i see your point.
when they do psychedelic drone metal, they do things that are out of this world, unique to them mostly; but they sometimes do things where they are merely capable or ok.
i do agree that the bulk of pink, akuma no uta, heavy rocks, that vibe isn't very original. this i appreciate because they do something experimental bands hardly do, which is they rock (it's dumb, i know); they can do stupid things like play motörhead-like and have fist pumping songs and i like that, that they mix this with their deeper sounds is a good combination (mostly live, though).
but now that you brought it up, i do miss them go to the deep end of drone; they need to focus on that in a new release. i myself don't find their recent output bad but, something like that is missing.
