awesome, I'm glad all generations of metalheads can appreciate this band, I think its the best thing in metal to come around for a while. I'm not saying there's nothing else that's come out recently that's good, but its the combination of the members in this band that I've been following for years, Jeff in Nevermore, Alex Webster from Cannibal Corpse, and recently Keith because of his tone and riffing, and Alex Rudinger's drumming is possibly the best of this generation. Put all that together, you get Conquering Dystopia. I'm on the fence whether I'd like to hear vocals or not, only if its the right person with a very dynamic range of vocals.

Taylor Pawsey As far as the styles they play and come from, I completely agree. However, the actual playing style of being extremely and overly technical definitely shines through in both Rudinger and Garstka.
