    First time hearing this band, and my fave part is the first singers vocal work. It's interesting, unique and ballsy in a way that most modern stuff I've heard can't touch.
    And I gotta hand it to all the vocalists, not one of them had to be the cookie monster, and that's always a good thing. Hopefully that's a thread this band always keeps intact.

      Chris Gibson SikTh wouldn't be SikTh without Mikee though. The interplay between him and Justin was amazing on the first two albums, and he writes all of their (usually awesome) lyrics. I couldn't imagine Hold My Finger, Such The Fool, Flogging The Horses or Part Of The Friction sounding even slightly right with someone else.

    I just happened across this when Spencer was referenced in a Devin Townsend video.
    There is a lot about this song that reminds of of the old Bay Area thrash band Forbidden. The chords, progressions, riffs, and even vocals really reminded me of them, probably from Distortion and Green albums.
    Just a thought. Interesting stuff for sure.

      Man, I have to agree with you, but also to a different extent. When I met with Pin Dan and Joe on their first US tour and had a good long chat, Joe is definitely fantastic as a performer and a cool dude(even though they bust his balls for being such a young pup and also northern irish haha) but I think his being so young and coming into the band after they all have known each other for so long shows a sort of balance shift in the vocalist "priority" so to speak. What I mean is I think Justin almost definitely had a creative drive and vision (and familiarity?) formidable enough on songs and parts to counter and counterbalance Mikee's obviously intense artistic vision, creating a great duality in their work. I really hope Joe finds his footing to get his songs / moments to shine as well going forward, creating that great almost-idiosyncratic feel of their early stuff.

      @omnillama845 5 років тому +1

      @@mike7958 That is true, but there is a weird nebulous area between lyricist and vocal performer, when they're mutually exclusive, because credits for lyrics don't always mean they were responsible for the melodies and embellishments that come of them.
      but thinking on it a bit more after posting, it may just be a conscious choice by the band to not have the 'new guy' carrying the majority of any given song. could be because of fear of fan backlash, , his own disinterest in doing so, or any number of valid reasons. The point I was trying to get at was that sense of a tonal shift on a smattering of songs in an album is missing in newer works, and my first theory was it may be the vocalist change.

      My story of discovering the band was similar, it was also 2001 and a guy I was jamming with gave me a compilation with 3 tracks from 'the trees are dead...' and I was also WTF? but also awe-inspired by the odd notes and rhythms. They very quickly became my favourite band but in all honesty they kinda made me put my guitar down for a few years because I felt utterly shite in comparison! Suddenly the music I was writing didn't stand up and I felt i'd never get that good!
