Reviews list for Mouth of the Architect - The Ties That Blind (2006)

This is heavy, this is sludge to the core. This is also, the most unremarkable album I've listened to. Ever. There has not been an album even in the sludge journey that I have listened to more and more and got less and less every time to talk about. My 2 star is because it's not something I want to listen to ever again (as I put it on one more time in the background for some form of inspiration). It is not bad at all, I have no gripes on the musicianship itself. Over the last year, somewhere in the beginning of the year I listened to this album. Then again soon after, and a few times over the year. You know what I think after wards? "Did I listen to something, what was it?". I've genuinely forgot, though I see the plays of this album. As I have it on, again I am entertained enough. I don't want to grab my ears and forcibly turn it off by any means it just sounds like white noise to me but not like ambient sleep machine noise. Like I'm watching a movie and there's stuff going on but there just happens to be sounds or else the deafness would be even louder. It's filler music to my ears. This is not bad by any means, but as a precaution to those trying to get into this style you are not alone if you too just black out for an hour as it plays and have to remind yourself that you did hear this.
