Henrik Sundqvist I never know if I like the screaming or the quieter parts more. Both make me melt away into their beautiful soundscapes. Thank you for creating this otherworldly music experience. Favorite track: Two Isolated Souls.

XUN Beautiful record with a lot of sweet catchy melodies! Favorite track: Shining Finger.

John Buehler This was the first envy album I ever heard. I cherish it dearly. I still find new things to love about it each listen. Favorite track: Ticking Time and String.

about

Despite its relative brevity (at 43 minuntes it is Envy's shortest album since their early 90s thrash days), Atheist's Cornea is easily the band's most progressive work. Beginning with a punishing pummel, holes of light are gradually punched open to reveal an uncanny series of dynamic, emotionally charged epics. Not only does Atheistʼs Cornea showcase some wholly unexpected new turns for Envy, it also often reaches transcendent heights that could overwhelm a major blockbuster film — all while vocalist Tetsuya Fukagawa sings, screams, and speaks like his life depended on it. Atheist's Cornea is the purest, most distilled example of Envy's brand of brilliance. It is also their bravest album, taking new risks with a much welcomed, broader vocal palette and an instrumental experimentation that navigates blistering shifts from impenetrable noise to poetic, pin-drop introspection with astounding grace. Envy have finally mastered the art of being effective and efficient without sacrificing an ounce of either – a truly inspired evolution from a band whose mastery of both remains unparalleled.
