From there to cry genius, or even ...
This album is good, especially the production is very neat. The riffs are clean and nice solos and not too rivers.
But the whole lacks a bit of potato, the choruses are not really catchy, rhythmic not many groovy and all lack a little freshness or originality.
Personally, I much prefer "Brave new world" which had enchanted me.
Yet it is true that A matter of Life and Death is probably one of the best albums of the band since its 7th. Which ultimately, is not nothing.
