You know, weirdly, initially I was going to reply "yeah, I can probably agree with that", but while I was writing it, I realized that I have a hard time putting DT12 into the same bracket (stylistically) as ToT.
Like, ToT was DT's Adrenaline Mob album. Balls to the wall, heavy hitting. DT12, in my book, is not that. Take for example AFTR. It's *supposed* to be the soft tune on the album, but it simply can't because it's so brickwalled.
So, in my opinion, the reason why ToT and DT12 look somewhat close to each other is because ToT was a hard-hitting album in an area of good production, whereas DT12 is a varied album in the age of terrible production.
