Mastodon Crack The Skye

In my opinion, the most overwhelming album by Mastodon is "Leviathan." "Blood Mountain" is a lethal record, but it’s too technical, convoluted, and perhaps a bit soulless for my tastes. On the other hand, "Crack the Skye" has fascinated me from the very beginning… there are many psychedelic openings… it’s a beautiful journey; I particularly enjoyed the '70s sound that the band members have reconstructed with vintage guitars and amplifiers. The fact that it’s a veeeery homogeneous album, all in the same tone, is a double-edged sword: after a certain number of listens, it actually becomes tiring and you stop playing it! Fortunately, the album’s length isn’t excessive, but I would have appreciated a bit more color; it would have been perfect.

Haha, the jokes weren't bad at all! ... I'm really sorry for the reviewer, but this place is frequented by a bit of a prankster crowd; they should have seen it coming.

Pain Of Salvation BE

I would have liked to write a review of this album, but I've always felt a sort of respect and fear in doing so; this album is extremely complex in its themes and (let me say it) also pretentious. The talent of Pain of Salvation is undeniable, and this album is a clear example of that... the problem is its excessive heterogeneity and perhaps even its extreme conciseness (such a "universal" theme couldn't be exhausted even in 3 whole CDs of music); for this reason, "BE" sometimes leaves me with a bitter taste in my mouth and at other times instead excites me.

The review is overly brief; the album is definitely beautiful, and the band, I can’t say otherwise, is among the best in post-rock/instrumental out there.

Pain Of Salvation The Perfect Element Part I

Great album, but listening to it all at once is a torture... among other things, it’s very poorly recorded. However, Daniel is an exceptional singer and gives the whole work a touch of great class. I'm eagerly anticipating their next project, which should be announced soon.
