I first heard dredg when I went to a club with some friends a few years ago. I instantly loved the sound of them and became a fan. One thing I really enjoy about this band is that they expirment with their sound more than some other bands I know of. The tracks that have marks ratings under 5 are intros to the next song I guess you could say. If you are listening to the album randomly they probably won't seem to fit well. I believe the times I have most enjoyed this album are when I was driving and was able to listen to the whole thing a few times.

 

Overall I would rate this album a 8 out of 10 and I hope that you all check out dredg.

Which were your favourite tracks? and why?

[Davrick]

My favorites are tracks 11, 12, and 15. I also really enjoy 6 a lot as well. Most of the reasons are for the sound of those particular songs and some of the lyrics
