Not "Nocturne II", but better?

2008年11月11日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

I was expecting to see THA's second album continue nudging metalcore into a new direction, but it doesn't. It all but abandons it. It seems THA has gone progressive. And they're very good at it. There's still riffing and screaming, but also vocal harmonies, keys, and greatly varied song compositions. Prog-metal-core? Prog-core?

I was really missing AJ, the departed guitar player, when I first listened to this. But how I understand the new direction better. This is definitely NOT a guitar-driven album. But whoever is putting the music together definitely knows what they're doing.

The vocals are outstanding, as on Nocturne. Ells is one odd dude, but his vocal expressions benefit from it. And there are lots of vocal harmonies that add depth to this album.

I'm not sure who writes the lyrics, but they're outstanding too.
"Forging insight
by pagan torchlight,
in cadence warlike

Rain down and cleanse my soul
Flow like a river"

Yeah! Bring the crescendo!

Don't pass this album up because you were expecting another metalcore album. This is good stuff.

My only knock: it's just 43 minutes long.

I recently bought all 3 of the Human Abstract's albums and unfortunately this one arrived first. I had listened to a few songs from every album on Spotify and what I heard off Digital Veil and Nocturne sounded very pleasing. I wasn't too convinced with the songs off of this album but thought "what the hell" and bought it cheap from Amazon Marketplace. I knew beforehand that this album had received unfavourable reviews but didn't want to let that stop me forming an opinion by simply listening for myself.

For me, this album is an absolute mess. An attempt seems to have been made at a Between The Buried and Me, progressive metal/hardcore type album and they've pulled it off terribly. I will use the song 'Breathing Life into Devices' as an example. This song has quite a chaotic sounding riff and is pretty driving but something's not quite right.. As if one of the members is rushing a bit or there's something off in the production. Then whatever happens at 0:58 with the seemingly random, sloppily played chromatic guitar runs starts to conjure further doubts in my head. Then at 1:30 the song unsuccessfully changes to some acoustic guitar chords and then goes into this semi-RNB type groove and it just doesn't work. Bands like Between the Buried and Me, in my opinion at least, have the knack of successfully pulling off stop/start quick-change riffs and sections and the ability to mix up different genres in a song. They seem to be able to know what will work and what won't (which is basically just another way of saying they have songwriting ability). The Human Abstract, on this album at least, do not.

I'm willing to admit that there are bits on this album that I enjoyed! Some cool riffs, some catchy hooks! But the way it's all been badly sellotaped together really grates on me. Going back to the production, this is another factor that really messes the album up for me. The guitars are neither here nor there. They're not quite upfront enough yet they're still somehow partially buried in the mix. The vocals are way too up front whilst the drums and bass just sound completely dead and flat.

One final criticism that I've already touched upon are the performances on the album, in particularly the guitarists. The melody that starts at 2:30 in 'A Violent Strike'... I'm pretty sure this is either out of tune or the guitarists vibrato is that of a beginner. These almost out of tune melodies pop up everywhere on the album which makes for a very unpleasant experience. Back to 'Breathing Life into Devices', at 4:05, these sweeps sound very amateurish and sloppy. I'm aware that there was a change in line-up for this album and it shows. Technical guitar parts are a part of this band's sound, so if they are to include difficult and challenging parts it'd be nice to hear them executed correctly. There is a very amateurish feel to the whole album and it has ultimately led to a very disappointing afternoon of music listening.

In conclusion, if you enjoy their other work, avoid this album. As a matter of fact, avoid this album like the plague if you're a fan of well-produced, well-written and well-performed music because this has none of it. A band can change style no problem, as long as the music's still good and the style change has been pulled off successfully, I'm all for it but this is not a case of "the band changed style so now I don't like them", this is a very poorly executed confused fart of a musical offering and for that, I give it 2 stars.

I cant write to much, I agree with almost all of the negative reviews on this subject. AS OTHERS HAVE SAID, THIS IS NOTHING LIKE THEIR PREVIOUS CD. The vocals suck. The songs are mediocre radio played washed up "safe" songs.
I would recomend getting the new Norma Jean or Protest the Hero before ths cd.
