I don't 'get' that album at all but note its appearing on a few lists. The first track is okay and then its downhill fast to my ears.

a few more technically a 2022 release even though the CD,DVD and Vinyl release date has been put back to February. I've downloaded the MP3 and a like the album, maybe enough to scrape into my final 20. Arena - The Theory Of Molecular Inheritance now available on streaming platforms thankfully. Excellent album , probably will settle in my top ten. Gandalf's Fist - Widdershins never been a massive fan but I'm enjoying this a lot. Another one to consider for the lower placings |
