Surprised i had to dive so deep to find this thread. Been jamming to these guys for a couple years straight now and they're constantly dropping new music.
I picked up Nonagon Infinity on the advice of my cousin... man, that album is something else.. those guys are talented AF.
The vocals kill me though... some songs would be better w/ no vocals at all, IMO. Is that unique to that album, or reflective of their whole discography?

That's also the album that I was introduced to first. It's definitely rough around the edges compared to some of their others. Each album has a completely different music style, so the vocals change a lot. I don't think they're necessarily known for their vocals but I'd recommend checking out another album or two to see what you think.

I think what kills me is that pretty much all the vocals on NI have an instrument shadowing their melody... it's fine for one or two songs, but gets old after a bit.
Still in all, Robot Stop, Big Fig Wasp, Evil Death Roll, Road Train... all f'ing awesome songs. The discography is overwhelming, it's so expansive, but I definitely want to check out more,.
This band is crazy! My son and I have started going through their catalog and they are pretty cool. Read the reviews on Allmusic.com to see how they force themselves into musical challenges for each album.
Haven’t seen them live yet, but I see they are doing 4 days at The Caverns in Tennessee. That is a really cool place to see a show. It’s underground!
