It grew on me a little bit when I listened to it a lot before I saw them play the whole thing on the Contortionist Language/Exoplanet tour. But Jake's delivery carries a lot of it for sure and then it was one of the first shows where he left the band and stopped touring with them so Biggs took last minute front man duties and it was incredibly disappointing lmao

All I fuckin wanted was to hear him come out and scream, I WANT CHORE MONAYYYYYYYYYYY
Only other time I saw them was at St Vitus with Black Crown Initiate back when only Conscious Seed was out, fun show but also their material at the time wasn't nearly as strong.

Album Rating: 5.0

Nomos... it starts off a bit slow but my god, the back-half of this thing is a monster. I know people don't like it as much as Owls but Idgaf



Definitely give it another chance if the mood strikes

Album Rating: 3.5

I think MORE? is a hardcore 5/5 for a couple reasons, and then I honestly do fade out a little bit until Terrestria IV makes me pretty horny again. This album has a lot of high marks and good progressive ideas imo, it just loses steam at certain parts.

Album Rating: 3.5

It blows my mind that this album seemed to become such a 5 vs 2 score argument. I am honestly glad many feel that Owls is closer to classic territory, because that album did and has carried a great deal of resonance for me.

Album Rating: 5.0

Void, MORE?, Episode, Maybe One Day, and the closer are all classics to me. The first half is good but I don't care about it too much

Album Rating: 2.5 | Sound Off

Giving this band one more chance with the new album but im guessing ill be getting off this ride

Album Rating: 1.5

Everything before this rules but yeah new one is probably gonna blow.

Album Rating: 3.5

I agree that the first half is weaker @Art although Black Clockwork is one of my favorite tracks on the album. The singles aren't really where it's at

Album Rating: 4.0

New song didn’t do much for me at all sadly

Album Rating: 2.0

not surprised the new song is doo doo given this band's only good record is monarchy but man the direction these guys went is horrible lol

Album Rating: 3.0 | Sound Off

alright I bumped the rating a bit, it's not the worst and has like 3-4 solid ass songs... but it still doesn't do much elsewhere

Album Rating: 2.5

First single was really good, this new one is boring as shit

Album Rating: 4.0

^ agreed. And we already know 2 other tracks that came out previously, and there again one is pretty good and the other eh. So this will probably be hit or miss

yyeeeaaaaah new single did literally nothing for me, in one ear out the other, which is a shame because they're talented musicians, but for my tastes this ain't it

I will give that another spin Art!!! My memory is terrible, I keep forgetting to hit up my Listen List

Album Rating: 2.0 | Sound Off

I've actually kind of enjoyed most of the new singles but they just haven't had much staying power for me. But I have a feeling I might like the new album a lot more than their previous

Album Rating: 3.5

I honestly thought the newest single had some very effective groove moving at times. But I'll tell you what, we really are in a new era with the band. Almost impossible to imagine a Terraria V fitting into an LP now. Hell that's probably half of their brainstorming rn

@sharkmsc



Black Clockwork wasn't exactly my favourite but in retrospect? Kind of a badass track

New single was kind of boring. Singer is pretty one-dimensional and didn't think the cleans vibed with the song. They sort of threw everything at the wall with American Death.

Album Rating: 4.0

I’ve noticed that too, the cleans, whether good or bad across tracks, seems out of place a lot it’s weird

Album Rating: 5.0

Idk wtf happened to this band other than Jake leaving but it's really weirding me out. Feels like something important got broken between albums
