you know for an album that's almost 90 minutes, it's surprisingly well paced



the beginning does drag a little bit but that's really the only issue for the most part

Surprised how much I like the vocals on it. I remember the vocals for this band being very different than this.

yeah the vocals have way chilled. I guess Brent decided he doesn't like making metal so that's a thing.

New one is their best since Crack the Skye for me, getting more out of it than this and the other 2 LP's.

Loads of filler on that one, better than the Hunter though.



This one starts and ends well but loses me in the middle for a couple of songs.

Some fat could definitely be trimmed, but the new record definitely has some of their best material in years.
