I just started listening to this band and I really like them. Seeing them in San Francisco next week!

this is a great record, but i just wish they moved into more of that experimental style they were using on the split albums they did with thursday and jesu. also, lead singer Tetsuya Fukagawa has become a more gravely screamer than he once was. i think it adds to the sort of desperation i get from their music. as for the instrumentation, it's heads and heals above most recent outputs. can't wait to see them in denton, texas on the 25th!!!

Terrific band, great album.

I cannot say enough good things about this band or their new album. This is easily my favourite release of the year and they put on an amazing live show.

Saw these guys play in Allston, MA a few weeks ago. Absolutely phenomenal show. Now that Isis has broken up, Envy are the torchbearers for intricate, thoughtful, and aggressive music.

Where is a good place to start with envy if I prefer screamo to post rock

Piata (October 13, 2010)

All the footprints you've ever left and the fear expecting ahead.

A Dead Sinking Story is also worth a listen. The post-rock elements don't really take center stage until Insomniac Doze.
