Negative Positive
Title: Unfortunately overlooked
Review: I never would have said that Echobrain's first album was particularly heavy until listening to Glean. Newsted's absence from the creative process is apparent. On the other hand, it allows for some spectactular dynamics and songs that hide heaviness behind beautiful sounds. "You're Sold" and "Heroic Dose" are a microcosm of this album--heavier sections and big guitars combining with soft, warbling vocals and a swirling sound, constantly backed by outstanding drumming.Not like much music out there in that Echobrain still refuses to be pigeonholed. That's not even criticizing other bands, but rather an admiration of their versatility.
Is the review positive or negative?
