellent album. I think I am still more drawn to the speed and highs/lows of their newer stuff, but I definitely see why this is such a classic.
Wow having gone through their full disco now, this is without doubt their magnum opus. I had second thoughts about this after Hangman's Hymn and Scenes From Hell. But God!, this is just flawless, not a single false note here. This album is near perfect. Sigh will never probably top this.
Fuckin weird, but I enjoy this album, never heard weird nor complex album like this before, that riffs especially first track pretty good, make me want to
Hey if someone know similar album like this, share it pls.
What can I say, this is just perfect. There's heavy metal, rock'nroll, black metal, glitch hop, jazz fusion, synth, old-fashioned classical music, symphonic touches... I believe there's some videogame soundtrack inspiration in some tracks. And it works. Many bands try to accomplish what Sight achieves here with no effort, originality without going unnecessarily complex, innovation without weird structures, just throwing awesome songs at your face.
Wow this is crazy - every song is different. So many instruments, so many styles, and it's all so good!
Favorite songs: "Scarlet Dream", "Corpsecry-Angelfall", "Ecstatic Transformation", "Dreamsphere (Return To The Chaos)", "Slaughtergarden Suite"
