With debut albums, you really have to be subjective and realize that the band is just starting out and working towards their identity. With Uncured, you have a band that plays progressive metal with a touch of the technical and a mix of a few other styles. The resulting sound is pretty refined and unique, but it isn't without its bumps along the way. The songs get a little tedious at times with their precision and technicality and feel more manufactured than organically created. But I'm definitely a fan of the sound the band is trying to create and feel with a few more years, they will be a formidable force in metaldom.
