A short word on Edwardson’s vocals too. They’re absolutely incredible – the more so for how sparingly they’re used. Once or twice on each record, the band wheel him out like a 10ft ogre in chains. I’m sure I wasn’t the only one who suspected his voice might have been pitched down in the studio, but after seeing the band play “Eye” live, hearing Edwardson yell “drooooooooown!” while staring out into the crowd, I was vehemently proven wrong. Coupled with the grotesque, rhythmically lopsided riff beneath him, it’s one of the most horrible moments on the entire record.
