Album Rating: 2.5
Yeah, I never quite understood why 1.6-1.9 and 1.1-1.4 ratings were off-limits to staffers, considering the rest of the .1 increments are fair game

Giving a record a 1.1 would be a funny move
like “hey this record is complete fucking dogshit but there was that few seconds of cowbell that I enjoyed”

I was always kinda iffy on Almost Easy but seeing it live the other night made me fall in love with it. Easily my favorite behind Afterlife and Brompton Cocktail. The whole band doing harmonies during the chorus is legitimately fucking beautiful.

Gunslinger was very good live too which was never a song I really cared for.
And then they had go and ruin it by closing with A Little Piece of Heaven instead of Cosmic like they did the night before. I’m so fucking sick of that song. Taking up 8 minutes of set time. Objectively they’ve made worse songs but at this point it’s probably my most hated song they ever wrote.

Idk where else to point this out but I’ll do it here since it was recorded during these sessions, it’s truly wild to me that Demons didn’t make the cut for this record. It’s better than everything here aside from Afterlife. I’d say Dancing Dead is pretty rad too, it throws you off by being way slower tempo than normal and then Syn busts through with a fucking insane solo. The chorus is catchy as a motherfucker too.
If you take the best tracks off this and the best tracks off Diamonds in the Rough you’d legit have a pretty good album. I might make that playlist.
