I mean yeah but no-one mentioned that album

reckon I could have stomached this hungover at like 21 (in fact I did!)... but now? No f'ing chance, lol

preferred belting out Jane Doe to beat my headache into oblivion instead during those days tho

I definitely can see why this is the only album of theirs that you would listen to if this is the specific sound that you wish that they'd stuck with, but I feel like even their heavier stuff got heavier on later albums. It just happened to coincide with more melodic sections.



That said, DEP is like 1 of maybe 2 or 3 metalcore bands that I can think of that makes their clean sections work or actually add something to the song. Most metalcore with clean vox is pretty shit.

i like cleans a lot when theyre simplistic and just there to compliment the heaviness. i really liked the cleans on vein.fms this world is going to ruin you and underoaths disambiguation. but when they go really extravagant with them it bothers me for some reason. sounds cocky or something to me and i think it doesnt fit the style of music. having said that, i have a soft spot for the over produced falsetto cleans from 2000s scenecore so im a hypocrite

It’s valid though! I normally hate that shit too. It just works in DEP for me for some reason.

"shoulda never added cleans"

It's not so much that it would've been a conscious decision at this stage in their career, it's more that they got a singer afterwards that was extraordinarily capable of doing them.

Let's not forget the EP with Mike Patton either.

Greg cleans were mostly an asset, but his lyrics + songwriting input on Dissociation combined for a real whingefest on several tracks. Guy's Patton worship was blessed, his nods to Reznor much much less so
