like Sound Awake they have a nice mix of heavy/soft sections but the heavy sections sound like they're gonna hit harder than Sound Awake.

Album Rating: 3.5

Kenny's vocals on Alpha Omega get me every time. "When the sun rises hiiIIIiiiiIIIiiIIIIghhh..."

No deadman or change level songs though, save sky machine maybe

If it never sets in for you it won't start to age.

You can't be tired of it if you never got it. I assumed the album never clicked for you in the first place?

To each his own ofc.

Album Rating: 3.0

just because you don't like something doesn't mean you don't 'get it'



i get it... this is mediocre

Album Rating: 4.5

lol maybe that's why I like them so much, I'm the biggest Chevelle fan but never made that connection before I guess

Album Rating: 2.0

There isn't really a connection to make there imo, maybe with the vocals every now and again but even that is a huge stretch.

Album Rating: 4.5

I wish these guys would come to Toronto, I've never seen them in concert so can't really weigh in on how they sound live

Album Rating: 4.0

If Chevelle have any albums as good as Sound Awake then i'll have to check them out.



With Birds of Tokyo's new album out (btw, it's awesome. Check it out.) and their tour nearly finished hopefully Kenny will be back with the Karnivool lads soon recording the new album.

They promised an album and U.S. tour in 2017.

Yeah, can't wait to hear studio versions of 'All It Takes', 'Aozora', 'Animation' and 'Reanimation'. Should be an amazing album.

Aozora is so fuckin' good.

Album Rating: 4.5

I want...so badly...=[

Aozora is an awesome song. It has that dirtyness and dissonance of the Asymmetry songs but has a ridiculously awesome and catchy chorus. I'm guessing they'll change the name to 'The Great Escape'.



In terms of rating the new songs from best to worst -



1. Reanimation - so beautiful and epic. Will be on that top COTE/New Day/Deadman/Sky Machine/Aeons tier of their best songs.



2 - All It Takes - Like a beefed up Goliath. Heavy as fuck and was ridiculously awesome live.



3 - Aozora - Like i said before it's like a really catchy Asymmetry song. Kind of like a mixture of We Are and The Last Few but better than both of those songs.



4 - Simple and catchy. Will be the 'All I Know' of the new album. Still a really good song.

Album Rating: 4.0

Judd's drumming on here is fucking nuts

Album Rating: 3.5

Once I switch Aeons and t/t in the tracklist the album flows so much better for me.



@unforgiven89 that's a good breakdown of the new songs. I like how everything is sounding so far.

Album Rating: 4.0

Really? I think it works absolutely fine, but I'll give that a bash. Who knows, I might like your way more ^ ^

Probably listen to this more than Sound Awake nowadays. What an album.

Album Rating: 3.5

Sound Awake still takes the cake for me, but their albums can hardly be compared. They all bring a different feel, and I find myself going back to this one more lately as well.

"Sound Awake still takes the cake for me, but their albums can hardly be compared"





agree. though i've tried coming back to this one a few times to see if it clicks but it hasn't yet.
