Was pleasantly surprised when the vocals kicked in. Was fully expecting some growly type of shit after that intro. Have to hear more tracks to get a better feel.
 
I stumbled across the 1st release from Simulacrum called "Master and the Simulacrum" and was damned impressed with it and play the album on my show quite a bit. The 1st album was released in very early 2012 if I remember right and I am really looking forward to this one.
 
I loved that intro. Then the singing began. He's so overmatched by the rest of the band and doesn't really have a chance. His attempts in the beginning to sound like angry Russ Allen were not great and when they hit the chorus he sounds a bit off key and strained, but then that was a strange arrangement. I'd need to hear more from them, but of this were an instrumental release I'd be all over it.
 
I'm a bit of a late bloomer, but hey better late than not discovering this band at all. I got a chance to check out some other tunes and really liked this one, Behind The Belt of Orion.
