Apparently the concept for this album mainly came from the drummer Matt. The production really pushes the drums up front I’ve noticed. Intentional?

Album Rating: 3.5

it's a fun cover jr! kind of a preview of their later stuff. they'd do it even better today no doubt.

I think Talk is still my favorite though.



Second half falters a bit but the first half is almost perfect. Also Nolly smashed the mix on here. Sounds soooo dirty.

yeah talk is like top 10 periphery for me prob. everyone dies alone really grew on me too, such a good hook.

It is a super dirty full ass mix. Works wonders for what they’re going for here, a bit more focused on rhythm and crushing atmosphere

Full, dirty and ass don’t quite go together as I’m reading that comment back

Album Rating: 3.7

Definitely a crushing atmosphere!

Also, I'm not a huge fan of Will Ramos, but those growls on Subhuman are fantastic.

I agree. I don’t jam whatever his band is called but I like the feature there. It’s also my favorite song here

Getting some cyberpunk 2077 vibes in this. Blackwall is an obvious hint to said game and there are some backing synths on Mr.god that sound very cyberpunk-esque
