The music industry is actively promoting AI "artists" and they are all over streaming.

Country and pop, sure. No heavy artists from the punk or metal scene are AI creations, as far as I am aware.

I can wait until 11 tbh but them being compared to Lamb of God does have me a lil worried

Album Rating: 5.0

Used a VPN and the song is available to hear on youtube. I hear what the reddit user meant about sounding like a Lamb of God riff at some parts but it's way more intense/chaotic/superior to anything LoG has done. It's closer to Slayer vibes, which is normal for Converge. I approve, but also need to hear it 5 more times to grasp what it was.

Okay that makes me feel a little better



Still kinda bummed that the leak seems true and the record is probably only around 31 mins… by far the shortest LP they’ve ever made



im PRAYING that they drop all of the b sides if they actually have like twice as many songs written than what’s on the record

“As for the album as a whole, the tracklist aims to be all of their experience coming together more clearly than ever before. A press release shares that it will not feature any special guests nor any “studio trickery”, but rather capture the raw, unadulterated force that the band capture together when in the studio.”



hoping that means the production sounds a little closer to AWLWLB, they said similar shit pre release on that one and it ended up being the best sounding album Kurt ever produced imo… Dusk still sounds great but man the drums hit like a fuckin canon on All We Love

I'd say it sounds like the thrashier songs on Dusk/Beautiful Ruin.



You Fail Me is only 35 minutes, so 31 isn't too short if you consider there won't be an intro and probably no acoustic track. If the leak is true, all the longer songs are placed at the end. I read they recorded around 17 songs, so it seems like they're holding at least 7 back.

Album Rating: 4.5

The new song is very solid; I wouldn't say it is anything refreshing like Eve, but a good Converge-by-the-numbers kind of a song. I'd agree with Xing that it def has Beautiful Ruin/Tender Abuse tinge.

Calls Redditors idiots, proceeds to link to Reddit to prove me wrong. The irony made me lol.



Does this primarily seem to be a Spotify thing? Admittedly I haven't used any form of streaming in years, so I guess I'm out of the loop on that one. Old man yells at clouds.

I mean spend any amount of time on that site and tell me differently. It is useful tho



I'm only on Spotify so I can't speak for the others. I've seen them pushed on yt and insta too

Alright 3 hours and change… I did get that youtube music video pulled up before they made it private but I didn’t want hear the first proper converge song in almost a fuckin decade thru a shitty phone speaker at work



I’m guessing that leak was pretty much spot on then. They got the first single date and artwork right. I’m gonna have to have godly levels of self control to not jam the second single until release… I hate when bands make the last song a single



So glad I don’t have to work tomorrow, def staying up to listen to it and im really hoping pre orders go live then too
