"Invent Animate peaked at Stillworld but even at their peak they where nothing more than a sadboi version if old Northlane"

They kinda do/did rip a lot of their heavy from old Northlane though haha. But they also do their own thing for sure, especially with leads.
I avoided lurking here until I'd heard the EP a few times first. As If is probably their best Marcus track. Absolute banger. He doesn't force his vocals so much, the guitars at 1:30 are insane, the breakdown is great, and that outro callback to Everchanger is the best thing they've done in a while. That's the shit that's like crack for me

always found it kinda funny listening to old interviews of them where they talk about northlane being such a big comparison point bc its not particularly intentional on ia's part as much as just what other people heard in ben's harshes lol

Being influenced by Northlane =/= being a clone of Northlane, dumbass.

ia have always been better than nl honestly. like obviously theyre better now since everything post adrian is terrible but even when comparing their peaks the ben albums > the adrian albums tbh

and also, the only comparison that I see here to old Northlane with the new EP is some of the proggier riffs, but even then it's very much IA-specific kinda prog and tons of ambiance throughout

No. I mean OG Northlane vs. IA is close in quality and probably comes down to preference, but I can't agree everything post Adrian is terrible

Marcus gets almost no credit from the boys but the dude can really bring it live. Agreed though that post Singularity Northlane is nothing special.
IA's guitar work is tighter and more complex than Northlane ever was, so I might have to give them the edge. But as far as vox go Adrian is king

IA’s guitar work is tighter and more complex than Northlane ever was (222222222)
This is the main thing I always notice. Northlane have way less of those complex leads that crest the melodic atmosphere and are choppier.

The disparity of quality between IA and Northlane is so significant that even comparing the two is a complete joke.

Marcus is awesome and I'm glad these guys found a replacement who's just as good as their OG vocalist
