While I definitely miss the Brainwashed days, going into this with the intention to judge it on its own terms is definitely required. It's definitely not perfect, and not even particularly well executed for the most part, but it's creative and interesting in more than a few spots. The guitar writing and arrangements in particular definitely shine on songs like To The Flowers and Self Hell, even if the overall songs take bold detours. You can definitely feel that the band were inspired through most of this, even if a lot of the songwriting is questionable at best and the lyrics mostly do not hit. r |

So many excellent riffs and ideas wasted on poor songwriting. Everytime there's momentum built it eventually (and usually sooner than later) gets completely thrown out for an unrelated 2min breakdown or an out of place clean section. It's a shame because the actual material here is really strong, especially on a song like Blood and Teeth or the instrumental track Accelerated Demise. |

Some cool stuff here. Disappointed that the first half is almost purely deathcore though. Insidious Majesty would be a highlight if a Jared was a better singer, it's a super interesting vibe. And then the rest of the album after that is also lot more melodic and experimental. Surprisingly I feel like this could get better with more listens, which is not something I'd expect to say from a Jared Dines album. |

As good as one might reasonably expect from a band like I Prevail. Decently creative for
something in this genre of music and has the perfect balance of catchy and heavy, a balance
they struggled with on Trauma. Also the guitar work is a lot more involved now, with a lot
more guitar leads and harmonies throughout. All in all a very well done album, though some
songs are a bit awkward and could definitely have been trimmed. |

Anberlin Silverline | 4.0 |
Slightly disappointed that the EP doesn't have more bangers like Two Graves or Circles. The
other 3 songs are more in the style of what was found on Lowborn. The difference is that
these are actually all really excellent compared to Lowborn which was massively disappointing
as the band's swan song, so that softens the blow quite a bit. |
Fall of Stasis The Chronophagist | 3.5 |
The more folky stuff is not exactly the kind of stuff I listen to and sometimes the writing on the longer songs lacks a bit of a clear structure. But other than that, the blend of influences is top tier and the vocals work really well. Highlights: The Cult is a perfectly executed banger, Baron has the best melodies on the whole album and the title track is far and away the most interesting and well constructed song on here. Overall, I enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would. |

Bleed from Within Shrine | 3.0 |
As usual with Bleed From Within, the riffs are intricate and the writing is rock solid. However, it's again brought down by being so mid-tempo and repetitive, especially in the second half of the album. Most songs feel almost identical from afar. Highlights are: Flesh and Stone has a dark symphonic atmosphere along with blast beats which isn't what this band is known for. Stand Down is an absolute banger that feels similar to something from Brainwashed-era While She Sleeps. Paradise ends the album on a particularly heavy and oppressive note with a massive and creative breakdown. |
Red Handed Denial I'd Rather Be Asleep | 3.0 |
Feels a bit more formulaic now. And there is not a lot of songwriting going on. The verses
and chorus often feel disconnected, the worst offender being Cloud 9. Still a few fun ideas
and Lauren Babic rarely disappoints vocally, even though her vocal lines aren't as inspired
as they used to be. I do appreciate the toned down heaviness and a bit of a return for the
Protest The Hero influences. |

Memphis May Fire Remade in Misery | 3.5 |
Not exactly an artistic statement or remotely emotionally affecting. It's due to a blend of it being overproduced and (funnily enough) how expertly crafted the songs are. The hooks and riffs all hit, despite it feeling so "fake". |

Shadow of Intent continue their path further away from Deathcore, leaning more and more on the melodeath/prog side of things. Singles are not the best tracks on this and don't quite represent the album's vibe correctly. Some tracks feel filler-ish and the songwriting sometimes uninspired, but overall there is some still some strong material on this. The opener and closing three tracks are top tier metal by any standard. |

He was pretty good on Distance Over Time, but for the first time in the Mangini era he's
actually a highlight. The ways in which he orchestrates these drum parts adds so much to

after all this time. Also helps that this is the best drum sound he's had since joining. |

The Wicked One has probably my favorite chorus
from them. Other highlights include Shadows Rise,
Fields of Bone and Crimson Skies. As usual with
the recent BVB stuff I wish the pace was a bit
quicker at times. It would add variety to what is
mostly a
collection of mid-tempo singles again. Probably
their best album overall even if it's not exactly
the highest bar to cross. |
Lorna Shore ...And I Return to Nothingness | 3.5 |
Middle track is pretty meh and the breakdown feels extremely forced. First and last track are top notch though. To the Hellfire is almost scarily heavy to a grotesque level which is kinda obnoxious but also super memorable and a lot of fun. Title track is a nice change of pace with its lack of breakdowns and almost melodic vocals in the chorus. So yeah 2 killers, 1 filler. |

Atreyu Baptize | 3.0 |
Damn most songs on this are under 3 minutes. How do you expect to explore any interesting song structure or build to climaxes properly. Superhero (on the last album) was a tad long and cheesy but at least it tried to be something bigger.rIt's a shame though because this has the energy this band has been lacking for a while. Some songs are way heavier than I expected and it's decent for what it is for the most part. "Underrated" and "Weed" kinda fuck not gonna lie. Also the screams from bassist Marc McKnight have always been better than those from Alex Varkatzas so there's definitely an upgrade there.rMain issue outside of song length (although probably related) is the disconnect between the verses and choruses, feels really off on songs like "Catastrophe" and "Save Us". Also second half of the album is noticeably weaker ("Warrior" is a shockingly bad closer outside its percussive bridge). |

Stone Leader Falling Down and Future Bird are incredible songs outside of the 4 singles. These Black Claws gets a bad rap (pun intended) here but for me it's a masterclass in efficient groove, subtle songwriting and mood building. Also SHAHMEN's verse works extremely well too. My only gripe is that it really didn't need to go on for 6 minutes.rOverall though, except maybe Freak which is kinda forgettable, this album is wonderful. First VOLA album to really click with me. |

Crusade (USA) Rising Visionary | 3.0 |
Insatiable is a great track but most of the album just kind of left me feeling nothing. Probably a grower to some degree but I do feel like it lacks a bit of energy and overall memorability.

Out of the 5 singles, none is worth higher than a 2.5/3.The hooks are cheap and the
songwriting even more mind-boggingly simple then before. "Brick Wall" is the exception but
it's arguably the worst one of the bunch. Every section that shows promise gets thrown out
for a new non-sequitur segment that ruins it. The best track is probably "Resentment" but
even then it's probably because it's the heaviest and therefore the most easy one to relate
to their past material. Overall, there's just a distinct lack of fun and/or craft to these
tracks. The album could very well end up having some highlights but for now it's not looking
good at all. |

I wish the production on this was as good as it usually is on their recent albums. It's a
substantial enough improvement over the original, but the drums are sooooo sampled and
loud it's pretty distracting. Main MVP here is Andy Biersack though. The screams are
about as abysmal as they once were, but the improvements in his singing voice are quite
large. |

Some nice choruses and riffs. But overall it's extremely underwhelming for a band that has so much technical ability and potential.r |
Bad Wolves N.A.T.I.O.N. | 2.0 |
Such an incoherent mess. The energy and creativity behind the heavier tracks from Disobey is all but gone. Only track remotely like that is I'll Be There which is a fun track. The rest is just a blend of mediocre to awful pop songs. The potential wasted here is mind-boggling. |

Bogged down by an uneven vocal performance, trying to be too ''brutal'' and underwhelming lyrics. However there's a genuine talent for writing riffs, grooves and melodies here. ''Butterfly'' is the definitive highlight of the EP and definitely the path he should follow for future musical endeavors. |

Get a vocalist that's better at singing than screaming and then make him not sing that much. Bad idea. Also this is essentially the same song again and again. There's nothing as interesting as the Skeletal songs from the last album. Not awful overall, but pretty much a snooze fest. |

A band that has all the elements but can't figure it out yet. The two new songs "Retaliation" and "Assassins" are really promising though so let's hope the new album is the band hitting it's stride. |

should keep the funny stuff for YouTube and
write more serious music for albums. |
