Ur projecting, this is a record for god-fearing Christians



Not my favorite Converge, but the opener and Dead are slept on

The Saddest Day is one of the greatest album openers in any genre.

TIL there's a japanese noun that essentially wraps this album's title image/figure into a single word + can be used verbally in times of cope

You never loved me

now I cannot lie down in that bed

I cannot lie down in all of those old fears

I haven't slept, singe the colors from my glances

if I was bleeding, would you tell me?

if I was speaking, would you hear me?

you asked for everything but never loved

if I was praying, would you kill me?

You never loved me

It’s not my favorite song here but the main riff on Color Me Blood Red is one of the filthiest things I’ve ever heard.



It’s weird they don’t consider this a full album, I get that without the live tracks it would run pretty short, but to me at least this easily clears WFCC, and is miles ahead of Halo. It’s kind of a mindfuck how much they improved in just a year or two. Halo is fine but this album is a watershed moment for the genre imo. To me it’s one of the most important hardcore records of the 90’s

Yup, this album still rules dick. I've never listened to the original, though, just the 2005 remastered version. "Albatross" might be the weakest track, but thankfully one of the shortest here.



"Saddest Day", "Farewell Note...", "Dead" and "Foresaken" rip. I also really like the live version of "Antithesis".
