5.0 out of 5 stars Believer does it again!, April 18, 2006

By 

TheMetalhead (Virginia) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Dimensions (Audio CD)

This, Believer's last cd, is nothing short of amazing. Its more technical than Sanity Obscure and has some Avant Garde elements. The Trilogy Of Knowledge is a 20+ minute song in 3 parts with violens and operatic singing mixed with the Thrash(like Dies Irae on Sanity Obscure).Its definatley one of the highlights of the album.This re-issue includes 3 bonus tracks wich are the worst part of the cd.They're live tracks but the sound is just horrendous.Other than that this re-isuue is well worth the price(and don't take to long to buy it cause there are only 1000 of them made!).

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Work That Believer Has To Offer, March 1, 2006

By 

Freeman "Ashe" (home) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Dimensions (Audio CD)

After listening to this album, I at first did not know what to think. It wasn't as heavy as heavy as Extraction From Mortality and Sanity Obscure, but however, it was very melodic and without a doubt, the most technical of the three that Believer released. At first, I thought that Extraction was the best and Sanity Obscure was rushed, and that this album was beyond rushed, but after REALLY listening to it, I would say that this is their best work. Unfortunately, I cannot say which album I find to favor the most, but I will say that it is not Extraction From Mortality. Even though Extraction has my number one favorite Believer song called Shadow Of Death, The album itself is a let down compared to the later two.

Sanity Obscure is kind of between Extraction and Dimensions because Sanity obscure is very technical like Dimensions, and is Heavy/Head-banging like Extraction. Most people seem to favor that album the best, when I personally do not know what to think. I will say that I do find this masterpiece to CURRENTLY be my favorite since I haven't completely listened to Sanity Obscure like I did Dimensions.

Reguardless of the fact that this album is not as heavy as the other two nor do I think it was intended to be, it still delivers strongly to Thrash Metal, but more in an artwork type of way with the melody and technique used in it.

The best work is not always the favorite, which is why I am still confused as to what album is my favorite, but it doesn't change the FACT that this album is the bands best work. 10/10

4.0 out of 5 stars Dont Pass On This One, July 14, 2008

By 

Godjunkie (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Dimensions (Audio CD)

I remember years ago I looked at this CD in a local used record store. I had never heard of Believer and had no idea what they sounded like so i didn't get the cd. But i never forgot about it seeing it and years later after reading some reviews and listening to some samples i decided that when i found it at the right price i would get it. A few weeks ago i found it at the right price and got it and i was not disappointed.
If you like metal that is technical in nature you will love this. Time changes abound as do guitar solos. Though i will never profess to know a lot about styles of metal this seems to me to be old school metal.
This is a thinking metal fans record. The lyrical references listed in the liner notes include Stephen Hawking,Einstein,Rudolf Theil and others as well as the NIV Study Bible.The lyrics are heady stuff for sure but that fits well with the music. This record is very open about God and mans attempts to place reason and logic before Him. Lyrically i give this record high marks. The lyrics fit perfectly with the music. Intelligently written music needs intelligently written lyrics.
I must admit i don't care for the female vocals in the last few tracks. They sound to operatic for my taste but the operatic vocals do fit in with the theme of "Trilogy Of Knowledge" which is a four track suite that ends the record. Still i would have preferred the record without the operatic vocals.
Stand out tracks include "Gone"."Dimentia","What Is But Cannot Be" and "No Apology". This is a great record that i highly recommend to any fan of metal music. I wish i had bought it at that record store years ago.
