It has some great tracks (the first and last being awesome), and in between, I agree, it slouches somewhat., but even then, there's a lot of great things in there, both riff-wise and vocal-wise. I get what you're saying, but maybe after a few more listenings, you might like it more?Do you think I should give the newest Shatter Messiah more time to grow on me? I thought the opener was great but then everything seemed like filler.
+1Ah, right. Still a kickass album though.
Helstar- Sins Of The Past
Hammers of Misfortune - The Locust Years
I went to the CD release show in February. Fuck off.
the cd came out in june of 2006. scalzi and jaime left the band, which left cobbett to find 2 new members before he could play the release show in february.
Well, only two songs are new. The rest are re-recordings, but they sound amazing. They don't really have a processed, plastic sound.Holy Shit! I didn't know they had a new one, must find. Heard the sample on their site.
Yea, went to there site and read more about the the re-recordings. Does sound killer, must find and purchase.Well, only two songs are new. The rest are re-recordings, but they sound amazing. They don't really have a processed, plastic sound.

Well, many of my Christmas presents consist of albums from 2007, so I am nowhere near done with this year, so I can't quite make this list. In fact, I've probably only heard half of what I am set to hear. So, allow me to try this out:
Albums that I've heard from 2007 that will definitely be on the top ten list:
Patty Griffin - Children Running Through
Devin Townsend - Ziltoid the Omniscient
Albums that I have heard from 2007 that may make the list after further examination and comparison with other albums:
