Album Rating: 4.0
Not as instant as the last one for me, think it'll need a few more listens - but when it hits it hits really well. Think the second half is far better than the first and the album is at its least interesting when it just trying to be chuggy beatdown 1234 riff stuff. Production is fine, no issues with production for me.

Ehhhh. I didn't hate this but the utter toilet production job that suffocates and muddies everything, the amount of braindead chugs, and overall tryhard 'look how heavy we are' energy was enough to stop me enjoying the tracks here which could have otherwise been bangers.
I know I am an actual mid-30s millennial but new ones from Converge, PTW and even 100 fuckin Demons top most of the releases from this generation of bands unfortunately

Yeah I honestly kinda hate the production on this. Not because I don't usually vibe with abrasive, overproduced walls of sounds (any Buster Odeholm production, Knocked Loose, Loathe etc.) but it's so poorly executed here and incredibly fatiguing to listen to.

I don't know whether I will like this - I thought their previous album was really good on first impression and then after awhile I changed my mind and thought it wasn't that great.
I cannot imagine I'd hate this but let's see.

Feel like this is so chug heavy that by the mid-point youre exhausted. Fortunately theres a couple more melodic riffy tracks in the back half that are rewarding, most notable Nothing, gathered.
Ive said it before but I dont necessarily think Drew Fulk is good for heavy music.

I thought their last album was really uninspired, but this is really giving it a run for its money

I dunno, I loved Drew Fulk’s work with Knocked Loose, but this feels like a half-assed attempt at hitting the same kind of abrasiveness.

To add on top of that, this band has arguably some of the worst whiny clean vocals I've heard in the genre lately along with 156/Silence. It's incredibly laughable to do the "look how heavy we are" vibes then throw in those pathetic cleans.

the way the album and song titles are written makes me unreasonably angry

"I dunno, I loved Drew Fulk’s work with Knocked Loose, but this feels like a half-assed attempt at hitting the same kind of abrasiveness."
I'm not sure If I can properly articulate it but there is something so synthetic IMO about the guitars on both of these records that I can hardly get past.

Worst album I have heard this year. Embodies everything I hate about mainstream metalcore in 2026
|

I don’t know if you’re trolling or just stupid JR haha production aside if you don’t like this you don’t like Metalcore.
I hated the original mix of skies cast black and I think that was a decision on the whole record and that’s a bummer. Songs great though and I’m still enjoying it quite a bit even though it bums me out cause it could be so much better.

Im enjoying the record so far and don’t hear anything wrong personally with the production 🤷🏻♂️ but I don’t play any instruments or anything lol. I think I prefer death is more for right now though.
