A Social Grace 1990

"I think this would probably take some getting used to, but once you get your ears around it, you might appreciate why Psychotic Waltz were very popular among metal musicians across various subgenres in the early 90s. "A Social Grace" is characterized by a quirkiness and complexity that rivals those of Cynic's "Focus" and Fates Warnings "No Exit" and "Perfect Symmetry", and like those three albums, "A Social Grace" was ahead of its time. Compositionally, the tracks on this album are very complex and make use of various changes in time and tempo. The vocals, I think, are very 70s and, at times, the vocal performance is almos Jethro-esque."
