Hmm. I guess I'm used to Zao being more immediate, and not so sludgy. I keep hearing **** that makes me go, "Oh **** yeah!!!", but it all doesn't quite come together as a whole yet. I'm gonna have to put this **** on repeat for a good long while before I proclaim judgement. At the very least this is one heavy ass album. Like, maybe not Electric Wizard heavy, but they have seats in the ballpark. It's also awesome that after all these years they can still evolve so much without having to throw in random, inappropriate elements just to say they are evolving. No other metalcore band sounds like Zao.
