[Helm]

the collector - this song makes it really apparent that you can't rely on trent's voice to carry the burden of the main melody. There's an interesting 'tool-ish' guitar riff behind it all, though. In fact, it's directly lifted from a song on lateralus I think. If this is supposed to 'rock', it's not rocking at all. It's not bad, though. I dig the atonal keyboard bit in the middle. More ideas than I expected.
