This is a dud. Cringeworthy lyrics, accompanied by some very uninspired and corny melodies. Nothing even approaching the quality of tracks like Gravity or Thomas.

True, but I still like this and return to it regularly. It's by far their worst album but I find things to enjoy about it. Hourglass, Fish, and Doomed are classics.

Completely agree. It's awful.

I'm rather positive on this one but Hourglass is god awful

Sounds like the absymal Puscifer crap that Maynard indulged himself in

Haha I don’t care much for Hourglass either. Album is kinda hit and miss, but there are more good songs than bad.

Nothing will top their first two albums; that was a special kind of magic, especially Thirteenth Step.

I love Feathers and Disillusioned.

Solid album through and through, took me just 2 listens to get behind it. Disillusioned theme (lyrics and video) is trite af, but the rest is gorgeous. Love the closer too.



In case someone still wants that alternative cover art, here it is: https://imgur.com/e99L1SS

Why oh why couldn’t it have just been this? I still don’t get the octopus imagery but whatever. This is the image I have for the album art in my iTunes library anyway haha

aside from having no rock songs the auto tune is the worst part for me

This album is proof how a track order can either break or make a good collection of songs.

I can't trust anyone who rates this above 1.5 stars. Maynard weakest man on the record easily. Tried to give this another chance and I hate it even more.

Like this a lot and actually think the track order works really well, especially for the middle songs. Wonder if it maybe should’ve been released under a different name. Tho I guess APC was kind of thrown in a tizzy already with Emotive.

Album sucks and shouldn't have been made, just like eMotive and Fear Inoculum.

I love this album but I’m not an APC fan in general and am not married to whatever previous sound they had.

Yeah there’s so much to love here but some of this, particularly So Long, radiants such old man boomer energy.
