"@Alex you're for real? I was almost certain that 5 was a troll rating. Glad to be wrong, if I indeed am."



i don't think its an actual 5 but its prob like a 4 yeah.



i don't finish / don't really care to discuss stuff i don't like so i kinda stopped rating things after i realized i only give things a 3.5 or above

Album Rating: 1.5

Oh, this is real bad. Real bad. How in the world did two of these songs end up over 5 minutes?? So many parts feel like they just ad-libbed on a random synth, tracked it, and then wrote a song around it.



As someone who has barely listened to A7X, there are a few fun parts--like the groove in "Rejoice." But man, the rest is not good. And I'm sure it's compound 7X for folks who have their older stuff in regular rotation...

Some dude on YouTube used a huge paragraph to describe all of his musical influences and favorite bands to try to justify his liking of this album.



"I'm also the same person who enjoys stuff like clipping., Psyopus, Jute Gyte and Krallice so I guess I'm far gone. Statica is pretty sick"



Ok bro. You can like Krallice and still think this album is ass

Album Rating: 2.0

Clipping sucks too makes sense

Krallice slays, this is complete shit.

Jute Gyte's too niche and bizarre to be a casual namedrop so maybe that person really does see something in this. Can't say what it is!

I enjoy Corey Feldman. Statica is pretty sick.

ultimately i just love the fact that they've acknowledged they're set for life and they'll be able to play arenas forever off the back of their 2005-13 material... so why not continue to challenge yourself artistically and do whatever the hell you want since there's zero consequences for failing?



they could be printing money just doing the safe nostalgia bait bullshit slipknot, lamb of god, bullet, and nearly every other metal band who has ever vaguely reached their level has been doing for who knows how long now. feels nice to know one of these huge bands is still in it purely for the love of the game.

What in the primordial proboscis monkey's unsettling mating ritual is going on here?

idk, I think "challenge" in art needs to mean something. That last Slipknot album was touted as their "experimental" one and it sucks ass.

Album Rating: 5.0

that last slipknot album is about as experimental as a turkey sandwich haha.



def get what you mean in terms of "experimental does not always equal good/artistically worthy" tho. the most recent turnstile, loathe, and arguably charli albums are all testament to that to varying degrees.

This may be "experimental" but it also sounds cheaply made. The drum programming sounds like shit

Album Rating: 5.0

i def think the lo-fi production is more of a feature than a bug. i remember the magic single last year was considerably more lo-fi than libad and it kinda sounding like shit, but they've pushed it even further on here and i kinda dig how antiquated it sounds in contrast to all the "modern" sounds they're playing with, like you're listening through the speakers of one of those crummy 80s tvs with all the knobs.

Tempted to 5 this

im shocked by how poor this is. LIBAD was already not my cup of tea, but at least i could feel the A7X in it, even if its buried under a load of pretentious bullshit. i detect no soul in this one.

"that last slipknot album is about as experimental as a turkey sandwich haha."

I think Corey Taylor was touting it as their OK Computer or something, completely delusional.

lmao this is painful to get through

No one else can autofellatiate like Corey Taylor

this is such steaming garbage lmao



guarantee gen alpha will discover this in 20 years though and hail it as the defining ep of the era
