when I'm listening to Fires within Fires on my computer library, the albums are alphabetical and Reach flows right into the Given to the Rising. The flow is fucking perfect! Listening to Given to the Rising right after Fire Within Fires makes a lot of sense. Given to the Rising still stands today a fucking stellar album

Neurosis didn't write or compose this music. It already existed concealed within the buried catacombs of the human soul. They just uncovered it. By unlocking their own souls.

i dunno, TSIB is more intense and chaotic, but I don't think it goes to as dark and ugly a place as Given to the Rising... Through Silver in Blood sounds like a tumultuous alchemical transformation in some nether realm teeming with ayahuasca entities or something... Given to the Rising sounds like a soul crushing itself inside of its shell until all that is left is a void...

there's no way that this album is the weakest since world as law, what are you talking about? Given to the Rising is very good, it's a 9/10 Album.(Given to the Rising, To the Wind, Water is not enough, Origin, Fear and Sickness, Hidden Faces) it's on my top 3 Neurosis Albums: Through Silver and Blood The Eye of Every Storm Given to the Rising

@Riffdissonance no I'm unable to contradict myself. I'm going to have to say their worst album to date. It feels uninspired and it's just bland. It has some fantastic moments, no doubt. But Neurosis's older albums destroys this one.

My favouite. I think it has the best mix of beautiful post-rock and crushing sludge, seems the most organic and it feels atmospheric the whole way

Awesome album, nowhere near as good as Times of Grace or A Sun That Never Sets though.
