This...
"Elements" is ok, the production was not good for them on this album. Plus, their lineup changed and it effected the band's sound. |

| Love Unquestionable Presence, hate Elements, and have actually never listened to Piece of Time. |

| One of the very few prog/technical bands that are still able to write catchy songs. I liked the first three albums a lot. Jupiter was alright but nowhere near the the first three. Cynic was already over the top for me |

Sure "Focus" is untouchable in this style! |
Focus is indeed out of this world. Don't forget the demos either, "demo 90" possibly the best thrash I've ever heard! |

| I would really love for Cynic's demo stuff to be officially released. So fucking good.... |

Unquestionable Presence is a masterpiece of American death metal.

Atheist are liked by me, no question. I consider their first full length a classic, and Unquestionable Presence is very close behind.
Essential listening, in my opinion. |

| Piece of time is one of my favorite "tech death" records of all time. The demos rip it up as well. |

Great band! It was not many weeks back when I pulled out the Piece of Time album first time in many years. I didn't even remember how good it was... I saw them live too about three years ago but it didn't have the feeling.

| Piece of Time is really great. The demo materials that appear on the 2005 reissue CD are also great! |

I like everything they've done, including their recent album, even though it's got a few tracks you can call weak for their standards.
