  1. This is actually eminently tolerable . . . surprising. Between the sample I've listened to and the review, I'm still not that interested in it. But they could be onto something if they added a decent vocalist (i.e., a vocalist that sounds like the exact opposite of Periphery's).

  2. "eminently tolerable" - I like that ;)

    I come from a background of listening to hard jazz fusion, stuff like early Brecker Brothers, so I don't miss the vocals much.

    Check out the insane soloing here, it makes Shardborne looks positively demure.
