Arcane - Known​/​Learned

Absolutely amazing, doesn't get boring even a tiny bit. Jim Grey's peak performance.

I'm a big fan of these guys & jumped onboard with the crowd funding campaign they did for this album, yet I have mixed feelings about the final product.

Disc I [Known] is truly fantastic & has really grown on me with each subsequent listen, yet Disc II [Learned] bores me to tears every time I try & give it a spin. I personally felt there was no need for this to be a double album as they could've just released a more concise & consistently high quality normal length album that would've held the listeners attention for the whole duration.

I completely agree with your comments. There are some incredible moments on here, and I wish it was a little more concise. It would have been an excellent 40 minute album, imo.

Definitely with you, Nefarious/Diverge. Shame they split up
