    Um. Good album, yes. But 'Texas metal band'? How can the Pyramids be remotely classified as metal? They're one of those progressive electronic bands of the sort Pitchfork usually likes. (Not this time I guess).

    Pyramids can sound like several songs playing at once, a psychedelic instrumental played backward, or the muffled recording of a session two rooms away. [July 2008, p.155]

    Fans of Jesu will enjoy the boisterousness of some arrangements here, the incessant crushing of the listener’s resistance.

    Pyramids leaves its mark as an extremely remarkable and impressive début, and once heard, is unlikely to be forgotten.
