i'd say about two thirds of both the s/t and Octane are fantastic. love me some that stuff.
every 5th SB release is epic and strong as fuck front to back. so,
X.
for some reason, I haven't really given the latest one much of a chance. im still not sure what to think of Ted as their frontman.
but giving it a chance is probs about to change. my best bud who lives in china was looking for a new band recently, and I guess since I was slow on making a suggestion, he somehow stumbled upon Spock's latest all on his own and apparently loves it(!?). he starts sending me messages about the band, asking what I think of them n what not. anyway, im tripping out, cuz they aren't anything close to what this guy finds "palatablllllllllllle". there's hundreds of bands I woulda considered showing him before spock's. so ya, his "new favorite album" has me re-intrigued.
