"Like titanic waves rolling across the ocean surface, thousands of leagues from the nearest shores, they crest with tsunami-esque power and then dip, more often than crash, into equally restrained troughs, taking whatever vocal intonation best suits them (sung, whispered, crooned, shouted, growled, roared, etc.) along for the ride. That Ahab is able to navigate those drastic transitions with relative ease (the aforementioned strained melodic vocals notwithstanding) is the true measure of The Giant's evolutionary success; that they produced enough quality material that something as stupendous as "Time's Like Molten Lead" has to be sidelined as a bonus track says even more".
