Somehow, I feel that now is the right time to jam this record more often. Feels kinda wintry to me.

^^Agreed, it also works again Christmas moroseness.

"Savage Days" has a latent Everything But The Girl vibe at the chorus.

Might be another 5 from these guys



Dunno what to even say about the consistency and quality of each album, it's getting pretty ridiculous at this point

I am addicted to Salvation.



I think this is amazing but the track order doesnt help it as this is quite front loaded.Salvation while amazing is also placed quite strangely for the track thats the dominant talking piece and the albums huge epic, it should have been the closing track imo,.Break up the singles so its not just singles back to back then new stuff material. Obsidian flowsa bit better

DUDE, YES!! i had the exact same thought when i was commenting on here again and relistening. Salvation as the closer would've been perfect. I absolutely love The Precipice as well, and think it works very well for the closer, but Salvation would've been perfect

I still dig "Tyrants Serenade" the most, I guess.

think that's Nick's favorite one too. the last 2 records have just been so monumental, love that they brought back a lot of the FDUDUU juice to this one, this is another top 5 PL record quite comfortably, and given their illustrious career, that's quiten accomplishment

Lay A Wreath Upon The World goes fucking hard, most inspired song they had between the last three albums
