The most aurally offensive aspect of this album is its tendency towards pointless, fusion-inspired guitar melodies that interrupt the flow and just make it harder to take the songs seriously, as is the case for 'Divination and Violation' among others. Even the introduction of a saxophone into the slow and atmospheric 'G.lobal O.verhaul D.evice' ends up failing, as the song drags on without any interesting ideas, a problem that's exac...more |

With a band as experimental as Cephalic Carnage, there's always the risk of going a bit too far and ending up unpalatable, and unfortunately that seems to be the case with their most recent release, 2007's 'Xenosapien.' There's nothing inherently wrong with it, but the band strikes an uncomfortable balance between bland grindcore and experimental tracks that bite off more than they can chew, and ultimately don't even deliver in any kind of satisfying way.

Perfect Cd almost 
bit mellow for deftones fans. Hard rock to the full None Gets stuck in your head Gets stuck in your head Great album, very good keyboards, and very memorable chants. Not great mastering. Approachable technical metal, with great performances and attitude. Some songs feel restless. Some of the band's better songs. An arbitrary and lifeless collection.III Tri-logy - Kingston Wall
Eclectic and strong. Some dull moments and failed experiments.
Throbbing Gristle: Part Two: The Endless Not
None
Between Two Worlds - I
Talented performers. But you wouldn't know it from listening to this.
Halflife - Lacuna Coil
A couple of decent songs. All pretty samey.
Catalyst - New Found Glory
A terrific album of bouncy pop punk fun. If you dislike nasal vocal performances then you probably won't like this.
Discouraged Ones - Katatonia
Successful change of direction without losing artistic integrity. Songs tend towards similarity and over-repetition.
In A Reverie - Lacuna Coil
Average gothic doom metal. Still authentic to the genre.
Into The Purple Valley - Ry Cooder
Great Guitar Playing and Interpretation of American Classics Vocals occasionally a bit dodgy
Last Fair Deal Gone Down - Katatonia
Improved instrumentation, tighter focus. Most songs follow the same structure.
Swamplord - Kalmah
Meaner and more reliable equivalent to Children of Bodom. It's still partly a copy-cat act.
