Description
Triple edition on green vinyls with trifolded cover and 9 bonus tracks. Limited 500 copies
Threshold’s second offering and it doesn’t quite follow Wounded Land’s (their debut) progressive blueprint but, instead, goes off into a power metal direction. For whatever reasons, Psychedelicatessen is a heavier, more powerful version of Threshold. But is it a better Threshold? Similar bands to Threshold as heard on Psychedelicatessen might be a heavier, less progressive Dream Theater or a heavier, less progressive Shadow Gallery. I’ll admit it, I was disappointed with this release. I wanted something a bit more like Wounded Land. Similar to the debut or not, I think Psychedelicatessen just isn’t as strong overall. It’s good but not great. I know Threshold fans are divided on Psychedelicatessen; either it’s considered Threshold’s best studio release (they have five studio albums as of this writing) or it’s considered their weakest (but still good). Make of that what you will. Those who prefer power over progressive will probably like this one more than Wounded Land.
