Like that one review on metal archives "Death metal riffs in prog packaging". Anyway, this actually sounds pretty good, got me headbanging through the whole thing. The vocal style is just, is, like it doesn't change. Just standard vocals, but oh well.

Highlights

Obsidian Mantra - The Demon-Haunted World
Obsidian Mantra - False Spirituality
Obsidian Mantra - The First Disbeliever [Btw does the vocalist say "The truth I shall seek, I shall not believe"] Because I couldn't find any lyrics.

I'd love something like this, not Opeth though, I've been liking Katatonia's early stuff quite a lot, so something along this and early Katatonia.

Ayyyyy no problem!

Yeah I've always felt that it's really difficult to play an instrument + sing, so maybe I came off a bit harsh, but I still liked them, and like I said the record is amazing. I guess I'll check their latest album too!
