2 stars Always when i write a bad review i feel like it's wrong or offensive. In this case, i feel like the music is wrong and offensive. It's not hate, it's not that i didn't give it a chance. I simply cannot listen to this. It's impossible for me. Every highly rated album will recieve a bad review at some point so that takes my guilt away. If you like this album or band, do not continue reading because i will be raw. This is probably the most unbearable album/band i've ever heard. The aesthetic is so immature! The hysterical mood just grinds my gears. The singer specially makes me want to punch him. So hysterical... so pretentious... and everything is so fast and loud it makes me feel like they dont have any taste for music; like they composed this just for sport. Like they were faking, pretending they were gonna write a revolutionary modern album: but it's horrible. An insult to beauty and ugliness too because ugliness can be an aesthetic but this is not the case. So many people rated this 5 stars. WTF?! The most overrated album in progarchives is this one. I have no doubt. 1 bothering star.

EDIT 8 YEARS LATER: I still don't like this band but it's not that bad. For fans only i guess
