I love how these guys seem to enjoy making the end of their songs end with a bang. Almost always, the heaviest part is the last 15 seconds or so where they just blitz you out of nowhere.

[@Skoora]

Their music is so inspiring to me as it’s everything so much modern metal isn’t. Raw, big, dynamic and great melodies. Solo’s are fiery and I like that after the main riff has been played for a while, you know probably two more killer sections are coming. Love bands that don’t have overly technical parts but understand dynamics and arranging. Great shit.
