Review:
One of the most influential bands in todays metal scene, the band that inspired the foundation of the djent scene, though i think djent has evolved from that starting point.
On their latest album, i think they r pushing themselves to think in new ways w their music, on some of the songs it works, but on others it doesnt.
Overall a rly good album, n the musicianship is inspiring.
