That's what I thought too, it's a lot less technical and progressive than Omnivium, but on par with Cosmogenesis in terms of melodies.I wish I had the same reaction as with Epitaph, Cosmogenesis or RIP, man, those albums were utter love at first listen for me. I think it's not gonna happen here, though I love Obscura and will keep on supporting their music. I wouldn't say Akroasis is bad, gosh, these Fountainhead solos drive me nuts, love them, but I opine the rhythm parts are a lot weaker than in older albums.
