Much less thrash influence. Hardcore vox are more like Silhouettes' and so is the style in general. However, there is a bit more of the experimental clean style in this than on both Polars and Silhouettes. Heavier production and more catchy than Polars.

Textures - Polars [2004]
Damn good beginning. Not a fan of the hardcore vox compared to Silhouettes, but the clean vox are equally as good. Wow, the title track is fuckin' insane. Avant-Garde doesn't even describe it correctly. There are some parts that are leagues more experimental than anything on Silhouettes. At the same time, it has way more thrash metal influence.

Textures - Silhouettes [2008]
Cool and interesting album. It's fairly unique in it's song structure. Melodic vocals come in often enough to give the songs dynamics and these sections are well-done with the vocals sounding serious and non-emo. It's very energetic and has lots of groove. There's some pretty unique guitar work as well. Production is great. The album is full of talent (mostly the drumming). Unique, catchy, and well-written even amongst a genre that's known for having unique ideas.

Last Days of Humanity - Putrefaction in Progress [2006]
Fuckin' amazing. The most brutal shit ever. Fast as fuck. The energy is enormous. The quality of the production is shitty, but it's just barely enough to make out, it's still heavy as fuck, and definitely serves the brutality of the music. The vocals are insane. The album isn't very long (26min), but that's a good length for it; it doesn't overstay it's welcome. I would normally complain about the production quality and the lack of variation between the songs, but those issues are completely insignificant when looking at how brutal the music is. In fact, those cons may actually be necessary for the brutal experience.

Last Days of Humanity - In Advanced Haemorrhaging Condition [2004]
Now we really get to the LDoH that I know and love. Absolutely brutal. Blisteringly fast. Fucking disgusting. Entirely beautiful.

Last Days of Humanity - Hymns Of Indigestible Suppuration [2000]
Best production quality so far. However, I'm noticing that, as the quality increases, the brutality seems to decrease. Certainly not as exciting as PiP.

Last Days of Humanity - The Sounds Of Rancid Juices Sloshing Around Your Coffin [1998]
Wow, probably has the best production quality of all of the albums. I can actually hear what the guitars are doing. Unfortunately, the blasting/grinding is mostly buried by the guitars.
