@Big Mel what's your thoughts on this one man? how do you think it stacks up to The Night's Gambit :ehh:



Well I made a big mistake yesterday when my CD arrived. I took it to the gym and listened to it for the first time there. Mind you it was like 80 degrees out in LA too. Album didn't at all click given those circumstances. Then I played it again at 10pm walking my dog and it started to make sense. Played it again sitting in the bathtub with a candle burning (my legs were sore from training) and it clicked in a major fukking way. I'm now playing it over coffee and I doubt I'll listen to anything else for a few days.


KA is very, very serious.


The Night's Gambit is still my fav from him. Any album with 'Peace Akki' & '30 Pieces of Silver' is going to be hard to top.

That's pretty much how I feel. I think the overall direction is very impressive but I don't know if it has the standouts that i kept looping back like crazy from TNG: 30 Pieces of Silver, Nothing Is, Jungle

fukk, 'Nothing Is' is such a great song. I'm gonna have to play that afterwards.


Can you believe there are people who say Nights Gambit was misstep?
