The reason I didn't review any of Maudlin of the Well is because even Part The Second had a distinct metal bent, and I purposely excluded anything particularly progressive metal related in order to keep things focused.
that makes sense for all the other works, but Part the Second is, to my ears, so decidedly non-metal, i really don't see how it can be classified as such.

i guess this shouldn't be made into a discussion thread, so i won't press you on it.

still seems an odd description for the album (while being a very good one for the band in general).

guess it doesn't matter too much, once mentioned.
anyone interested can check it out.

anyway, i'm glad to hear you're not gonna retire the thread yet.
can't w8 to see what you got up your sleeve.
