I haven't seen the movie, either.

Monstrosity - Chaos [Plankton]

That four-minute intro seemed to say that you guys (I believe it was two of you) didn't have faith in your noodling to carry a track by itself so ya'll threw in some disposable instrumentation to save the track from complete uselessness. Should have cut about three-and-a-half minutes if that was the case.

So the album proper: you got some halfway badass riffs tbh but nothing that truly grabs the balls or has energy so maybe you should stick with noodling. Seems to be more your speed, otherwise you're a dad rocking thrasher to be sure. The dad rock thrash vocalist sends this home at least 500%. Is this even bland thrash or just prog metal with a thrash edge cause hey ya'll were listening to that a few years before when the genre was still relevant so it must still be relevant but we're 36 and don't even know anymore lol |m|>_<|m|!!!

Lol "terrorist ****s and extremist pigs" nice lyrics, Sargon of Thrashkkad.

BTW please make the singer stop or send him to 90s Flotsam and Jetsam.

I notice BjorkDaddy isn't defending the vocals.

That's the best write up that album has ever received. I'll be printing copies to hand out to my friends. Well, if you take into consideration that I personally connect to strangers I randomly meet on the street as friends.

It's not really possible to, you either like his voice or you don't

And for what it's worth I sing lead on "Diluted" and some say it's better than his vocals though I don't agree

They're not the best I've ever heard but it doesn't detract from my enjoyment of the songs we wrote. A lot of people have heard it in the ~5 years since we released it and I'd say there's a 70/30 split of people that like his vocals versus people that don't at all
