Not on the same level as HCDR, but next to it.

Needled 24/7 and Hate Crew Deathroll are better than anything off of this

Bodom Blue Moon is one hell of a song, though.

Seems like they're back to form, but I just don't listen to these guys anymore.

One Bottle and a Knee Deep is really really good... this is better than Are You Dead Yet? and it's definitely on level with HCDR. This totally took me by surprise, I expected the album to be terrible.

Honestly, I listened to Transference when they streamed it and wasn't impressed until I heard it with better speakers, and then seeing how high it was rated I had to pick it up and listened to it and realized that yeah this is a really good album.

Transference is sort of a grower. They could've chosen a punchier track as a single, but it's ok.

Thus far, Halo of Blood is still my favorite track. In my opinion, this sounds like HCDR meets AYDY with a big Dissection influence. Pretty awesome.



Also, I'm definitely not getting an old school In Flames vibe on "Damaged Beyond Repair." Maybe the vocal fry in the beginning, but that's it.

That's because it's "Dead Man's Hand on You" that sounds like old In Flames, not the song you mentioned.



After listening to Sleeping in my Car 10 more times and then going through their cover album twice, Sleeping in my Car is definitely their best cover to date. Roope fucking killed it too.

sweet. I think you meant "harkens" instead of "reckons" though.

Whoops, yeah, I meant "Dead Man's Hand on You." Still doesn't really sound like old In Flames.

Just because it doesn't sound just like In Flames doesn't mean it's not one of the best tracks on the album. Probably second to All Twisted.

I'm really surprised at how well this turned out. However, I never heard the last album because I assumed it was as bad as Blooddrunk. I heard it's only slightly better which didn't give me the idea to look into it but man this is back on track.

The opening lead in Waste of Skin makes me feel all nostalgic for old Bodom.

This is so reminiscent of older COB. Really glad they pulled it back together for this one.
