This album is amazing. I remember how i just had to get this when i saw this album at a store. And that's a feeling i don't generally get. It never gets old. And have you seen their live show? The singer is hangin upside-down from the metal frames of the stage while maintaining a perfect pitch. Insane. And his vocal performance is outstanding. Soft singing, tight singing, falsetto, growling and throat singing. And all in the same song by the same man. (plus his interesting hand-vibrato stuff)
