Sylosis - What next?

I really like their Edge of the Earth album, which I ordered last night and should be in the mail later this month. How does their other stuff compare to Edge of the Earth?

I've not heard Edge Of The Earth, but Monolith (their latest) is an amazing album, IMO! Some tracks thrash fast and violent, some are crushing mid-paced numbers, and some have a cool melodic/progressive vibe.

I'm working my way backwards through their discography, so I don't know how Monolith stacks up against the rest of their work.

I'm a big fan of these guys. If you enjoy the latest stuff, I suspect you'll dig everything else. Their first two EPs are bit rawer, a bit more metalcore, but they're not very different from what they're doing now.

I received Edge of the Earth in the mail today!

I ordered Monolith in the mail earlier this month. It should be in the mail very soon!

Been diggin' on Monolith over the past week. Music is killer. As stated, some fast and violent thrash, some crushing mid-paced numbers, and some melodic and progressive passages. Thrash metal with a modern edge. If this band had a singer, they could rule the world. Their current screamer is ok, but I think it's the weakest point of the CD. Those tough-guy Randy Blythe/Phil Anselmo-style vocals just get old after a while, but then again that seems to be what most popular metal bands are going for at the moment.

I am glad you liked the CD either way, Scott.

Killer band and I agree. If they had a better singer, they'd be that much better. Musically these guys are top notch.

I think the vocalist is perfectly fine.

Yes, he's ok. He's just not unique or charismatic. He doesn't bring anything special to the band.

They have a new album on the way, and have a video for the lead single:
