Between the Buried and Me Colors IIA monumental work held back from perfection by a slightly bloated run time. Far and away their best work in years.Caligula's Horse Rise RadiantToo early to tell if it has the staying power that In Contact did, but even if it doesn't, it's still an outstanding release on it's own right.Counterparts A Eulogy for Those Still HereCrippled Black Phoenix EllengaestDescend The DeviantThis is some A-list progressive death metal.

I was nervous about her crossover into metal, especially with BLOODMONEY and Concrete as the first singles, but the rest of this album absolutely nails the blend of pop and metal Poppy. Excellent production, good songwriting, even better than expected album structuring - this is good.Protest the Hero PalimpsestPsychotic Waltz The God-Shaped VoidSquid Bright Green FieldUlcerate Stare Into Death and Be StillDeceptively simple and straightforward at first, but layers upon layers upon layers await with further spins.
