I registered on UM solely for this forum 10 years ago, around the same time as the Odyssey was released. The band has changed a lot since then, and I have probably been part of the growing negativity toward just that and the decline of prog metal in general. I've never flamed anyone or anything...

Underworld is one of the greatest neoclassical symphonic prog metal albums ever recorded. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRvFrkie-Zw u c wat i did ther

good review although I think swan song is the best one. "meandering", "without cohesion" could be applied to any song on the album.

Swansong is by far the least plain song on the album.

I think it's their weakest effort. Nothing memorable. Lacks strong melodies, especially from the keyboards which sometimes feel unnecessarily prominent at times (when it's just chords and layers). Riffs feels like it's all chugga-chugga-chugga. Good guitar playing but that truly counts for...

Same. Quite impressive, actually.

I've never had that with symphony x...

yeah the new maiden is a double CD. I think it's very cool.

hey maybe "Big Daddy" knows his stuff :Spin:

APSOG is perhaps the best prog metal album of all time.

what is this radio rock bullshit ffs romeo

that album cover has strong dance of death vibes crappy 3d renders :D

:rock:

yeah new Arcturus is good. thought it would suck cuz of production but it works.

decent verses, mediocre chorus. it's just a single. metal singles are always the worst. still got some hope for the full album!
