Tigran Hamasyan - The Curse
(youtu.be)
heck yeah covet rules 
Mine’s got to be Meshuggah’s The Violent Sleep of Reason.
geeking out:
Tracks in order:
- Janky broken machine riff. And they have chords? What the fuck are those?
- Paying respects to classic metal, and dare I say there’s even some blues in there? Then an amazing illusory infinitely descending riff.
- Not my favorite song, but it’s still solid. The solo sounds like a joke but also fucking slaps, and the following sections saves the song.
- The outro of this song is contender for fattest riff on the album.
- The verse rhythm is hidden in the 4:15 section. Best song overall?
- Another infinitely descending riff. Then the solo riff which does so much with basically a single note.
- Holy shit the verse is so fucking nasty! Outro also fattest riff contender.
- Seemingly random (except the verse) which then mostly gets unlocked at 3:18 by a riff that is both amazing on its own, but is also introduced … in the middle of a solo, wtf? At the end “gazing to the sky” actually a rare emotional moment.
- The verse proves that tone matters, it’s so goddamn crispy.
- Really fitting ending song.
