Shout out to the Mass Effect 3 quote at the beginning of Mourning Star. One of the hardest video game quotes.

you have a really great way of pulling the reader along with you. very balanced use of language as well. long review but you justified every paragraph imo and it was a pleasure to read. really excited to check out the record now also, especially glad to hear there are more vocal dynamics going on.

very kind words friend. really appreciate that. i try and keep it conversational and personal but informative in a fun way. still finding my style but i find these engaging to write. i think i know your taste well enough and think you'll dig it! the closer especially imo. lots going on this album and lots of basis in hardcore which i know is your bag.

This album rips the teeth outta my mouth.

Helluva review too, the "caveman Messhugah" is apt. I like to think of their past two releases as mudcore.

that's what i was saying in my review. very hard to think of another band reaching a creative peak that comes with their highest amount of critical praise over 20 years into their career. is there even another band that fits the bill?

I still occasionally see people that lament that JFAC no longer play like on "Doom" lol

JFAC pretty much were THE deathcore band - their evolution is extraordinary - Sun Eater and Moon Healer are fantastic albums but they are definitely more along the lines of tech death with deathcore elements.
