He's crappy at writing objective reviews. The only fact he stated in the whole thing was that the guitar was loud, and his Deep Peace description described himself (listens to too much prog) more than the song itself.

lots of "old school prog" fans tend to be REALLY close minded. music fans, are not.

Even when i was first getting into Terria, and i did not like it... at all... I KNEW there was something bigger there, that i just wasn't getting... so i went through it again then it finally clicked.

I remember reading a review from one of the DREAM THEATER fan club magazine about Terria.... it was really intruiging, because the review said basically what i just said that.. at first he didnt like it, but in between listens, he felt that he should listen to it again, as if something was drawing him to it.

then i HAD to hear it myself.

lol thats how I felt about the first few devin albums i heard too (terria, haarht and city i think)

but in between listens, he felt that he should listen to it again, as if something was drawing him to it.

You know, I've had that feeling for couple of months now and about a week ago I really started to listen Terria properly.

At first I thought Terria was just a good record with two or three excellent songs, some good songs and the rest not worth listening. I listened it 6 or 7 times through and I was disappointed.

Now, after giving it a second chance, I feel so stupid. Terria must be one of THE best records ever made.
First theres olives: there never happens much but it has this weird hypnotizing atmosphere around it which makes you waiting for more.
Then there is Mountain, Earth Day, Deep Peace (the solo is so awesome), Canada and so on. Not a single bad song. They're all just so great I'm sure I'll never get bored of Terria. Amazing, just amazing.

Terria is like cannabis. The first time is kinda cool but mostly weird and confusing, the second time is a little more relaxed and comfortable, and the 10th time is awesome.

At least that's how it was for me

I've listened Terria three times today I'm addicted.

Cannabis is like sex with men. Never tried it and never will.

Hahaha, never knew what hit ya, a stab in the back, that weird feeling ... it all makes sense now.

What do you mean?
Oh wait. So Terria is like cannabis and cannabis is like sex with men....
----> Terria is like sex with men?!? Ok. I take it back

Terria is like having 5 climaxes in an hour.

This music describes the best what is a monolithic electric guitar! I have never heard a more monolithic electric rhythmic guitar than on this record: that's completely ridiculous! This brutal guitar is so distorted and polluted with tons of useless effects that it takes all the available room! As if it was not enough, the musician seems to take a huge pleasure to exaggeratedly sustain each note, a painful torment for the ears! The rhythmic guitar is COMPLETELY unmelodious. The lead vocals are just simply too angry and aggressive for me. When the lead vocals are more mellow, they amazingly remind me David Gilmour and James LaBrie. There are some good acoustic guitar parts. There are some unconvincing TV or radio sounds, a much worse copy of Roger Waters' effects: they seem too coarsely produced. You can hear some whales-like sounds. There are some rare good passages, so that, globally, this record is not worth a complete listen. The only track that retained more my attention is "Deep peace", starting with an imitation of David Gilmour's voice; an Oldfield-esque guitar solo then begins, followed by an Hillage-esque one, featuring his spacy ambience from the "Green" album; then, it changes to a VERY modest & much slower attempt to emulate the symphonic Yngwie Malmsteen himself. This VERY rebel music is probably perfect for the young people who like disturbing moods.

Rating: 1.5 star

Are we even listening to the same album? And are you saying Devy's production is worse than Pink Floyd's? REBEL music? DISTURBING moods? Terria is one of the most relaxing albums ever! And Devy ripping off everyone on Deep Peace? I am familiar with ALL those artists and I hear none of the similarities. And Devy's voice bears absolutely no similarity with James LaBrie. What a joke.

This is what happens when you have reviewers who only review for free music. They give an album a quick listen, generally just skimming the songs, then do some shitty little write-up and pawn it off on the world. It gets worse when you have an idiotic foreigner that can't speak English and writes the review...in English. Makes sense.

Its like he's not even listening to the lyrics...

That has to be the best worst review Dev has ever gotten

Greenback is TOTALLY out of place as a reviewer on progarchives.com. Just read ANY of his reviews on heavy or experimental stuff... the guy just can't handle it.

Now where would he be into place..?
