Haken survivor! - Aquarius Round 1
« on: May 22, 2012, 06:03:33 PM »
So, I just decided to start with it right away. A Haken survivor, going through both albums and the demo. Top 3 of each album advances to the finals, as do the top two tracks of the demo (mainly because it's less known). 2 days for every round, starting with Aquarius, then Visions and then the demo.

Gogogogo!!

Aquarius:

1. The Point of No Return
2. Streams
3. Aquarium
4. Eternal Rain
5. Drowning in the Flood
6. Sun
7. Celestial Elixir


------------------------

My vote goes to Sun.
Hey dude slow the fuck down so we can finish together at the same time.  :biggrin:

Sun is the obvious choice. All the rest are way too good.

Hard to decide between Sun and Eternal Rain, but i'll go with the latter.

Sun is the least memorable. Celestial Elixir will win this.

I felt bad, but I have to vote for Sun. It's such a great tune, and would leave the album empty if it didn't exist, but I enjoy the rest a little more. I would want either Drowning or Elixir to win.

You people are crazy, Sun is amazing. The first three songs are by far the weakest! Couldn't decide between them so went with Streams.

Ariich is a freak, or somehow has more hours in the day than everyone else.

That's the problem with doing survivors with albums where all the songs are good. You don't really want to vote any of them out

Because Sun is awesome, but some other tracks are awesome too.
That said, I agree with Rich a bit as well, the first three tracks are definitely weaker than Eternal Rain, Drowning in the Flood and Celestial Elixir.

What I don't get is people voting for Eternal Rain. Seriously? That's a top 3 song on this album.

Eternal Rain is my least favorite Haken song except for Portals. It's too fast and doesn't have that slow pace feel to it all the others have.

Maybe the instrumental is a bit fast but that only makes it more awesome. the rest of the song I find to be somewhat slow paced.

The intro and the verses are too. Chorus is nice though.
