yeah me too at the first month and i will tell you why(i guess it's the same case with you here ...) because i expected that the album to be sthing else(like u i was LONGING for another " Resurrection Through Carnage" or sthing like that ) i even hated it at the time which happened to me once before with PL because i epected it to be more like V ; any way dude trust me when u put expectations you will always be disappionted no matter how good the album is because GREAT bands won't simply repeat them selfs they simply move to experiment another fields. in my opinion there are so many fantastic riffs in Fathomless , good drumming and every thing. if you would take an advice dude forget about Bloodbath for a while and when you feel that u need to hear them again try to listen to that album with an open mind as you don't even know the band and then u will find a masterpiece in your hand ...
