OUR PUZZLING ENCOUNTERS CONSIDERED

Devastating. That's the first word that came into my head after hear Our Puzzling Encounters Considered by PsyOpus. Their extreme tech metal leaves you breathless for like 40 minutes. BUT there are many ways a record can devastate you: one way is smashing your ears and nearly make your head explode, and the other way is by doing something extremely well. PsyOpus mix both ways but it's more like an ear-smasher album.

When you have no experience listenint to tech metal, you won't pass the 5 minutes limit, you know it's not your thing if you get wasted on the first or second song. Chaotics sounds, no melody neither structure, screams everywhere, weird sounds, literally make one run from this album. I call this sound paranoia made music.

This record is hard to enjoy and makes me thing if people who likes this type of stuff are expecting to enjoy music , maybe their expecting something more or maybe im missing something. Don't take this serious, it's just an opinion. All tracks seems to be part of a looooong chaotic song, the technical ability and shredding is something i admirey, but it sounds like a jam or a sound check.

Siobhan's Song steal my heart by the way.
