Did you guys all fail creative writing in high school? I mean come on, is that the best you've got to describe this band?
The first time I heard these guys was when i got a copy of Entropia and One hour by the Concrete Lake. At first it was background music because I was listening to it at work, but slowly it began to consume my attention to a degree that forced me to leave it home. I moved it into my portable CD player to shutout the mess of humanity on the subways and was soon transported into world of unprecedented progressive paradise.
Dream Theater who? Indeed!!
Gildenlowe's vocals are beyond description, his power and range are gravity defying and his use of growls and breathy whispers is unparalleled. The music is so deep and richly layered that to this day, several years later I am hearing new parts and melodies that I had never discovered before.
The lyrics and subject matter have enough depth and social relevence that they could be part of a college course on environmentalism, sociology and world history.
My only problem is with the production and recording, because it is so dense it's hard to get good guitar tones, the tend to be overly brite and thin in order to cut through the mix. I would love to see what Andy Sneap would do with these guys.
There, now discuss those points for a while. What are you a bunhc of high school kids on lunch break making your rounds on your e-team?
"I like POS, they are kewl..." Come on!
