I mean I'm HOPING that he pulls himself out of this mess but I just don't know yet

Hard to say which way it'll swing. Last single was good, if a little too familiar. I'm kind of hoping they loosen up and try some new things. The tech death genre cliches are growing a bit tiresome.

I still spin Spiraling Void every now and again because I personally think it's pretty good. Black Star kinda irked me, though.

Album Rating: 1.5

Spiraling Void is ok, but yeah "irked" is good word for Black Star. I listened to it once and something about it made me never want to listen to it again.

Same

OH MY GOD I actually just listened to the new track and wow he is really trying lol

2 minutes into new track. I feel like I'm just hearing the same old verses, the same lazy scale noodling.

Oh, look, and chord progression and cleans right outta Autotheism.

I'm sure I'll smoke a blunt later and listen on better over-ears and get some enjoyment out of it, but this is j-

ahahahah wait wait. What the fuck is this instrumental break with a horn section and cymbals
haahahahahahh is that a FLUTE?!
holy shit you guys weren't kidding. Oh my god it's still going. I'm typing and it's still going. A flute.

Guys I'm laughing. Is this what Keene wanted? Did he think this sounded badass? Ominous?
Oh, and then the song just ends after that part. What. And this was the single. Imagine those shit deep cuts.

I guess I'll just be content with loving Planetary Duality for what it is. Been waiting to be impressed again by these guys since 2010. Autotheism might just be a hiccup, I thought. Lineup changes? That's OK, it might be hard to fill in for Brewer but- oh, you lost your screamer too? Oh, the whole band quit? Oh, you're on heroin again and scamming fans out of guitar lessons? Maybe the next output will be some masterpiece from a tortured mi-....Repeating old riffs and closing with a flute solo?

Done with Keene. What a weight off my shoulders!

Lmao what Nomos said

Album Rating: 2.0

Yeah I mean I'll listen to it once straight through because I have to but if it's as bad as this then I'm also not giving Keene another shot - seems to be a bit far up his own ass

Album Rating: 4.5

I’ll probably dig lol.

yeah this new track is not gud

It is pretty funny though, so it has merit

Ya know, new single isn't as bad now that I listen later at home with headphones and not one earbud at work.

Dude from Abigail Williams sounds great here. Drums sounding as produced as ever. Keenes Kleenes™ not bugging me anymore I think.

But 3:00-onwards with that Dimmu Borgir wind instrument section was a bit over the top. I think I like the sound, but the song has a strange structure and there's no big or interesting moments.

I just bought the vinyl though because that pink color is sick.
