Fave tracks, in no particular order: North Side Star Blue Walsh Toe to Toes Cold Dark Place In 2017, I found EoS disappointing, but LOVED this EP. Still do love this EP, but I'm happy to say I love the album too! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheAccountant Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 Scardust - Sands of Time I believe this is the first album from this group and Strangers, which I listened to yesterday, is the 2nd (and most recent) album from them. I liked this album but not a much as Strangers which (in spite of my comments of the occasional harsh vocals) I really liked a lot. Best song on this album for me is either the title track, or "Hourglass" or "Gift Devine". Good album but Strangers is much better. I really like this group (in spite of my comments about the occasional harsh vocal). The vast majority of the vocals are clean and those I really enjoyed. Still not certain if they are symphonic metal or prog metal. But they do both very well (IMO). Since I like Strangers more it tells me they are moving in the right direction - a very good sign. A group I will have to keep following. Their is a lot of potential here (IMO). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Entre_Perpetuo Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 The Warning - Queen Of The Murder Scene (on vinyl) Really I've grown very fond of this record. So much great mood and melody and it's a really sick modern rock album that ISN'T OVERPRODUCED. Ugh. Yes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluefox4000 Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 Mastodon-Crack the Skye (10/10) The discussions led me here. I still stand by this is the best place to start if your not a fan of harsh metal vocals. I mean they're used but far more Sparingly. Mostly clean singing here. my fav. Yea i wouldn't recommend early Mastodon if you hate being screamed at, lol I wouldn't even recommend blood Mountain to people who hate harsh singing. i know it's a fav but it's still sludge metal at it's heart. CTS is an album for who like their prog/metal/ leaning closer to prog. Mick 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
