so did I. I'm still pissed it wont be on vinyl.

 

[KeithTidd]

hmm, never heard of these guys. Sounds pretty cool. It kinda reminds me of mastodon mixed with some kayo dot.

 

[BrettT]

Fuck yeah...love this band.

Whip yourself!!

Then go listen to everything they've ever done. Fogdiver EP is a personal highlight for me.

Totally right, the Precambrian ''European edition'' booklet is one of the best I've ever seen and the album is just so good, I've listened to it a thousand times, really can't wait for Heliocentric.

I NEED TO HAVE THIS ALBUM.

 

[Wolfeman]

I'm a little pissed. I preordered months ago, and was promised delivery of it today, yet it's not showing it even shipped yet. I'm about to just run to best buy and buy it.

 

[Wolfeman]

Finally got it. Had a chance to listen to it about 5 times through today.

I really like it, very different from all the other albums(every album is vastly different from them anyway). I dig the clean vocals and slower/quieter songs. Guitar still sounds like Robins VH4/5150 combo. Awesome packaging even on the US version. I know Robin gets pissed off that the US marketing guys won't ever do what he asks, but I think it's pretty good compared to all my other cd's I own. Can't wait to get the vinyl, it's supposed to be awesome looking.

My only complaint is- way too short. I guess I was spoiled by the last album.

Also, the new singers voice sounds very similar to someone else, I just can't put my finger on it.

At moments i can hear a chris cornell vibe in there..

What really blew me away was Zatokrev's show. Swiss Doom/Hardcore band with czech lyrics. The heaviest thing I've ever witnessed.
The tone of the guitarists and the bassplayer was melting together to something unbelievable, of almost SunnO))) like quality.

Get Precambrian. The 2nd CD will blow your mind. And the first track on Aeolian is awesome too.
