This album has some surprisingly stupid and unpoetic lyrics

[2] I believe it's this album's greatest weakness. The music and vocal melodies are top notch and very moving, but those lyrics are hard to appreciate.

the only cringey lyrics on this for me are on Ghost Of The Sun where it almost feels like I'm listening to One Step Closer by Linking Park. Criminals is also awkward as fuck. Album is really fucking good though.

doesn't help either that he hits that line about 39 times in song.



seriously though, Sleeper, Complicty, and Wealth rule so hard. Inside The City Of Glass is one of the most underrated closers ever, that track is fucking apocalyptic.

The only tracks I find myself coming back to are the opener and three closing songs. Otherwise it just mushes together like a lukewarm milkshake.

Yeah some of the lyrics can get cringe

It's just that imo, if we're talking from a purely sonic level, the melodies and such are probably the most haunting Katatonia has produced in their "later" run

Occasional questionable lyrics aside, there are some total bangers on here

Vocal performance is top notch too
