Never been a fan of the extreme vocals of metal music. But guys like Swanö makes me look past that with his incredible instrumental work in the songs.
I totally dig this moontower record, although I think (don't molest me for doing so) the synthesizers are a little bit too high in the mix, but it doesn't bother me that much.
Does anyone here realize this entire album was made to sound like Neo-Prog meets Death Metal? Does anyone here know what Neo-Prog is without looking it up?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
it's like..... pop "wannabe" death metal.... as a Slayer, Overkill, Megadeth fan I've got to mention I'm totally insulted by it, somebody was silly enough to claim it's "genius"... genius how, their is no talent evident in this music at all from instrumental to vocal mundane on every level.
a super bad mix of 1970's disco with 1990's thrash.......a total joke.
@bloat3d I mentioned in the tags section, this is Progressive Death Metal, it's supposed to combine death metal style instrumentation and vocals with electonic, ambiental, dark ambiental, jazz etc depending on the sub-genre of the prog metal the band chooses to follow. The fact that you're so stuck in your Slayer, Overkill, Megadeth world makes this style insulting to you. I;m a fan of Slayer, Megadeth, Overkill too but I'm far from being stuck only and ONLY in the thrash metal area.
@LordXerpentoR i agree with you so much, i my self am a huge fan of megadeth, slayer& metallica but i do like very much other genres&subgenres of metal: viking metal, prog technical metal, prog death with dark ambient elements... this day im exluslively lisetning to acid jazz& metal bands such as Pestilence,nocturnus, spiral acrhitects, amorphis, nightingale, ajatara. the point is: as time goes by we get to explore new things in life and to get rid of the deffensive unflexible attitudes.
@bloat3d for the record, I also like Destruction, Sodom, Onslaught, Deliverance, Razor, Attomica, Mekong Delta, Anacrusis, Coroner, Morbid Saint(Morbid Angel too, don't confuse them) from the thrash metal area, so you can't blame me for not beint a thrash metal fan. But I like to listen to more than that. I listen to almost all sorts of metal, especially progressive metal, progressive death metal, technical progressive death, etc. Give it time, maybe you'll develop a taste for progressive stuff
@bloat3d Getting creative and trying new things as opposed to retrying the same ideas is "wannabe" now? Adding lead synth sections is "disco"? Bloody hell you are narrow minded
@bloat3d you remind me of when i was 14. today the difference between you and me is that in addition to my unconditional undisputed loyal attitude&respect to MegadetH, SPEULTUR and SLAYER im also a huge fan of Dan Swano.
if you don't like him than get the hell out of here, easy like 1,2,3
@Megadedly megadeth, slayer, sepultura, kreator....and metallica ))there's nothing wrong with them! i love'em just like i love korn, sum41, limb bizkit, lady gaga&justin bieber!! nooooooooo, just kidding, well, i still love metallica just like i love different bands from different spheres: deicide, death, king diamond, iced earth, pestilence, thy serpent, limbonic art, enslaved, vanden plas,... and into jazz, funk, bossa nova....the meaning is: i love what i like ))and i do what i do.
@anahowana I'm just saying Metallica is way overrated and aren't really worth paying so much attention to when there are about 6 billion people in the world, and tons of other greater metal bands.
@bloat3d just like most of slayers albums then, no talent evident anywhere... go listen to viraemia, necrophagist, prokofiev, or sth if you want talent. this is genius however much more genius than any random solo mr. kerry king has ever fingered..
@bloat3d -- Dude, you obviously don't know your shit. Dan Swano has released, produced, and/or guested on over 75 albums in this genre. Check his wiki page for a list. He's highly respected by those in the know. Too bad you're not one of them.
