You are not capable of appreciating any short of evolution wich is not the stupid scared crowd pleasing opeth advance wich is very patetic.
You know, that's pretty ironic... because i love Leprosy-era Death, and yet i also love the highly evolved and changed TSOP-era Death. I love COF's "Dusk and her Embrace", and yet i love the highly different and evolved "Midian".
Evolution is when something changes to keep up with the current changes in it's atmosphere, to evolve is to change for the better, and expand on what was before. Soilwork have blatantly simplified their music, and if you can't see that (you elitist bastard), then you are blind. APP and NBC have absolutely NOTHING over Steelbath or Chainheart...! You, my freind, are a dim wench!!
I may also like to add (in reference to my 'inability to accept evolution because i am eletist'), that i love old Dimmu Borgir, and i love new Dimmu even MORE and more over their evolution. Same thing goes for the evolution between Gorefest's first few albums... they are all highly different, and yet i love them all. The only time that i didn't accept 'change' or 'evolution' (as you so wrongly put it) is when the music is simplified, and their style is compromised, such as in the case of Gorefest, where they went for a highly primative form of grunge music.
Need i also mention Morbid Angel, and how i love EVERY one of their records, despite the fact that they have evolved possible even more than a band like Death did??
Misanthrope, get off your highhorse you elitist bastard, and open your blind eyes to the fact that while my opinion is different to yours on soilwork, that soilwork have IN FACT simplified their music. Regardless what you or I think, they have compromised themselves, and i personally wont accept that like you obviously do.
