Free Music Review: An Epic Auditory Experience
Hit: 5 Stars
As an avid Isis fan, I may be bias. However, Panopticon is by far their best work yet. Blending the intense sounds and coarse vocals with technical harmony and mind-blowing lyrics, Panopticon is an album that needs to be played straight through the first few listens in order to fully pull in all elements: proof of the importance of good production.
While some older fans have said that this was the begining of a more mainstream sound, my ears hear it differently. Starting off with "So Did We" (my favorite track of their's by far) and melting into "Backlit" shows how amazingly talented these guys are. The ability to hold onto a grunge-metal sound while still exploring the area in lighter tones is not an easy task, and Isis did more than pull it off: they perfected it.
I personally have told people I've met to buy Panopticon and if they didn't like it, I'd give them their money back. I've yet to have anyone request it.
