I just played this album again for the first time in....forever. Good stuff. I need Alchemist fans to tell me more about their other releases. I enjoyed this one will I enjoy the others?

I think you'll enjoy Austral Alien more than this one.

I think I prefer Tripsis... but it's probably because it was my First Contact with the band

Tripsis is imo Alchemist's worst, though still very good.

I see what you did thar I checked Tripsis out after listening to most of their discography, perhaps why it isn't a favourite. Still damn fine though.

Indeed, it's not my fav either, it's just a special relationship, I'd say

Of the 3 comparitive (musically) albums, Tripsis, Austral Alien and Organasm, Tripsis is the weakest. I'd have:

1. Organasm
2. Austral Alien
3. Tripsis

Of the 3 earlier albums, I'd have:

1. Lunasphere
2. Spiritech
3. Jar of Kingdom...which is pretty different to everything else they've done.

Having said all this, I love Alchemist and everything they do. They are some freakn' talented musicians!

Well, if what you say is true and considering I like Tripsis alot, the rest of their discography should kick ass! Thanks for the recs...

I love Alchemistand really miss them, but, luckily, their music lives on. As it was mentioned above, Tripsis is not the greatest masterpiece of this band, but still a very good record.
My personal favourites: Wrapped in Guilt, Anticipation of a High, Communchate, God Shaped Hole, Degenerative Breeding.

Here the guys have somewhat toughened up the guitars, rhythm and overall sound than on the previous album "Austral Alien". I feel a production affinity with the bands Fear Factory or Chimaira from the music. However, the unique face of Alchemist remains with its own trips into the secrets of the mind and soul.
