I really can't understand this album, I know it's more of an experience and not re-playable, but I really can't get much feeling out of it. Sometimes an album being abrasive works and sometimes it doesn't, On this album it more often doesn't.

Bloated album, songs either lacked ideas or didnt know how to continue them. Each time a song started it felt new and exciting then nothing would come of it. Honestly the second half of Void was close to perfect, and really excited me for the rest of the album. The first half of void builds tension with repeating string sections and fast percussion, then dropping you into the second half containing heavy guitars complemented with descending vocal melodies. The song writing felt amazing however ... read more
