Sonic Salvation has grown on me too. Still a straightforward ABR song but it's a good fun time

Yes. Such a good year. We should get more good core, Jesus or not, that hasn't been announced too. Norma Jean and Counterparts in particular are due for new ones



Also Cerebral Malfunction has a happy solo and I lol'd after our convo with beardog 😂

Did you do an ABR discog run? What's your ranking and what did you think of this one specifically?

ofc i did! needed to be prepared but i've heard the first 5 endlessly back in the day. i'll do tiers for them since it makes more sense. really dig this one, posted more full thoughts a few pages back.

da best- constellations
excellent- found in far away places, leveler, rescue and restore
really good- messengers, thrill seeker, death below
solid- phantom anthem, guardians

that feels about right to me atm. but like i said before they are so consistent it's hard to rank. changes by the listen!

I think Norma is pretty much going to happen. I swear they've been in talks for awhile or recording for a bit. Could see late Winter something stirring. I want new Zao too

Are their other albums worth checking if I didn't vibe w Leveler? Don't really seek this type of core but ABR objectively has chops

New one is the best thing I've heard from them in a while. Easily beats DB imo

the difference in album art alone accounts for a 0.5 bump I think
