God damn it. Individual Thought Patterns was one of those albums I bought as a young Batlad that I didn't really enjoy, but was too young to be confident in criticising it, so I just assumed that I didn't "get it". So I kept listening to it off and on over the course of a year or so, convinced that eventually the album's brilliance would be revealed to me.
This did not happen. In fact, this was one of the albums that made me realize that my true taste for death metal lay in the more primitive, immediate corner of the genre. And so confuzzlement became outright distaste.
Up until literally twelve minutes ago I have been perfectly happy with this opinion, and perfectly happy to **** on Individual Thought Patterns to anyone who would listen. So why the **** is this album now, not only tolerable, but ****ing badass?! I don't understand this **** at all, but **** me if this isn't kicking a fair amount of my ass.
Like, seriously, this is kind of giving Scream Bloody Gore a run for its money as my fav Death album.
