    i agree with js by saying of course ld50 came straight from the soul and even trying to compare the end of all things to come with it is pure ignorance

    The best thing to come out of the music scene since Tool's Lateralus. Amazing bass playing and time changes show how well they have progressed and a band. More melodic and certainly more heavy that L.D 50. This one stays in the cd player.

    Their look is cool, but get past it and you'll hear really amazing complex music. This is one of the best metal albums to come out since Meshuggah's "Nothing."

    WOW. The critics really suck. Mudvayne deserves above 80 and every song on this album is sure to impress some shape or form that is deep into the heavy metal genre. I guarantee them to anyone who wants my opionion on this kind of music.

    The critic reviews are why I dont buy any of those magazines. None of them care about this genre of music, so why bother at all. I am a huge fan of LD 50, and this album. I cant believe some of the previous reviews of "The End of All things to Come". This album is one of my favorite over the past 5 years. I listen to everything from John Mayer to Men at Work.

    This is one of the best CDs out there, I cant stand when those magazines get people to Review them, and they dont like that genre. But anyways, this CD is probably the best one out there, from the Paitent Mental to World So Cold, they live up to their Nu-metal status. World So Cold and Silenced are my favorites. Though World So cold does start out a little slow, It gets good.

    Whoever called this "emo" obviously classes everything that isn't Justin Timberlake into a catch-all "goth" catagory. Beleive me, a true emo wouldn't listen to Mudvayne...Mudvayne actually pronounces words in their music, something Emo's don't respect. This is a decent followup to L.D 50.

One thing that is better this time around is that the album is cleaned up (has less filler content). This album lost some of the nu-metal fans of L.D 50 because it isn't in-your-face-screaming and riffs, while at the same time putting itself in that overhead catagory of "metal" that makes most people turn away from it before even listening. Poor condition to be in for sure. This album however does have content that deserves respect. If only for tracks like "World so Cold" which bridges the gap between metal and songs with actual lyric (one of the best songs on a metal album).… Expand

    For all you who voted less than an 8. You are not listening! This album reaches me on so many levels it is not funny. NO other band has influenced me more than MuDvAyNe. Not to many lead singers out there can reach the level that MuDvAyNe dominates. Dont be hurt! If cant handle it. Dont listen. By the way MuDvAyNe is working on there 5th album right now!

    Excellent cd, especially the first half of it. World so cold, not falling, mercy,severity, perversion all amazing songs. gives l.d. 50 a run for its money, but i would rank it a little lower, though im glad there aren't all those excess tracks l.d. 50 had

    I really liked LD 50, their previous album. Maybe that's why I hated this vomitous, tuneless follow-up so much: rather than build on its predecessor's intriguing sound, they've simply made an album that sounds like bad Nothingface covers performed by a stoned cat in a trash can. A few terse riffs escape unscathed.

    Dreadful. Fake, poorly-realised lyrical angst set over horribly derivative riffs. L.D.50 was a pretty good album compared to the rest of the nu-metal scene at the time, featuring some very imaginative bass riffs and a superb production, but Mudvayne evidently ran out of ideas at some point, because this is just pants. And badly-produced pants, at that. One to avoid.

    This album is a great follow up to L.D. 50. It retains a majority of their break-neck power and time changes, but balances with enough melody to show how much the band's sound is maturing.

The album has great meaning to me and is one of my all time favorite pieces of music. For that reason alone, I truly feel let down by their new album. It lacks the depth, intricacy, and pure emotional feeling that LD50 had. After getting to track 10, it feels like the band had run out of ideas and was getting tired. I understand that truly great music just can't be popped out of thin air, that it must have feeling behind it, and I feel that MuDvAyNe shouldn't have rushed this album. I can only hope that these four fine musicians can understand that they automatically set their standards exceptionally high with the masterpiece LD50, and now they must try to keep up to those standards. But I keep faith in the fact that great music can still exist in my time, that it all won't eventually be corrupted by money or fame or laziness or underachieving attitudes or whatever nasty powers there are. MuDvAyNe, take some time to listen to L.D. 50 and then take a good hard look at your new album and try to truthfully say that you are proud of it.… Collapse

    The End is rather ordinary--severe, belligerent riffs and vocals that sound as though singer Chud gargles molten lava. [#12, p.148]

    While the group attacks things with great velocity and singer Chud shreds his larynx at regular intervals, the always difficult follow-up album features actual melodies and mature textures that make the band's eventual transformation into a progressive rock band nearly inevitable.
