Show should be sweet. I dig the new rosetta record.

Singing is a little bit better. Not gonna lie there is a track that made me think of Linkin Park.

The addition of all the synth stuff is pretty cool. That introduction on track one into the slamming riff opening track two was lit.

D.o.S. -- how was the show?

Just listening to the whole album now and it is killer thus far.

Didn't go early gig + working late + prospect of flying solo + no prebought tckets made me a stay at home homie.

Did see slayer last night though and they ruled

Saw Slayer over the summer. Was surprisingly great.

The more I listen to this album the more I think they shouldn't have split it in two. You can feel the lack of a second part. That said I'm loving what we got so.

Age of Sea Spiders sounds like a Trapt B side.

Or a Leviathan-era Mastodon track name.

No I mean it actually sounds like tepid butt rock.

My biggest gripe with this band is the clean vocals. They’re just oozing the butt rock vibes.

[goroth]

I like the vocals.

You lot are as bad as Kevin the Sheep.

[D.o.S.]

That song is literally the soundtrack to Kevin, runt of the litter, starting to get on the 'roids and pushing people around.

:LOL:

There is a lot to like about this record. The clean vocals are not the backbone, that’s for sure.

I own all their previous record and thin Precambrian prob is my fave. However, I like the new record so far. I really did like Pelagial instrumental wise but vocal-wise not as much. I think the singer has the tools but just tends to overwork things. The vocals on the new album are a lot better imo. The melodies and screams just feel "simpler" in a good way. "I am super fucked and all I want it to sleep now" is some of the worst lyrics I've heard in a looooong time., especially in this context. But apart from that. I like it!
