It's better than Colors.

>>127244417 (OP)
not even as good as the silent circus

>>127244417 (OP)
Alaska is their best album so that's not saying much.

>>127244435
All three might be worse than The Parallax II.

>>127244417 (OP)
Correct.
>>127244435
Incorrect,

Incorrect.
>>127244467
Incorrect, but less incorrect than the previous two posts.

I predict that their new album is going to be a top 5 album of theirs

rapist band

>>127244417 (OP)
Damn so fucking based. Factual observation. Parallax 2 is also better than Colors but not as good as Great Misdirect which remains their best by many miles.

>>127246169
Correct.
>>127246591
Correct.

Colors Live is also better than Colors.

I really liked the new single, very excited for the new album

>>127244417 (OP)
It's not better than Colors but Mirrors through Disease, Injury, Madness is better than anything on Colors

>>127246591
100% this. i think Colors only gets the love it does because it was the first to do that sound. the only got better with Great Misdirect and The Parallaxes

Coma Ecliptic is underrated

>>127247055
The first single had me worried not gonna lie.
With Dustie out I was expecting the band go 2000% prog wank especially since they signed to InsideOut but if the rest of the new album is anything like the second single we're in for a good time.

>>127244417 (OP)
This and Parallax 2 are too inconsistent to mog Colors.

>>127247789
excellent prog rock vibes on that album
>>127248081
i'm thinking we'll get more like Colors II which i won't complain about.

>>127244417 (OP)
hahaha no Swim to the Moon is far too indulgent

>>127244417 (OP)
Protest the Hero > BTBAM

>>127251055
great, go talk about it in a Protest the Hero thread
>>127251053
this. TGM is fantastic except for the utter mess that is Swim to the Moon

>>127247789
It's rated just fine

>>127251053
>listening to prog metal
>complaining about indulgence

>>127252626
just because I like salty food doesn't mean there's no such thing as too much salt.
fucking retard.

>>127246790
They are so fucking good live even 20 years in, they are the prototype for meal bands aging gracefully live

>>127247789
TP1 does most of what Coma Ecliptic was doing better than Coma Ecliptic IMO. Still, I do love The Ectopic Stroll

House Organ is one of the better shorter songs they've done

>>127256838
>>127256853
>House Organ
>Yellow Eyes
>Blot
>The Proverbial Bellow
>The Grid
all fantastic tracks but this album will (already has) go down as their most forgettable. also splitting the album was the most retarded thing ever, clueless label experiment.

>>127257871
The Grid was a big one for me around when it came out

>>127256838
LOL

>>127256838
I hate Sumerian so much it's unreal

>>127256191
white walls is a mess too but at least it doesn't last 20 fucking minutes lol
its high points are higher too

>>127256140
saw them on the colors tour last year and they were immaculate, not one note out of place. the new dude had Dustie's parts down pat.
