DMM - Bilo 2
i dunno i don't get much out of this. doesn't really feel like there's an emotional core to it, i just hear "lots of djent riffs with a few other things" whenever i listen to this
I understand this, on many of the songs.
This is honestly a problem I have with a lot of proggy/metal instrumental stuff, though. This is why I never got deeply into LTE, either. In that case, many of the songs feel like a bunch of riffing and soloing without much of an emotional core.
Both artists make some very good music, for sure, and songs like Universal Mind and Wrinkle Maze do have a solid emotional core, but by and large I just don't connect too strongly with the songs on an emotional level.
