Oh seneca, how you've warmed my heart this evening.
Which CD should I pick up first?

Orion....that's the one with a bunch of power chords and boringly harsh vocals, isn't it?
Just listen in order. They're all really good.
It's like the apex of the story and is the most emotional song on the album imo. The buildup at the beginning is so epic. The part where the drums first come in after the first minute or so is one of my favorite moments on the whole album. And then the way Casey's voice has that slight crack in the first "fail" during the first chorus... so raw and intense.And the lyrics are the perfect description of what's going on (i.e., a naive "country" kid experiencing sex and women for the first time ever and having no idea how to react to it and just being completely overwhelmed)

I am serious, and don't call me Shirley.
As frequently happens, Super Dude nailed it.

prog sucks
The other singer is Cameron Thorne from Naive Thieves (who, incidentally, is also the person who did all the cover art).If you like his super sweet voice as much as I do, they just released an EP themselves - check 'em out: https://naivethieves.com/track/grindin-2
So last night I noticed how horrible the compression is on Act III. Is the vinyl any better? I'll probably buy it anyways, but it'd be nice if the sonics on that are a lot better.

Ariich is a freak, or somehow has more hours in the day than everyone else.
I be am boner inducing.
Wut. I have NEVER thought of Act III as at all overcompressed.
It's obvious that some stuff found on the internet will be more compressed than the actual CD.
I wouldn't know... I haven't heard any of the Acts yet.

Quote from: ariich on September 22, 2011, 12:44:32 PMWut. I have NEVER thought of Act III as at all overcompressed. I always though it was a little bit just from looking at the tracks in audacity. It isn't nearly as bad as Mike says it is though.

The fact that you had to look in Audacity confirms that there's no problem.
