Reply to comment by rsplatpc in Mozart is in your Room and he wants you to show him what Music has evolved into. What Song/Theme/Band/Album/OST/Score do you show him? by ah0xg0

?? No. Lateralus . Undertow is an average album by a great band.

You gotta ease him into it :-P

Also I was at my most impressionable when Undertow came out, I have a soft spot in my heart for it

Their best album, actually. So much energy and raw awesomeness. New albums are good but more planned. It's very root centric. Still good. Lats is killer.

Undertow was much more harmonically diverse. And it was prime may may.

Hard disagree.

You can like lats better. That's fine. But it's an objectives fact that undertow had more going on harmonically. I don't think they used the flat 5th on lats at all.

Both killer albums.
