I Love Internet
4 stars This is one wicked band! During this currend decade I´ve been dissappointed with most of the album released by my favorite band(circus maximus, devin, fates warning, Dream theater, vangough to name a few) And the same goes for most new bands I´ve given a chance. But this one! This album has a real personality and possibly my favorite opening track of the decade so far. Thus far I have only listened to this album by these guys, I sure will check out the new album as soon as I get the energy to get my hands on the album. This album is excactly what I´ve been in the mood for lately - crazy and fast and aggressive and just completely messed up. Jorgen Munkeby has become one of my favorite screamers. There´s really something about his vocals that resonates with me in a way that very few others do. I´m sort of reminded of mars volta by the vocal melodies. It sounds to me like they´ve been created with a similar mindset.

I´d love to give this album 5 stars, but it just doesn´t have enough variation between tracks to get a five from me. Still I do strongly recommend this to anyone who likes a good dose of screaming in their prog. Also people who like jazz with extreme metal or the other way around should check this one out.

I Love Internet | 4/5 |
