Theocracy - As the World Bleeds: I really like this, it's mostly just in-the-face guitar riffs and great power metal vocals. I don't like the calmer songs such as The Gift of Music as much though.

Karnivool - Sound Awake: No roulette entry, but I found myself revisiting this after a long ass time, I used to dislike the vocals but it suddenly just clicked and it's fucking amazing now.

Caligula's Horse - Bloom: God those first 2 tracks are both amazing and flow perfectly into eachother. I'd be lying if I said I didn't involuntarily smile when that awesome Marigold riff kicked in. Rest of the album is also really good, of course.

Listening to it for the first time thanks to Prime Music, never listened to TesseracT before and I`m very impressed so far (I`m at "Nocturne" at the time of writing). I`ll probably buy the CD someday when I am able to pick this one up.

Probably my most listened to album in the last few years, just excellent.

I had decided to check roulette albums only after I finished digging into my fav artists' discographies, but felt the urge to listen to this. Holy shit this is even more crushing that what I had expected. And I'm loving it  :hefdaddy

welcome to the club  :hat
Dying in A-Minor is one of the least heavy songs though but it's probably the most atmospheric and thus my favorite  :lol

this was... alright. way too long, for sure, and the segregation of tracks into either the heavy or light disc was not a wise idea because it makes both discs monotonous. there were a few good songs on each disc but I found myself bored with the second disc and not too impressed with the first. not likely to revisit this one or listen to it again, tbh

Yup.  New DT for me a few times today.  Need to soak it in.

Oh yes, I was actually surprised to hear there were loads of heaviness on this album, but I enjoyed it a lot anyways.

Now playing:

Sacul's Roulette - Round 4

One of these songs is just fantastic. The others suck ass tho.

gave this one another listen, and... yeah, it's quite good. Though it'll be a bit pricey to get a physical copy of this by the looks of it, $18 is the cheapest i've found.

I didn't listen to this for a while because I overplayed it a bit, but it's still amazing.

After hearing TA 4 times i'm taking a small break out of it, because I don't want it to wear itself out. Instead i'm listening to another new album.

Damn, this is dope. Way better than their last one - sounds like a hybrid of Mezzanine and 100th Window.

UFO - no heavy petting

Easily my favorite of the Schenker studio albums.
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol
