IMO this band is the top of metalcore (not the converge and botch kind of metalcore). They are better than Architects, Bullet, A Day To Remember, Killswitch and all those kind of bands. I feel like Converge/TDEP/Botch/ETID are a different kind of metalcore, which I guess you might understand

"BTW, if you are going to give an album a full score (which is almost impossible for even the best of the best to achieve)then by god I hope that it is a genre defining album that reinvites something in the formula or at the very least is a top example of the genre's finest moments."



Music doesn't always have to be "genre defining" or "ground breaking" to receive a perfect score.

"No, music is not subjective. It's either good or it's bad. Not meaning "good" as-in, to your ears, but as in actually well composed and technically sound etc. "



all a music review is is the personal opinion of the reviewer. it's always gonna be subjective and music/art is always going to be purely subjective.



im just so fucking sick of sach and everyone being so butthurt that people like this, and vice versa I suppose for like toondude and the people that love this.

@Gameofmetal Agreed. I think Thrillseeker is by far this band's best album, yet it's one of their lowest scoring albums on this site. It all comes down to personal taste

People are dumb tbh.

Just so we can get away from this subject, what bands should I listen to if I wanted to get into metalcore?
