| A review by: | Troy Killjoy |
01. Living
02. Dying
03. Dead
Passion. That's what I is all about. Pure, unadulterated passion. Forget that I display musical ability and know-how that is rivaled by few. Forget that the ending to "Dying" goes from what can only be described as one of the greatest vocals jam sessions ever, to a beautiful, yet melancholic pots-and-pans epilogue. Forget that "Dead" is one of the greatest songs ever written. Forget that "Living" contains the perfect kitchen appliance riff. Forget that I quite possibly have the best voice in all of music. Forget that every moment of this demo-turned-album will make you stand in awe of what you're hearing. Why should you forget all that? Because none of it matters.
What matters is that my music connects with the listener on a level that no other band has ever obtained. Just what that level is can't be defined. It can only be felt. And the only way to feel it is to listen. And I do mean LISTEN. You shouldn't do so much as twiddle your thumbs during the play of this. You would only be hurting yourself. My only rivals in this department would be the immortal classical composers, such as Bach, Beethoven and Mozart. But I still beat them out.
I can't tell you how difficult it is for me to rate this at all. By doing so, I'm implying that I can be somehow compared with any other album by any other band. That is simply not true. I have given perfect 10s to bands that don't even register on the scale when compared to I. The very fact that I'm pretending to be worthy enough to even discuss my music is an unforgivable sin. No amount of words in this, or any other, language can begin to describe the tapestry of emotions on this, or any of my lyrics. My creation transcends not only metal, but art itself. This is the language of the soul.

I am writing to express my concerns about Deathday 666 and, more specifically, its apothegms regarding the worst sorts of pusillanimous charlatans I've ever seen. There are a number of reasons Deathday 666 isn't telling us as to why it wants to bombard us with an endless array of hate literature. In this letter, I will expose those reasons one-by-one, on the principle that an armed revolt against it is morally justified. However, I contend that it is not yet strategically justified. Deathday 666 has been going around claiming that advertising is the most veridical form of human communication. When challenged about the veracity of that message, Deathday 666 attributed its contradictions of the truth to "poetic license". That means "lying". Read more ›› |

This album paints a beautiful portrait of what is probably the greatest mind of our lifetime.

Living, dying, dead. That's just epic. I'm like totally sure Da Vinci's Mona Lisa was originally painted with corpse paint and that puritans changed her face from totally kvlt necro grim to a mysterious smile.

Written by X-Ray Rod on 01.04.2011 at 13:08 lol I had never read that review before, but I can understand why. So what do you reckon about this album, is "Living" better than "Dying" or would you rather be "Dead"?

Probably the most unoriginally original artwork in the history of music. I'll be sure to check them out.  I extend this train of thought for the review as well. There's no way you could've cop...sorry... taken inspiration from the Blackwater Park review from yesteryears, there's just no way... Troy, please write a review for my upcoming album, "Fury of Our Builder's Hand".

Troy, seiously, that is the greatest way to turn one the most ridiculous reviews ever written on metal storm into an actual review worth reading haha. +1 to the Blackwater Park comment. If you're reading this review and haven't read that review, go do so IMMEDIATELY. I remember when I read the Blackwater Park review back when I was getting into Opeth, even then I knew it was a worthelss review lol
