The vocals are mostly harsh here... somewhere between a shout and a scream which ocasionally turn into fragile sung vocals reminiscent of mid-90's midwestern emo and offer a welcome relief (plus giving you something to sing along to!). The highlight of the album (and any PTW live show) is the track 'Nerdy' which uses all of their elements of the (now somewhat overused) 'beauty and the beast' style of songwriting...
But I'd say this album was more like Beauty...more |

In 1999 Nu-metal was riding high in mainstream rock and metal circles and the over-saturation of bands of that style started to begin. Also at this time Poison The Well created their highly influential full length debut 'The Opposite Of December' which ironically enough; eventually lead to an over-saturation of it's very own years later. The fresh blend of shimmering metallic-hardcore borrowing equally from both punk and metal mixed with personal, reflective lyrics and was topped off with stunning artwork to boot.

Songs are live and there are some comic changes that have been made. 
Audio quality has suffered slightly and jokes may be controversial. Great songs, Great band A bit full of themselves Jones's voice, one great and some good tracks Does get repetative Great tracks -------- vintage classic MF DOOM not much replay valuePagan - Cruachan
Combines folk and metal in a satisfying fusion. Evidently searching for a more mainstream style, and failing as a result.
Parallel Minds - Conception
Powerful and creative prog-power metal. Still predictable to an extent.
Paris - The Cure
New Wave & Post-punk - 2000
Phi - Truckfighters
Excellent guitar work, instrumentally the album is brilliant. Not the most original album you'll ever hear, a fair few vocal weaknesses.
Postcards From Hell - Get Amped
An excellent display of melodic pop punk. Those that don't like pop punk will probably absolutely hate this.
Prepare To Be Let Down - Ruiner
A decent album of hardcore punk, incredibly fast and fun. Not the best album of this sort you will ever hear, no real depth of intelligence.
Procession To The Infraworld - Chasm
Solid death metal performance. Less creative and thrilling than the last album.
Punishment For Decadence - Coroner
Great guitar performance from Tommy Vetterli. Still fairly standard thrash.
Pure Rock Fury - Clutch
Grunge - 2001
Onwards To The Spectral Defile - Cirith Gorgor
Melodic black metal without being cheesy. Over-reliance on traditional forms.
