Necrophagist - Epitaph is damn good.

I know its obvious, but why? Why do people think its "sucks" or whatever when it cleary isn't? It an awesome album thats getting lots of shit because one album doens't live up to another. Typical really...

It's not really "awesome." I think the main thing on this album is that it TRIES to be technical. Onset hardly attempted it, and it sounded so coherent and "right."
 
basically I think that if you like Onset, you will like this one.

I do agree that they try a little too hard to be technical and we all know they can play, so there is nothing left to prove here. Some good consistent riffing would be amazing. At least for one song.
 
Actually I am talking about some groove like the end of Diminished to Be ... some solid riffing ... and hold the fucking thing :)
 
I liked it better when they had a drum machine, it sounded tighter, punchier. I actually like more the original Onset to the reissue. Too bad they chose to rerecord the drum tracks :rolleyes:
