The problem with Tyranny of Decay is exactly as you pointed out, it as much a step forward as it as step backwards, and for me the step back is more overreaching than the step forward. Still a fantastic record by any means though, just not their best in my opinion.Alex Layzellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08338137078289275583noreply@blogger.com
