ABR lyrics are generic enough that you're only going to see the Christianity if you're really looking for it, except for maybe their first two albums



they have some bangers but lyrics are not why

Instrumentally they're amazing. But yeah, I agree - the lyrics aren't noteworthy by any means.

Thrice lyrics are way more obviously Christian than the lyrics of ABR.



And yeah, good to see they have an actual album cover on the next one. Excited for the features, will check once it's drop but not as hyped as I used to be for this band previously.

And agreed Jay, new album art is great and a nice return to form. Let the AI Mickey Mouse mistake live in infamy.

New song is pretty good. Behemoth is even growing on me now. Actual album art is a big positive this time but the art itself is just kinda meh.

I actually love Guardians art but it’s far and away my least favorite album lol. Probably either constellations or thrill seeker for me

it really is. we've for sure had this convo before lol. but i've never understood why it is not held in the same regard as their other albums. i love the odd experimental tinges to it. stands out a lot. also carpe diem is one of my favorites.

bands usually take flak for experimenting, it's not uncommon

fair but they did take that and run with it. leveler kind of set the foundation for albums that are more well regarded. i guess i don't get why it seems like the odd stepchild lol

2011 was an awkward time for music

I remember we didn't really have much rise to the top compared to years prior

Completely agree futures. I’ve always thought it was so weird it got mixed reception. It’s literally the same as every ABR album, maybe with even more highlights.
