My first impressions were that it's better than Miss Machine but not quite as good as Ire Works. That was late last night though and I was really tired. I'm listening again.

Every album these guys release just keeps getting better and better.

Alfred · 05-12-2010, 10:05 PM

Yeah, this is for sure my favorite album so far this year.

It is good, but I still prefer Ire Works. It seems like they were just about to hit their stride with Gil Sharon, and then he left.

Simply, another masterful record by TDEP. Nothing really struck me as new, rather this is a band sticking to it's formula...and what a formula it is! The riffs are just as heavy and inspired as Calculating Infinitely, but this time the melodies,(except for the first part of "Widower") have a harsher edge. "Parasitic Twins" could have been a better closer, the psychedelic guitar riffs slowly fading out in the end just didn't do it for me, so I'm with great.
