Worlds Apart
How many have heard it now? Picked it up today and given it two listens so far. It's certainly no Source Tags and Codes but the first eight tracks are all pretty excellent, classic TOD stuff but with the tunes brought right to the forefront, catchy and powerful. It goes downhill quite badly after that unfortunately, although of course those last tracks might yet grow on me. They seem pretty overblown and lacking in the killer hooks and thrilling moments of the first part of the album. The other two things separating ST&C and Worlds Apart is the fact that the lyrics are sometimes a bit weak on this one, and it lacks the overall cohesion and flow that the last album had. Overall still a good album though!
