Sure! It's just really hard to find, and bloody expensive when you can get it

The word "masterpiece" is pretty overused, so I dont know what to call this... This gets a full 9 from me.

If I could make one band reunite it would be Alchemist. Fantastic album.

I've had this album sat on my itunes for years without properly listening to it since the first time I downloaded it, but Chinese Whispers came on shuffle and I feel like I need to give it a go, great song

I think Austral Alien gets a bit more play-time from me, but that album and Spiritech are easily the best from Alchemist.

Austral Alien would come as second for me. Its a fantastic album but I think I have overplayed it a bit haha.

Spiritech, Organasm, and Austral Alien are like the holy alchemical trifecta for me. Hard to pick a favorite although I think I played Organasm the most often.

True, but Spiritech wins hands down for me

I'm so close to agreeing with you...but for me it goes:

Lunasphere then
Organasm then
Spiritech

Those screams in Chinese Whispers are fucking incredible. There's just no other bands out there that quite do what Alchemist did it seems.

I tried listening over and over again. I can't stand it. I don't care if they were breaking some boundaries in 1997, my ears tell me it sucks big time.
