4.0 excellentMeinKrahft | May 11th 21

Music-wise, this sounds fucking superb. A little lacking in hooks, but I hear enough to keep me happy. Lyrically and conceptually? Very brave, and truthful. Don't be afraid of politics. Politics govern every aspect of modern life, it's good to voice an opinion of that. The cover will make this album a hot seller from Yemen to Pakistan ;)

4.5 superbBrushedRed | June 22nd 21

Why do civil rights and not fucking killing human beings always equal politics? I swear, that shitty take makes me sick. As for the album itself, it is a beautiful and triumphant statement on being true to yourself. It is bold, it is smart, and it is transcendent as fuck. Fantastic in every sense of the word.

2.5 averagePortalofPerfection | May 6th 21

Do I want politics shoved into my face
like this with music? No, I really
don't.rIs Violet Cold an extremely
talented artist who makes awesome
metal? Yes, he really is.rDefinitely
better that Noir Kid.

Edit: few more listens, this is
actually pretty boring.

2.5 averageGary STAFF | June 7th 21

This is definitely a post-metal album. Personally this really bores me, and perhaps the "hype" didn't help me enjoying this, since I've seen this cover pretty much everywhere. Ye-ye, brave and whatnot, but sadly this is just another post-metal album which is could be a good only as background noise.

2.5 averageSuzyC | May 10th 21

The first time Emin has disappointed me. It all sounds nice, but it lacks the hooks (so far) of his other albums. Hopefully this will grow on me.
