i think that all this stuff is a resurgence of what it was like to play shred before that manner of songwriting got dated sounding. these dudes obviously play really really well and they definitely know their audience. they are educated musicians writing music for educated musicians in hopes that if people can figure out what they're doing that they'll get "respect" or "cred" from people who give a shit about guitar playing. unfortunately, most non musicians don't give a shit about guitar playing.
i like the way these guys do it, but i'm probably biased because i usually like this whole progressive "djent" metal genre and i give a shit about guitar playing. it's obviously not everyones cup of tea and you definitely can't see a dude wearing a shirt and tie when you're listening to the record and vacuuming the living room. great for driving too. you kinda loose yourself in all the twists and turns. maybe it's not so great for driving.
