If you listen all the way through and still don't like it, I get that.
If you listen to the first couple of minutes, skim through to validate your disdain for this genre of music, that's weak.
Appreciation of music is very subjective, but mastery of an instrument is objective. Â These fuckers can play. Â And I like what they do with that ability as well. Â Definite purchase.

ya, i am checking this out for the first time now. As usual Danny stands out as usual but over all as songs they get a tad lacking. they are def a jam band. not knocking jamming but it does feel like jams and not songs sometimes. they go off in diff directions and feel a bit lost once in awhile. at first i thought 'whopner' was pretty cool but then it gets sorta boring.
LIVE i would like it more too. anything live is better though. so ya, i do like it but its a little on and off. still good music though but not super great or something

I'ma let you finish... but I've listened to the whole beautiful mess more than a dozen times and it just keeps getting better. Â Volto! is not a jam band. Â It's much closer to progressive rock with a lot of other elements and genres mixed in... a Fusion of genres rooted in Progressive Rock. Â
The reason I differentiate this from a "Jam Band" is due to the accepted connotation for the term:
jam band Â

Jam bands are musical groups whose albums and live performances relate to a fan culture that originated with the 1960s group Grateful...
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jam_band
I know there are Phish and GD fans here and I'm not trying to piss you off, but there is a ton of aimless noodling associated with that genre that I don't find at all with Volto! Â It's very focused and musically complex. Â Apparently live they go off on tangents and improvise the fuck out of their tunes, but again, with their level of musicianship the end result is far from noodling.
And above all, it's so killer to hear Danny going off and enjoying himself in a way he can't with Tool. Â Not that he doesn't go off and enjoy what he does with Tool... it's just so musically different.
Really bummed I've yet to see them live and will miss out again this round.

seeing them improvise live would be great! i am close to buffalo but do not have a passport and my vibe on this one is they will canada sometime hopefully. so ill wait it out. i gotta listen to it more but on first listen id say i like it at about a 70 percent. thats a better way to sum up what i said a post or two above without getting too nit picky.

I doubt it's accessing the music that is the problem. Â I imagine he wants to actually pay for it.

I dunno, I have no idea what spotflux is, but presumed it was some method of downloading the music.
