Fam, I don't hear how it at all outclasses Ride Majestic at all
Or does Sput hate it now and I missed the transition

It's a good album, I think. The problem is that the Living Infinite sound has run its course and they've hit the point of diminishing returns, if they didn't already with the last album. They would benefit from shaking things up a little.

you didn't miss anything, marsbro
considering the new album's free-falling average rating, I doubt it'd even settle at the same figure as Verkligheten

My man I promise Ride Majestic is better than a 2.5, it riffs for days, don't make me cry on a Friday.

"Death in General" is the sound they want to play nowadays, but they don't come close to replicating what made that song work.
The album as a whole is an extension of the Living Infinite sound, although it focuses more on straightforward assaults/riffage than the more diverse cuts of Infinite. Means it's not AS good, but still an incredible experience with a ton of energy.

I think Arte nailed it with diminishing returns. They can't keep doing the same sound forever if they don't step up their songwriting game.
What made TLI work is variety. The new one sounds like the result of the elements they've used before getting thrown into the mixer for the fuck's sake of it, and consequently, there aren't any memorable or identifiable songs. It makes me wish they continued to explore the sound present on Verkligheten because it seemed like a promising new direction.

I guess that's why TRM works for me, since it was more of a fine-tuning of TLI, if not its equal. But now they're just hitting the copy/paste button without the same level of energy/enthusiasm.

If I remember correctly, the first 4 or so songs on TRM were some of the best they've ever written, but the second half of the album fell completely flat. But like I said, been a while since I listened to it.

Damn, some lovely cuts off the second half. "Aspire Angelic" and "Whirl of Pain" for sure.

I also liked the Whisp of the Atlantic title track. I think prog soilwork could've worked as well.
