Good review man. I love their last album but this one just doesn’t suit my tastes. Its a shame really that most of these chaotic albums didn’t come out five years ago or more cause that was when I was really into the challenging stuff.

The orchestra is a layer above the death metal most of the time. I like it, it’s very somber and chaotic, but makes things very confusing – I can’t really focus neither on the metal nor the orchestra, and I guess that isn’t the point, but still it’s a fucking hard listen. It’s pretty interesting and I kinda enjoy it at times, but all in all I wish this had a more traditional structure and a harmonic blending of all the elements.

“Jodi-Is that good or bad?”

It’s good…bad for me, because I’m behind, but I’m glad for the recommendations

I remember Flight of the Jesus Dog- still give that cd an occasional spin – and Happy Face- same sound. Thanks for the kind words and reading the places I write.

Mark – I second “Omnicide”. Brutal Death done right. Has gone pretty much under the radar as far as I can tell.

Erik – Thank you from the bottom of my black heart for all of your recommedations throughout the years (from DigitalMetal to Metal Review). I’ve probably purchased upwards of at least 100 (or more) albums due to your reviews. That’s no sh*t. Keep em’ coming!

P.S.-Remember Flight of the Jesus Dog? Conglomeratorz?

Jodi-Is that good or bad? Vortex – you might check out thier previous albums and I THINK the classical stuff wasnt overlapping, but used between songs, which are still solid tech/brutal dm

Erik, I like how your reviews generally reference loads of other bands I need to check out

Wow, this is pretty rad. Brutal/tech death usually bores me to tears, but this is an interesting take on the genre. Kudos for actually hiring a string quartet instead of just using synths for everything.

The heavy stuff in the background sounds amazing! I say background because it’s completely drowned out by the chamber music. It’s a good idea but the chamber music is far too loud in the mix. I’d buy this if they had a metal only version.
