With their current album Scarsick, the members around mastermind Daniel Gildenlöw are back with a vengeance. Pain Of Salvation have impressively created an opus that couldn't have been more multi-faceted and diverse. Progressive metal with touches of slightly dark sounds that are wrapped in remarkable structures and surprising turns. Despite, or even because of its love of detail, this piece of work sounds whole in all its entirety. A creative masterpiece, which only very few in the genre of prog metal are capable of.
