Best since Deconstruction I'd say.

This is way better than Z2 and Epicloud for me. I'd probably second best since decon it's around the same quality. Ghost never really did anything for me. Not sure where the disappoinment is coming from. For me this was a relief because I really didn't care for the last couple releases outside a few songs.

Some of the grooves on here are so awesome tho and Devy's solos are on point!



Stormbending and Secret Sciences are his 2 best tracks for a while.

Failure sounds better in the track listing too, even if it does drag towards the end.

That's true, but this sound was at least fresh for him back when he debuted it with Addicted. This is more of the same, poorly masked through a variety of new tones and filters to give the impression of being something new. It's just tired.

I dunno man, yeah the songs are lacking passion in places but they're well crafted for the most part.



Definitely didn't bore me is what I'm trying to say, unlike some other new Devy records.

I dunno. I'm not going to say this is anywhere near the greatest thing he's ever made, but I really can't find anything that isn't enjoyable on this. I mean yeah it does sound like the same shit he's been making for awhile now, but hey at long as it doesn't blow I'll take it. To me this sounds like a better version of Epicloud.

Epicloud actually has some personality and hooks even if it isn't as well-composed as this. Listen to Kingdom and tell me that isn't better than every song on this

The live version of Kingdom that Devy did for some guitar company is even better.

I don't know anything about composition I just know what my ears like I'm not a musician and yeah the kingdom re-make is insanely good, but it's miles better than anything on epicloud if you want to look at it like that.

Yeah I thought the originals were fine too I'd rather have him dig up some of those demos of his and re-release those instead like ocean machines or some crap
