That's awesome! Any of these should sound massive live.

yeah, I can definitely get behind this one.



Requires further inspection of course, but thus far it seems well balanced between not pandering to obvious tropes, yet isn’t overly obtuse either. Production rules.

The engineering work on this album is phenomenal. It’s detailed but spontaneous sounding. Early days, but so far this is my favourite album of theirs and one of the best releases I’ve heard this year.

Yup, yup. This is topping Dvne's release earlier this year for me, which was my favorite release so far.



Production work is immaculate.

Yah I might bump my rating with more spins, this is nearly certainly the best metal album I've heard so far this year

I’m willing to say it’s metal AOTY so far, after only one spin (bold?!)



new Scarcity in early July has a shot of usurping it

It might be my favorite of the year too. Defeated Sanity and Spectral Lore will both be contenders as well

I'm glad this got to the top 5 trending spot, don't get me wrong, but I still feel sputnik is sleeping out big time on this. This band and Old Man Gloom are relatively still hidden gems imo

upgrading this to a 3.5 on second listen.

The guitar solos on track 2 are brilliant

Track 3 has massively grown on me

Still doesn't compare to ISIS output tho

Admittedly like this better than any one Isis album lol. (And for the record I do really dig OCEANIC and PANOPTICON.)
