Latest Confessor is an interesting departure from the old stuff. I thought I'd hate it when I read descriptions of it (not as mind-twistingly technical rhythmically anymore... what? sounds like alice in chains.... what what?) but it turns out the material is very composed, the lyrics (that I can make out) resonant, no filler at all. Really, highest recommendation.Helmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00584102280299430293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6645554669355760340.post-77276457005691921602009-08-29T08:00:35.532-07:002009-08-29T08:00:35.532-07:00saw these on the gods of grind tour way back - I w...saw these on the gods of grind tour way back - I was on the guesty - and tbh, the singing got my back up - and to think I'm a peter hammill nut too!<br /><br />May give it a spin - I remember them being fairly heavy.

As with many "underground in the 90's and broke up until recently when people started appreciating our music again and now we're touring (but not for the money)" bands (Carcass, Suffocation, etc...) I've never really been interested.
