Did you make this account just to say that comment? And how can you possibly defend "true friends stab you in the front"?

Oh god this is so cringe.



'Why is it bad? '



Because it's generic radio rock with nothing new to add to the genre and completely disregards the progression they made on Sempiternal.



'Cause it's catchy?'



It's radio rock, it's meant to be, but it's just boring hooks that grow tired after the first time of hearing.



'Cause they changed their sound?'



They changed their sound on Sempiternal. It was a big improvement. This is changing your sound to boring kerrangcore radio rock.



'Cause it's actually better written than Sempiternal? That album had the most oblique, vague lyrics. boring'



Oli is one of the worst lyricists I can think of, none of their lyrics are good.



'Sorry, wake up to the changing times - this album kicks so much ass!'



I'm sorry you like to be pounded by generic teen radio rock.



'I hoped for change and I got it, baby'



We all wanted change. We all got change. This is not the change we wanted.



'Best album of '15'



Just no.

It's very true - my best friend Lanagan used to say that all the time. Very common expression in Europe. Please don't be so ignorant and simple minded when it comes to the outside world.

And what do you mean "just to say that comment?" I just joined today, is that not allowed? Strict people around here - sheesh

Grow up.

'Very common expression in Europe.'



Uhh no it's not. Bring Me The Horizon are English. I am English. Can confirm this is nowhere near common and is a stupid expression at the least.

Dude, I live in the UK. And you're not exactly defending the lyrics there, you're just insulting me.



Just because it *might* be truthful doesn't make it a good lyric. I could make a song just saying factual stuff like the sky is blue (sometimes) but that doesn't make it a good lyric.



It's super cringe worthy and whiney.

Lanagan has been using that expression for years, that is all I will say on the matter. If you don't like an album, don't ambush people for doing so. That's just not cool. And don't act like the only people who like this album are the 5 people who created it. But if that's the case, it's them 5 plus ME. So, it's 6 HEHE.

Gonna get me some That's the Spirit merchandise. Legendary band.

Who the fuck is Lanagan?



Also, you could at least back up why you think these lyrics are so superior

Alongside There Is a Hell..., I feel that Sempiternal was about two or three steps in the right direction for this outfit. While I wouldn't call this a bad record, it's relatively underwhelming and features musical ideas which could've been elaborated on. It also treats the two full-lengths that came before it as afterthoughts when it ought to be the other way around. That's the Spirit could've been worse, and yet it should've been better. A decent (if not desperate) pop rock affair, that's all the offering is, to summarize.



Avalanche is a neat song, by the by.

Based on everything I was going through in my life at the time Sempiternal came out, and based on everything I'm going through now, I can relate more to the lyrics on the new album. I just think they are speaking to the listener on a more persona level. Guess it's subjective, however you want to perceive it.

I just like the new album.

First sensible thing you've said. Like or love this album if you want, it's not a problem, no-one really cares that much. But don't state things objectively when clearly they are a subjective opinion.

By the way anyone who doesn't think this album is well-produced is either crazy or has better ears than I do. I kinda suspect the first tbh
