Topic: Beyond Twilight - FTLOAATM Posted: June 29 2006 at 23:45 |
Is the album worthy of the praise its getting? We have a relatively
unknown band releasing something that has climbed quite rapidly up the
charts, with a 4.8 rating but only a measley 30 something votes. It
lacks the 200+ votes needed to really compare it to the top albums in
the Progressive genre.
I've given a review and I find the album stunning. Full of life and
different textures, and pretty much very keyboard oriented. It's a
really fun and engaging listen, at least it was for me. Everyone can
find at least one thing they can enjoy out of this album, as theirs a
broad range of things going on here.
I'm hoping others will find the time to listen to the album and review
it. I don't really know if its worthy of this early praise or isnt
praised enough.

Its very good, but I need to listen to it more to have an opinion...
I can already say that the composition of the whole is quite uniqe...
Plus it contains strong melodies and memorable passages.

I found it unbearably boring, but ultra-bombastic symphonic prog-metal isn't always my thing, so don't take my word for it.

It is decent and at the very least is interesting to listen to for the first time.
