Title: No time to read reviews
Review: DT is one of the few bands that I go out and purchase their material without any advance knowledge of what is on the disc. It has been that way since 1992 when I&W was given to me as a gift by a true friend. Since then I don't bother reading reviews of DT until after I make the purchase and only then it is to find out what other fans are thinking and saying. Needless to say Train of Thought, with its darker sound and more intense edge is as good as any of the best metal albums out without the harsh "death-strangle-mumble" of much of the "heavy-metal" being broadcast and played on headbangers ball and similar. I guess I am showing my age when I complain about the state of todays rock and metal music when I say that much of what comes out is either way to "lite" or else way to hard. DT is the perfect blend of virtuosity and hard driven rock with a melodic core that I can listen to in the car with the wife and not have her tell me to turn it down. Anyway, enough said, go buy it.
Is the review positive or negative?
