4.0 excellentStargazer777 | October 14th 17

Very beastly album. Anyone giving this below a 2
needs to unclog their ears.

2.0 poorcoma2rium | October 20th 17

This would've ripped back when I was in high school. Anyone giving this above a 2 needs to stop lying to themselves about this band being any good since [id]

2.5 averageDarthHideous1 | October 18th 17

Their worst album yet. The instrumentation is p cool as usual but the choruses don't do anything for me and I find nothing interesting about them. Also 45 minutes is a bit excessive for a VoM album.

1.5 very poorJeetJeet | October 14th 17

How they managed to make something worse than Matriarch is beyond me.

Didn't know Periphery had a 2017 release!!!

2.5 averageReebok69 | October 20th 17

People will hate on this because of the shift in sound, but VoM has always been fun and groovy, and "False Idol" just further solidifies that. It's the same band, just now adding in some foreign elements like clean vocals and extra backing tracks. It damn near out-Periphery's the real Periphery for me. Front half of the album is just such quality. I'd say this is on par with Matriarch.

3.0 goodsempiturtle | October 13th 17

These guys are basically a second-rate Periphery now.... its just ok.

0.0 ColonelWang | October 3rd 17

Wasn't a fan of Matriarch because everything sounded too soft, but they've got those crunchy tones back. Should be pretty decent

3.5 greatBarksdale | June 7th 22

Best Tracks: Lull, Fracture, Overthrow, Whistleblower, Echo Chamber, Manichee, Citadel.

Bump

3.5 greatvargaspablo82 | October 24th 17

Although it's far from their best, It's still a good album.rClean Vocals don't really dfo it for me, remind me too much of periphery.rI hope they go back to scream-only vocals.

Bump

2.5 averageajcollins15 | October 21st 17

Veil of maya gets way way way to much hype to me! Yes they are talanded musicians and make some pretty heavy metalcore and deathcore fusion, but like its nothing original! None of there work is that original

Bump

3.0 goodPrionZzZ | October 20th 17

Would've been fantastic if this was a Volumes album, but as Veil of Maya I'm 5 tracks in and have yet to hear any interesting licks apart from rhythmic chugging. Not bad inherently, just not why I liked Veil of Maya...

Bump

3.0 goodplatelamp | October 20th 17

Its just good. The Spencer Sotelo choruses don't belong, and only really shine well in Overthrow, everything else is garbage. Does nothing for the album. There are some stand out tracks though, so its a 3.

Bump

5.0 classicSeanicito | October 20th 17

Solid record. Do they have a different singer? Nonetheless, a jam all the way through.

Bump

3.0 goodNocturtle | October 16th 17

Its a less flashy version of matriarch more emphasis on grooves, nothing special but moderately enjoyable
