have to agree i found this one pretty boring, no where near as intense as the first album. data is ok but can see the samples getting annoying over time. tracks 1,3,4 all felt like background music. hopefully they bounce back on the next one

Album Rating: 4.3

I get why people might be bored by this but I fucking love it. Amazing stuff. Up there with the best I've heard this year.

Hype to hear it!

Album Rating: 4.5

I'm not sure which I like better. The first one perfectly blends symphonic elements with post rock, but this one has some really cool moments of exploration and experimentation. Both are incredible albums though.

Album Rating: 4.3

I love the glitchy, noisy parts of this album. So many epic moments here.

Album Rating: 4.5

This album is loud as hell. I had to turn down my headphones a few times on the closing track because of how blown out it is. I love it, but it's intense.

Album Rating: 5.0

I mean, shit, this is better than the machine is burning… wtf am I supposed to rate this thing??

Album Rating: 4.5

After 1st listen I don't know if I'd rank it higher than 'the machine is burning...' but this is pretty incredible in its own right. Thought it didn't start as strong, but after "Data" it became incredible moment after incredible moment.



Gonna listen to it some more in the next few days.



Do they usually tour? This should be an awesome concert to go to.



Edit: yeah, after listening to it a lot lately I think this is really better than "The Machine Is Burning...". Incredible, emotional and moving stuff here.

Holy shit; this KEXP performance is incredible. The production is top notch. This is incredibly impactful.

Gotta be honest. Struggled a little bit with the debut. Got a feeling I get it this time

Not on spotify. Die BRUIT

Saw these guys opening for Alcest yesterday and they sounded MASSIVE

Album Rating: 4.3

Damn, sounds awesome.

Hawks, I know you like both Alcest and Dimmu Borgir, as I do.

Just to let you know, Neige said in a french interview that Dimmu was the "McDonald of black metal". I've had a bit of a beef with the guy ever since lol

Album Rating: 4.3

I love both of them indeed. Dimmu friggin kicks so much ass.
