Negative Positive
Title: It's sad such albums get 5*...
Review: The only reason for 2* instead of 1* is that there are plenty much worse bands out there. At least all of the band's members are accomplished musicians (I never liked Swano or Akerfeldt's other bands though, including much hyped Edge of Sanity).Anyway - monotonous music, songs indistiguishable from one another, simplistic and uninspired drumming, excessive (almost silly) guitar distortion and AWFUL processed vocals - what not to like about it? Oh, by the way - "artwork" looks like their label didn't want to pay for it, at all.It's such a shame people don't even want to know a little bit more about genre of which they consider themselves "fans". ANY album from Vomitory or Fleshcrawl is light years ahead of this childish crap. Amazing Swedish band Runemagick, which released 7 (!) excellent albums, is practically unknown here in US...Sad, sad, sad.P.S. By the way, their debut EP was better than this.
Is the review positive or negative?
