The problem is there’s a lot riding on it:
- opening track
- title track
- cover imagery rests on it
- and it lasts an astonishing 10% of the albums total run time!
At that stage you really have to make the song really awesome and it’s just …. OK. Like average OK. It drones on for too long obviously but even then it isn’t spectacular.
If it was buried in the back of the album like Age of Innocence on DoD I wouldn’t care, but to me Senjutsu drops the quality of the album due to its prominence and averageness.
Yes it’s Smith / Harris.
