Maybe I'm biassed in the opposite direction, as I can't stand metal for the most part. In poisoned dreams you have all the important elements; a sense of the ocean, waves, storms... there's the ritualistic chanting and a vast sense of brooding (sleeping??) menace just below the audible range. I love this album and can't wait for the follow up which promises to be more intense.
