HAKEN: Affinity

My only qualm with this disc is that the pacing feels a little off for me. A bit more uptempo would be sublime perfection. As it stands it's only normal perfection.
 
I have it. It's my first taste of this band. It isn't bad but for some reason I can't tell if I like it. One song, I forget the name, is amazing. I think it's the last song on the album. But I need to give the entire thing more time I guess.
 
Lapse is over the top incredible. This is album of the year so far and I don't see anything outside of Disperse or the new Devin Townsend being a serious threat to taking it down a notch.
