Definitely good, unique music man. The drumming is pretty fucking good, as is the shredding. Too bad we live in an area with close minded, fist-fucking rednecks and silly wiggers. Looking forward to hearing the cds. Later.

SUPPORTING THE TRUE HEAVY METAL UNDERGROUND SINCE 1992!!
THIS THING IS HUGE... MASSIVE... IT IS A MONSTER... Seriously this damn record took on a life of its own... it was telling US what to do... it is musically technical, and hard hitting, your vocals are really maturing into your own serious style, and this damn record almost put me in the Emergency Room, so this thing is frightening... I am like a proud papa... Lets take this weekend to stroke our own egos, and then start getting this thing unleashed on an unsuspecting public... it will be massive...
