^ As far as rap bits go I don't mind the Kyrbgrinder track on a second listen, having got over the surprise (the other album I streamed had nothing of the sort on it).
I wouldn't want to listen to a whole album like that though.
Did you try the Ra song? (There's no rapping btw)
If I say fuck two more times that's forty-six fucks in this fucked up rhyme
Finally picked up a copy of this. It could become a subject of my revisited reviews series. I was more lukewarm to this at the time of release, but hearing it on CD for the first time having more or less forgotten it and not listening to their other stuff as much as I was at the time is allowing me to appreciate this one more in its own right.
I listened to this one yesterday. I just can´t stop listening to Arch / Matheos. Both albums are brillitant and Unique pieces of progressive metal. I can´t get over the fact that a 55 years old man can sing like this

The first album of The Neal Morse Band entity. A little different to Morse solo stuff, with more hard rocking/heavy parts than most of his albums have. Probably the best he's done (of the ones I've heard) since Sola Scriptura. There's two more The Neal Morse Band albums after this that I haven't heard (both sprawling double albums).
Pretty solid alt metal tinged prog. Bit jarring to find a rap metal track slapped in the middle though. Hopefully it's the only one.
Made me curious about the rap metal song and ended up listening through the other songs. Good alt metal stuff, some of the riffs even sound nu metal to me (Fall Away especially). Reminds me of the band Ra minus the Middle-Eastern elements, been loving this song lately:
