Anyone buy this yet?

How does it stack up to "Trilateral Progression"? I'm not extremely fond of that album; they seem to be losing a little steam...

they're getting groovier...changing with the times...not shocking

It's worth buying



toggletoggle post by eh, frenchy? at Jul 31,2008 11:54am
they just seem to be getting more chuggy. although their progressive riffs are becoming more interesting. either way, i'll probably pick up a copy


anyone wanna go north to see them live???

Good progressive metalcore.

i think "the thin line..." is a great album, but sadly doesnt come anywhere near Trilateral Progression. I doubt they will ever top it. most deffinately worth buying though

Neuraxis civilize metalcore by infusing it with heavy doses of progressive metal and technical death metal. Metalcore -- known for its rapid changes between seemingly irrelevant parts equally borrowed from metal, nu-metal, emo and hardcore -- grew out of the MTV culture where images on a screen tell an unfolding story, and each scene is mirrored by changes in the music. Neuraxis give the metalcore as developed by bands like Behemoth or Necrophagist a good run for its money by massaging a more listenable and more musical instrumentalism into it, creating a work that will stick with the listener longer than its genremates of lesser dimensionality.

What are they?

Technical death metal but with better writing



toggletoggle post by eh, frenchy? at Jul 31,2008 5:08pm
i'd have to agree with what it says on wikipedia: "Canadian technical / melodic death metal"

Do they sound more like Dillinger Escape Plan, or Atheist?

I dunno -- there's something different in the way they stitch together riffs, and the type of riffs they use. I can't even call Necrophagist technical death metal because it's so disconnected. Death metal is about making radically different riffs fit together, but in NEcrophagist's case, it's like they're aiming for difference not coherence.

Or am I on crack? <inhales>

Dillinger Escape Plan sounds like crossover to me, and that's what everyone I knew called the first album (which, when it arrived at the station, we threw out ;).

Metalcore has a range to it. Neuraxis sounds more like the stuff I've heard that some call "modern death metal" than As I Lay Dying, but the way it's composed is more similar to As I Lay Dying than, say, to Asphyx or Deicide.

in my mind, Neuraxis is just marijuana-induced french-canadian madness.

I bought the new album. MUCH better than their previous one. Love it already. Hope to see them play live soon. Pick it up if you get a chance...
