People who know me, know that Atheist is one of my fave metal acts. So to say that I�m expecting great things from "Jupiter", would probably be an understatement. I�m sure the boys will deliver something spectacular. They were and hopefully still are one of the most unique metal acts ever.

Just ordered the limited digipack version with bonus tracksCool
 
Actually there were no bonus tracks anywayUnhappy. It said so when I ordered the CD, but apparently the reseller must have misunderstood something. But I got a cool stickerConfusedAngry.

To be honest (I'm going to piss all you fanboys off right here) I didn't like this album. I love Unquestionable Presence, but this album was a downer for me. It seemed a little dry.

You know . . .

I was going to write a detailed review a few weeks after I got it (2 days before the official release date Smile
My local Record Store somehow gets some pretty cool stuff early) but because of work and being soo damn
tired, I got lazy.
Let me say that I understand, I do like it but agree its not the GREAT "Unquestionable Presence", but I still
need to give it more spins, but Tracks will definitely make it on my Compilation CD's.
I think for me its 2 things:  The Vocals and Lack of that "Bass Sound" we were used to.
Schaffer has gotten a bit more aggressive (vocally) and I think it takes away the sound of the musicality,
but I'm sure I'll get used to it (If I can get through the vocals on Thordendals "Special Defects" I can on this
one too Tongue).
The biggest thing for me is the Bass.  If any of you had read all the Roadrunner/Blabbermouth stuff between
Tony Choy and Schaffer, let me say this:
Schaffer can go on about the Late-great Roger Patterson, that he "wrote" the parts that Choy plays on
"Unquestionable...", but whom I'm hearing and lived with all these years was Choy.
Choy's work on the 2nd and "Elements" is outstanding, and he has that signature tone, "Slapping" and
finger galloping.  That said, what we have on "Jupiter" is a Guitarist playing a Bass, not a Bassist playing
Bass Guitar, nobody's fault, just thats what it is and its a bit lackluster.
But the album is full of crazy time sigs, left-turns and thats what I wanted . . . just with Choy Wink.
:bass:

Heres a "short" version of what happened:
http://gunshyassassin.com/news/atheist-bassist-responds-to-band%E2%80%99s-shit-talk/#
What now interests me is the New project with Choy (read at end of article) and members of
Aghora and King Diamond! Big smile

Recent Note:
I was a little pissed off that the "Foil/Digi-pack"  version I ordered didnt have any Bonus tracks myself Angry.
Okay the foil version of the cover is nice but come on!  Add something along with the sticker! Tongue
