For those in this forum who think that Sylvain Houde was a better vocalist than Maurizio, you are truly mistaken. Not only are Kataklysm a MUCH better band now than they were then, Maurizio's vocals kill, and they are straight forward. I don't know about everyone else, but I think Sylvain's vocals ultimately ruined Temple Of Knowledge. I couldn't understand a damn word he said, and he made these annoying sounds and barks that belong in a zoo. Don't get me wrong, I am an original fan (since Mystical Gate), but I was very relieved to hear him leave. I definetely grew out of that vocal style pretty quick, because after being involved with the scene for so many years, you kinda want something more than barking from such a great band. I think they made all the right choices, even though some were difficult for the band, but look at them now. As far as those who say they have done nothing innovative since Temple of Knowledge, understand that Victims of this Fallen World was a bold and extremely innovative step for any band to take. And by the way, Screw Cryptopsy. They Suck. They wished that they could be as talented, and Kataklysm set the standard for which they are still trying to match. Understand what every Kataklysm Fan already knows.....They rule you all.
