they're just, safe, basic, not really the kind of writing that suits them well. Nightmare holds an extra special place for me.

Lost's verses are peak Shadows, afraid he doesn't have that kind of power left anymore. Though he did try nicely enough in the chorus of Paradigm

The synths are just so ridiculous.



Which is funny considering what their new album sounds like

Lost is definitely one of my favorites here. I got used to the autotune over time, and the harmonies during the main riff are excellent

what do you hate about it then koris?



I just think the beyond corny lyricism along with autotune on Lost, literally all of Dear God and Unbound, and A Little Piece of Heaven has got my rating so low.



I love Afterlife, def one of their best tracks. Critical Acclaim (minus the shouty right wing bullshit), Almost Easy, and especially Brompton Cocktail are great.



I could take or leave most everything else.

I used to unironically have this at a 1 because I just couldn't stand most of it, but thankfully it's grown on me over time. Still, I think my problem comes with just how much of a mess this album is. While I admire the band for expanding their sound after CoE, there are several songs here that I see as failed exerpiments - notably Scream, A Little Piece of Heaven, and Dear God. And even the highlights here don't exactly match my favorite songs from City of Evil and Waking the Fallen.



So yeah, this is still my least favorite A7X album, although I certainly don't hate it at much as I used to. Afterlife, Almost Easy, Lost, and Gunslinger are all pretty damn good in retrospect

I said this elsewhere, but I see Life Is But a Dream as a fully-realized version of what this album was going for

Completely agree. Self titled crawled so Life is But a Dream could run

Damn if I’m not mistaken this was low and got to a 2.9. Wasn’t it at like a 2.6 or 7 or something?



New record really has people reevaluating their shit lol
