    Technical Metal Poll - Revisited !!

    yes, atomized dream is a gem... a blast from their past + a fresh twist on every single piece !!! ...but i still prefer Spatial/Design the most... don't know why really... listening to it always gives me a hightened sense of musical perfection... even with all the sloppy recording in mind...

    Technical Metal Poll - Revisited !!

    * When it comes to Canvas Solaris, i'd rather choose Spatial/Design as their best, but the majority of C.S. fans prefer Penumbra Diffuse... as such, it is the one in the poll !

    Technical Metal Poll - Revisited !!

    After an almost 2 year hiatus from this forum, and in desperate search of the best tech metal albums out there, I come back to you with another way more comprehensive poll after the one i posted almost 3 years ago in November 2005 which excluded alot of the major players in this genre.

    You want technical? Behold...The Arctopus!!

    It seems like i've left a legacy in this forum, one based on putrid retaliations... "The Dark Lord always leaves his mark" :heh: !! (LOL) ... I got the BTA album as well.. and i think it's pretty darn good... although the final mix is still kind of rough and not very pro (my opinion ofcourse)...
