| Hell yea. Vanishing Point are one of those bands who are still giving it their best after all these years. Embrace The Silence is a monster but check out Tangled In Dream. I honestly dont know which I prefer out of the two. The debut, In Thought, is also worthy of a listen. Pretty primitive production and the prog ideas tend to drag but there are gems in there. |

There is one song of this album on their myspace page, it rocks! |

| Even the most typical of bands get high marks around here. Which is stupid. |

Vanishing Point is hardly a "typical band" especially in the prog metal genre" If getting a 5.0 / 5.0 from Metal-Rules and an average score amongst the readers of well over 90 / 100 is "typical" then guilty as charged......

Well, Raintime is a typical melodeath band, and both of their releases got high-ratings on this website. I can't say that Vanishing Point is typical or not, because I haven't bothered listening to them yet.
We'll see once I get the CD. But I have my doubts. |

But I never said that they themselves were typical. I meant bands in general. If you read my above post carefully, you would know this. |

I know that you're trying to make a point here somewhere....I'm just not sure what it is........

Point is, not all bands deserve high scores if they're playing typically. I don't care how amazing it sounds and what have you. If it's been done before, it doesn't deserve a high score. Period.
Like I said above, I can't say if this band sounds typical. But Raintime and a few others DO sound it, and thusly do NOT deserve the scores they were given.
This is madness. |
