Awesome - make sure you get ...The Marriage Of Heaven And Hell and Perdition City. Easily two of the best purchases I've ever made.

And to finish the quote "...but failures always sounded better. Let's fuck it up boys, make some noise!!". I can see how anyone could consider he voice a bit caustic at times but it's nothing when compared to the guttural growls and distorted screams I'm used to listening to.
I suppose it's just a matter of taste but I can't imagine anyone considering the tracks Lua, Time Code, Gold Mind Gutted, Down in A Rabbit Hole, Take It Easy Love Nothing, We Are Nowhere And It's Now, First Day Of My life.... as anything but beautiful - especially the vocals.
