Totally agreed.

I would say that he most definitely has a working knowledge of song structure, harmony, and melody, but he doesn't know how to use it well.

Some of their stuff has a very tough sound. I don't think you'd be disappointed.

I probably wouldn't be, but that isn't the point. They'd have to be the greatest metal band ever to live up to the name.

Eh, Ocean Machine is a classic by any reasonable standard. Even Devin's haters at least appreciate what its going for, especially since it was conceived right around the time SYL was really taking off.

So much negativity around here though...sheesh.

I just think it's boring. I ain't trying to make a thesis out of it.

Last day, people! Anyone who hasn't yet run those Old Lady Drivers off the road, please get your reviews in by close of today if you can. Thanks!
We move on to the next album on Monday.
