All the other tracks sound identical to the original version as far as I can tell, it's just a re-release with a the new version of Courtney as a bonus track.

Yeah the redux isn't much different than the og at all really. Only difference I could make out were the drums being mixed slightly clearer.



Think they did it mostly as a means of putting out a reprint. Now that their music is gonna be distributed through an American record label this is their way of getting it out to us Americans (though I'm a bum and paid for overseas shipping for the og version lul)

Using this thread to show love to some of the songs on Prologue too because Vague and Disposable Care are both TOO fucking good to never be mentioned

I'm still jamming their old songs too. Adaptive Taste is a forgotten banger.

the early songs seemed to have hit-or-miss mixing (sometimes the vocals would be too low in particular) but this shit hits like a TRUCK

Is it too early to compare this to trailblazers like The Shape of Punk to Come?

Maybe. But fuck it. This could be to this generation what that was back then.

what the shit are you talking about now

Album Rating: 5.0

Shape of Punk to Come.

Full Collapse.

Fake History.

Rouge Carpet Disaster.

one heap of inflated self-important jank, one zeitgeist kingpin and two nostalgia classics what is this list
fwiw this is probably the best album of the four end-to-end but i do not get the play here

Album Rating: 5.0

Landmark albums in the history of Post-Hardcore. RCD could very well be as big a landmark as those three. I get this isn't your usual bag but try to keep up here

um as much as this album rekindles a lot of what was great about 2nd wave phxc, it's so unapologetically derivative that idk if it's fair to either it or the bands it pays homage to to pencil in the same kind of legacy within a year of its release
+ posting a chronological list of genre landmarks with Refused as the first entry v much tickles me

Give it some time. If it's not this album it could be the next one they do if they stay creative.

I mean, I'd lap up a part 2 of this record, but it doesn't make it any less tenuous to present it as a future genre icon when everything about this band's style is looking backwards

Album Rating: 5.0

The feel, the energy, writing, etc. all feels fresh while paying tribute to the past and could very well be inspiring to a new generation of fans and musicians in this genre. I love this album. Maybe it IS a bit too early, but I feel like it's going to get heralded the same way fans heralded Define the Great Line and Full Collapse in the 2000s.
