If this band, and this album was a woman ... it would be by far, the best relationship, a man could ever have. End of review. End of story. Finnito!

Comment by Steve
Alright ... straight up. There are music connoissuers and there are music listeners ... but how much 'listening' are the music listeners actually doing? For the most part in the above reviews, I think the feedback has been relatively accurate ... BUT, there have been (and always will be) people out there who don't have the 'ability' to appropriately appreciate and articulate music for what it is. You either pick up on the masterful intricacies or you don't. It comes down to the persons emotional and intellectual depth and capability. Karnivool's 'Sound Awake' is as most well-respected music reviewers have described, an absolute EPIC MASTERPIECE. In every sense of the statement. From start to finish, the album takes you on a wondrous musical journey through atmospheres and worlds we can only wish we were a part of ... and good 'ol Karnivool manage effortlessly to take us there. There's NO DOUBT that Tool have been an influence here, but if the listener pays enough attention, and knows their music from 1960 - 2009, they will discover that Pink Floyd and Sir David Gilmour (on his own) have played an influential part in the makings of this 'already' legendary piece of musical genius. Aside from this, the band themselves have established their own sound in their own right, and have proven that uniqueness and standoutness (yes I've created a word to suit my own argument) is something they have been capable of doing in a progressive and musically mature and intelligent way. Without question, songs like 'Simple Boy', 'Golliath', 'New Day', 'Umbra', 'Deadman', and 'Change' are nothing short of blissful musical mastery. 'Change' though, is most certainly 'THE' stand-out. It does at times, particularly in the initial stages, have a Tool 'Lateralus' 'The Grudge' feel to it with its tribal style drum rythems, but with Mr. Kenny's vocal attack, and his band of brothers instrumental unity collectively working together so rarely heard in any musical forum ... only the true music appreciator grasp it and give it the justice it truly deserves. EPIC, MASTERFUL, GENIUS, FORCE TO BE RECKONED WITH ... Karnivool - Sound Awake.

July for kings - Monochrome

Comment by Kaj
I´m not so sure I like this new sound from July For Kings, I am a fan of their previous albums and really looked forward hearing Monochrome.
But this is too safe and and family friendly, I bet everyone from grandma to your little children will enjoy this album.
I would like to call it elevator music (hiss musik in Swedish), something that goes in one ear and comes out the other.
It´s there but you can´t hear it.

Comment by Ape to the Gr-ape-vine
Shame their longer songs are kind of repetitious (Deadman) and too free flowing without any structure *Change). They should learn from the masters though...the shorter songs are ok.

Comment by Shane
Hi I'm from America and I also agree that Dan is a fucking idiot. Karnivool is the most talented and creative band in the entire rock/metal/prog genre to come around an a long long time. Themata was brilliant and Sound Awake has gone to a whole different level. I've listened to the album probably 20 or 30 times through and there are no signs of it leaving my CD player. I can't wait for them to tour the US so I can see them live in person, rather than on YouTube.

Comment by James
Aright album I guess but the album is hard to take even after multiple listens. Prog-rock happens to be my favorite genre if you could call it that, but some of the melodies and songs just don't sound right. It feels as if Karnivool just accepted these songs, worked on them and just let them be. The album feels very rigid and fixed...no doubt there are very interesting time signatures/changes but it feels like an empty void.
