there is one of the crazyiest solos and a damn good ending though. lyrics very general hard to tell its meaning (9.5/10)ġ1 another sinking ship- impresive instrumental work in this. a good song espescially if you like the slower justin based songs. this song is easier to digest than most sikth songs. the song tells how the world is f***ed and how people can take good things and make them seem bad (9.5/10)ġ0 where do we fall- a slower song- good bassline and justins vocal work is good here too. There is also a sweet and melodic guitar breakdown about 4 mins. lyrics about a person questioning the relationship he has with a girl he loves(9.5/10)ĩ part of the friction- (formerly death of a dead day) its a very structured song.i think it has single appeal. the singing becomes very chaotic and it has a soaring guitar line from pin. they have cool bass and drum work complimented by good singing. poetic lyrics dealing with natureĨ when the moments gone- cool intro, but i really love the verses.

tracks like this are what help make sikth so different from other bands. i like that they mix it up by putting this on here though. it has more of a traditional metal song with a sikth touch(slow heavy guitar and double bass) medevil lyrics dealing with death and maybe warħ mermaid slur- spoken word piece similiar to when will the forest speak from the first cd. sikths ability to keep everything together and sounding natural during all the madness in their music is astonishing and this song is a great example of that. (9.5/10)Ħ sanguine seas of bigotry- a heavy melodic sound, if you shut your eyes it might remind you of opeth (especially mikee). lyrics dont seem to be about anything specific someone trying to reach a certain state of mind during a hard time i think. the bass and drums are right on.theres a cool solo which fits surprisingly well since its a soft song. very atmospheric, guitarists show their diversity here. about a relationship gone bad(9.5/10)ĥ in this light- a softer song i think this song is all justin. it also has one of the best solos ive heard in a while by a new metal band. mikees voice is really good at some parts. there is a percussive kind of sound with cool bass. grand grand song (8.5/10)Ĥ summer rain- holy knights of templar! this song is really fast.

about modern man again lyrics draw great comparisons to nature. mikee sounds EVIL towards the end of this song. the verses tend to get a little annoying. this song is more melodic for a heavy song, the singers do a back and forth singing thing, then theres a sweet part with some solos. seems to be about the modern man, his 9-5 lifestyle and ignorance (9.5/10)ģ way beyond the fond old river- absolutely amzing intro followed by an angst ridden guitar part with sweet drums followed by a cool bassline. after a bit there are some sweet harmonics and mikee goes into an almost spoken word piece with justin singing and humming in the back ground. I think its about mediocrity and how everyones has become bland and unoriginal or somethingĢ flogging the horses- mikee gives a very memorable intro. it has a war chant part at the end with a very sweet and heavy outro with very weird guitar and some sweet pinch harmonics. the intro is heavy and the verses are very choatic. the talent and energy i was talking about is shown well on this song. (lyric interpratations are my opinion and im a dumb*** so come up with your own)ġ bland street bloom- this song is quite the opener. They do trade jobs quite often and arent afraid to just give in to a chaotic battle of dirty british voices in the midst of some very energetic music made by the band. Mikee seems to be more of the screamer while Justin does higher pitched singing. although i have limited drum knowledge i would say their drummer is great (like chris adler, danny carey great) he plays fast, complicated beats always with creativity.now to the singers. their bassist doesnt hide in the dark though as he is equally gifted. they have two guitarists and they both are very talented, as they compliment each other well and use techniques like tapping. the seamless musical transistions, wide variety of styles, unthinkable talent of EVERY member of the band. I first got into this band when my friend showed me the trees are dead and dried out, their first cd.
