Following up a magnum opus like Ænigma is absolutely no easy task, and it took In Vain five years to come up with a fourth album. A make-it-or-break-it moment. How did they fare?

musclassia Staff Posts: 7621	Permalink 26.02.2018 - 14:21 Rating: 7 musclassia Staff Posts: 7621 Agree with above poster, nearly through Currents and whilst this is fine, and a bit more diverse than what I've heard from them before (don't remember a song as heavy as Blood We Shed gets at times on the last album), Aenigma is a far more interesting album. Nothing on here approaches the infectious quality of Against The Grain. The standout track is the one that's a sequel to a track from Aenigma (Times Of Yore Pt. 2), although Origin is a good track too. Loading...
metalbrat Posts: 928	Permalink 02.03.2018 - 13:27 Rating: 9 metalbrat Posts: 928 I haven't listened to Aenigma so this seems to be a classic album to me. More than half of the album are compelling repeated listens. ---- In the beginning I was made of clay. Then I bit the apple and they changed me to metal 🤘 Loading...
EXEbeast Posts: 22	Permalink 08.03.2018 - 12:10 EXEbeast Posts: 22 After lots and lots of listens, it got way better. Actually, I like it even more than Aenigma. Btw, the bonus tracks are #4 and #7, not the last 2 tracks. Bonus tracks: 04. And Quiet Flows the Scheldt 07. Ghost Path Loading...
