Title: Promising signs
Product review: 2 1/2Another prog-metal release where I find myself rooting out any inspiring musical sections amidst flashy, talented metallic riffage and compositional duels. Purists may enjoy this more traditional, less open approach, where already a slight melodic transcendence raises the best sections of the album out of its calculatedly sludgy ruts (see title track's theme!), but the band would improve and open up still to even greater audiences in future releases.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
