This is a great album. More Hard Rock/Heavy Metal than pure metal and that's fine by me. I love how Slough Feg evolved and this is, in my opinion, the right path for them.
Now I expect more Analogue Avengers/Bertrand Russell’s Sex Den on their next works, they do it so well!

90/100

90 / 100 is too high IMO. This doesn't touch Hardworlder or Ape Uprising! which are my two favorites from later era Slough Feg.

Completely agree about Analogue Avengers/Bertrand Russell’s Sex Den, it's brilliant!

imo they killed it with this album. I love Atavism/Hardworlder/Ape Uprising/Animal Spirits but I also think they were falling into a rut where the songs were merely vessels for killer riffs and melodies, and Digital Resistance breaks out of that rut by having tons of clever/unique/memorable songs.

I have no problems whatsoever with your opinions, I think we pretty much agree on this album apart from the score anyway :)

I know. And I forgot to thank you for reviewing it. So, big thanks to you, Thomas.
And now, Ogre's The Last Neanderthal? Pretty please.

Also gorgeous and clever use of acoustic guitar on this album.

I like this album much more than Animal Spirits, which I found to be really dull and kinda unlistenable (why listen to that when I could listen to Atavism and Traveller?) This album is pretty solid though and I like it's Manilla Road sound/production.
