I read this review and thought of ‘End’ then checked the recommended so clearly a great review. Will check this once Rolo Tomassi finishes playing.

It’s been a while since I heard a vocalist who made me think they’re genuinely disturbed, good work.

this is definitely their best but it leaves the same effect as everything else they've done for me

Definitely their best so far but they sacrifice so much new dynamism for chugs and breakdowns that have always felt like a crutch in their songwriting for me. I know that they're a toughguy/beatdown band, but who cares. Like they'll be doing a metallic, fast, or atmospheric part that I love and then DJUN DJUN DJUNDJUNDJUN DJUN DJUN DJUNDJUNDJUN. It's hard to forget they're always writing for the pit jocks to some degree. Can't even afford to blue-ball them for ONE song and do something all the way different. Step your pussy up and reach for the stars as musicians, fam.

i feel the same, but then i'm like it's knocked loose, i shouldn't expect anything less.



it gets downright silly tho when an entire song sounds like a breakdown and then they slow things up for another breakdown within a breakdown

'Like they'll be doing a metallic, fast, or atmospheric part that I love and then DJUN DJUN DJUNDJUNDJUN DJUN DJUN DJUNDJUNDJUN.'

Hmm, to me that makes this interesting. Instead of getting one or the other, they've blended both elements pretty damn impressively here. Don't get me wrong, I usually hate that shit when it's overdone, but here it works.

'It's hard to forget they're always writing for the pit jocks to some degree.'

Although I guess this context is completely lost on me, maybe not visualising 'pit jocks' whilst jamming helps appreciate it for what it is, idk.

@Demon: Tbh breakdowns like these have lost a ton of their appeal to me on an aesthetic level cause SO. MANY. BANDS. I listened to in the 2000s were utilizing the same tools in their songs. Look at my pie chart, hardcore has been my shit since I was 14. I'm 26. The listening appeal for parts like that is simply less than their moshing appeal for me and genre-wise, it is redundant. When I listen to shit like Converge or Botch or Gaza, I hear metalcore with interesting songwriting that incorporates groove riffs/breakdowns but absolutely doesn't depend on them or even do them every song. I think there are more interesting ways to be heavy than that. I like stuff like Jesus Piece, but don't LOVE them for the same reasons.

'I hear metalcore with interesting songwriting that incorporates groove riffs/breakdowns but absolutely doesn't depend on them'

The breakdowns don't appear to be used as a song-writing crux here, I feel they're incorporated pretty well - they're aesthetic value is up for debate I guess, because sometimes I don't want to hear them either. I certainly wouldn't listen to this for it's moshing appeal though, I imagine you could find better albums for such a thing if you were that way inclined anyway.

If an album was JUST a moshing album, I doubt it would work well as music at all at this point in my life. This album's cool, just less than it could be imo. I hope they go in an even more metallic direction atm.

this is kind of fun at its best and boring at its more typical worst. doesn’t sound like Vein much but vocalist sounds like diet vein vocalist. they sounded exactly the same live and we’re kind of boring then too

if i wanna listen to a modern band play nothing but breakdowns at this point in my life i’d prob just listen to End
