I'm actually kinda surprised at how much I'm enjoying the vocals here, considering how weak Shadows sounded on the singles

Also, the intro of G is some BTBAM circus-prog shit and I love it

probably just me, but I jammed To End the Rapture right after the t/t and somehow it feels perfect.



The band has come full circle.



I’m so happy with how this record turned out

Only on sputnik will you see so many high ratings for a shitty avenged sevenfold album lol. 2004 wants its mainstream generic metal record back.

This is probably the most avant-garde thing happening in mainstream metal today, tbh

I can't say it truly qualifies as avant-garde at all. Only avant garde if you don't listen to avant garde a lot. I'll admit there are some pleasantly surprising moments on this though.

Aight honestly, they’re the band that got me into heavier music, so I’m biased af. I just never expected anything like the Stage from them. And I definitely didn’t expect anything like this.





it’s just something else. Idc if it’s a avant garde or whatever. It’s fucking awesome.

@milliondead: That's why I used the qualifier of "in mainstream metal". I'm aware that there's plenty of more experimental stuff going on out there :]

ok honestly I wish Spencer Sotelo was doing vocals on this, it'd be bordering a 5 if he was.

And Beautiful Morning sounds like a thrash Alice In Chains so that song gets extra points

Beautiful Morning is like if they combined AiC and early System of a Down. Such a fun listen

Is it me or does Shadows sound like he's emulating the Rev vocally a bit in Beautiful Morning? The refrain around 3:15 sounds like the Rev in a way

maybe a hot take, it’s been a minute since I’ve listened to it. But this is like it Pinkly Smooth got back together in 2023 and made another album
