    Oh man, I'll never forget hearing this album for the first time. My friends and I were fucking stunned. No words spoken the whole time we listened. We just shut our drunk traps up and sat in amazement as this absolute masterpiece of an album unfolded. So many memorable licks, riffs, and sections. 2:08-4:23. Simply incredible composition and execution.

    Why are people arguing about originality, this song hasnt been writing by anyone else but this guy. and, why are people nowadays only interested in technicality or being able to pull off super complex shit on guitar?

I only wish he used the 8th string a little bit more and tuning was too high for my taste. I'm sure I will come to listen this again because the catchy melodies stuck in my head now.
