Title: Boring as hell.........
Review: All members of this band are extremely talented musicians, but that doesn't necessarily mean they can write a GREAT song. At least, not on this album. The first two songs conjure up familiar riffs from other heavy bands and just twist them into 10-12 minute snooze fests...random guitar pyro, killer drumming but just DERIVATIVE and Loooong...almost just for the sake of being long. Check out Images and Words for true brilliance and catchiness.........also, the new kings of progressive metal with MEANING? Do yourself a favor and pick up KAMELOT'S: THE BLACK HALO....the singing and musicianship and songwriting put Dream Theater and all others in a sea of mediocrity.
Is the review positive or negative?
