Reviews & Discussion

Review by Alastis Jan 17, 2005 (edited over 7 years ago)
For the first time, i read about this Boston band in the local newspaper and decided to give it a listen. They are certainly worthy of praise and appreciation and far from being Neurosis clones as some people label them. Each album is conceptual - it have its own subject (for example - water or skies). In terms of vocals, Aaron Turner provides screaming/whispered vocals in the vein of afromentioned Neurosis, but the band is also adding ambient interludes between some songs. Hopefully, with the release of their new album, they will get more attention.
