Not only is this album fantastic, they were one of my favorite LA bands to go see. A few changes here and there throuout the years since they were first Chinga Monkey but always awesome. Some of the most original & energetic guitar playing I've ever seen on stage.
I can see the Dredg similarities- not that "Tierra" is going to appease the void in my soul for another Dredg recording- but, hell, I'd hit it. Actually, after listening to the samples, I'd say Opus Dai is more along the lines of a free-thinking Ignite, especially in the vocal department.
Great from start to finish!! I must have listened to it 20 times in a row since i've had it.. it has to be one of the best albums and one of the freshest sounds i've heard this year, driving but soothing at the same time and both polished yet raw... i've been looking for something like this!! i cant get enough!
Finally, long anticipated album debut from Opus Dai is here, this Cali band is a must for fans of Tool and Dredg, just like I said before. You won't be dissapointed, Taken Eye is the only song I didn't like as much as the others, but 1 of 12... it's worth something in my book. Just take a look at all the ratings this band is receiving.
