did i hear some flamenco-ish parts in one of the songs, or am i imagining things?
Your not imagining things, but if you had listen to their EP Transcendence that came out not long ago, you wouldnt be suprised. it has alot of it:)
i see... i haven't checked that EP out yet. allthough i must admit i usually quite dislike flamenco anyway (even though i'm half spanish). it's just something i found surprising.
"Trascendence" the song is mindblowing...it made a mediocre EP great. Possibly the best song Ive heard in the last 5 or more years, Ive listened to it every single day for a few months now - super good!

Listened to their stuff for their first time and I must say I'm quite impressed, as I have never could get into the tech death too much. This sounds very original, diverse, well producted and of course with enough aggressiveness to sum it up briefly. Well, I have to spin it for a couple of times more...

Never before have I seen a tech-death band craft their playing to revolve around technical ability and musicianship, while still keeping it relative to the song-structure i.e. not technical wankery. Even having all of that fantastic groove is great. The addition of those symphonic elements are well appreciated, while not being over-used and the production quality is simply unbelievable.
Possibly the best thing I've heard all year. As usual, these fantasic French dudes know how to play tech-death and not forget the 'death' portion at the end. Heavy and memorable this deserves a solid '9' from me and is so far the only thing this year that deserves it IMO.

Very, very well-done. Needs more brutality, but I guess the well-done execution of this album is an excuse for me to forget.
Digging the funky elements of "Varangian Paradise". <3 "Theme From Shaft" anyone?
I think it's great. I'm now on track 5, first listen. It's great till now, the lyrics are very good.

In that case, man is only air as well.

A little too melodic for me, but the technicality is still there and the songwriting is excellent. I didn't think I'd end up liking this after their venture into prog territory with their latest EP, but this is some pretty fun tech-death.

Really digging this album. I remember having Process on my iPod and deciding to delete it after a while. Maybe I should go back and try it out again.

Strong album indeed, perhaps their best. I have great expectations for their live performance with Gojira in 2 weeks.

Great album, enjoying it more and more with each listen. It's got some nice diversity to it. Time to dive into the rest of their discography.
EDIT: Wow...this is truly brilliant. Whenever I get a spare chance I listen to this. Never get tired of it. Album of the year for me thus far, but there is still plenty to come (Ahab in a few days!).

Think about it, you mean "judging" by saying "This is awful, I won't even rate this" will satisfy other users?...Pretty weak I guess.
It's like saying "Slayer is the only band who rules Thrash Metal scene. Fuck yeah, Slayer!!!!" and went down to rate 10 on every album. Then again.....pretty horrible I suppose.
Judging means- coming out with the proper pro and cons about the album. Claiming over the top that you won't rate that album just because its awful will be getting insanely backfired.

Well he did call the recent Nile abomination "album of the year" and suggested that anyone who didn't share that opinion was deaf so give him a break, he clearly drums to a different beat than we all do.

I think you should try their sophomore album called "Leading Vision", which is far superior comparing to this stuff. So damn catchy tunes out there...

I have it also ^^
More recomendations of bands similar to Gorod or The Faceless? Technical, but with variation, good melodies and prog?
