I like it a lot more than Virus! I feel it's a lot more melodic, whereas Virus for me fell on the classic prog metal trap of complexity for complexity's sake. However, The Mountain is still my favorite.
Also check out Charlie Griffith's solo album. It's quite a bit heavier than Haken, with thrash metal influences, and tbh I like it more than Haken's work.
Same here, it took a few listens for this album to really grow on me. It’s quite nice, though!
By the way, awesome user name (assuming it's referencing one of my GOAT albums)!
It is a reference to „In The Passing Light Of Day“ album from Pain Of Salvation which is definitely one of my GOAT albums ;) I am a big fan of Pain of Salvation and have seen them live once. This album gives me goosebumps whenever I listen to it, absolutely fantastic.
Yes! Oh man the first and last songs, so much raw emotion.
My favourite from Fauna. Love that chorus, and how it's different every time.
First time I listen to them, really like the music. Thanks for the tip!
You are welcome!
Oh I didn't hear about the new album! I've only listened up to Virus. Gonna have to give this one a spin and see how it is
Tried listening to a Haken a few times but it never really grabbed me, i did hear this when they released it a few months ago, but i might need to check this full album out
