I've known him for years form youtube and facebook. And he wrote the song Ten Billion years, the best song on the album besides the 3 track Epic, Autotheism.

I also interviewed him August 18th in Milwaukee for Summer slaughter for everything the band has planned for the future, and he's always been a good guy to me and what he has said has been true so far. If you check it out you'll know what I mean.

*In case you don't check it out* Trust me when I say he will make the band even better then they are now.

Ok, so Ten Billion is the song he wrote.



I assumed it was that or Hymn of sanity.

The dude is a great guitar player (He plays the last solo on Emancipate, which might be the best solo on the whole record) . He came in very late to the party on this record and I think having him work with Keene on the whole writing process on the next record should be amazing. I will I say I do disagree with MPF about Ten Billion Years being the best song behind the Autotheist Movement. That title for me goes to In Solitude, I fucking love the riff on the song.

In Solitude is number 3 for me. That said, i don't think there is a bad song on the album its currently number 8 out of my top 20, which says a lot considering how many promo albums I have to go through every week for the radio show.

Yeah I'm with you there is not a single bad song on the album. It's currently at number 2 on my list out of the 50 or so albums I've heard this year and I expect to be in the Top 5 or at the very least top 10 at year's end.

It will be growing for me as well. I wont be updating my top 20 until after Epicloud comes out, but after that I just have the new BTBAM and James LaBrie albums for ones that will most likely make my top 20 then I can fine tune everything and any up and coming albums I'm not aware of yet possibly being on there as well.

But ok enough rambling, Autotheism is a fantastic album!

The Anthony Fantano review just came out.

He gave it a 5/10. Pretty much says that Keene's clean vocals are terrible and the melodic parts are boring.

I'm inclined to agree with the cocksniffer.

I don't agree at all with what he said about the record, but it was very well articulated so I can't hate on him.
