Their sound was really different on that album, so it makes sense that the long time fans wouldn't like it. Was the first album with the new singer too, right?Kinda funny that, seeing as how most people think it’s their weakest album (though weak by their standards is still IMO quite strong by most other bands.)
Pelagic (as an entire album) and Hadopelagic II (as a song) are probably my favorites, though Statherian, Ptolemy Was Wrong, Roots and Locusts, Eternal Recurrence, and Triassic are up there.
Seems like the new album is gonna be about the Holocene in general. Lyrics are great as always.
I've been listening to these guys a lot recently. They came up in my playlists before this album, but this one eased me into them the most. However when I finally gave Precambrian, Pelagial and Phanerozoic a true listen I was absolutely blown away. Some of my favorite songs from these albums
Really dig those signature transitions, like 6:38 on Rhyacian, 7:00 on Nacent and 5:40 for Dermersal... Metal as fuck
