10.17.23 | Somehow this is a list that is completely up my alley.
I think you have most everything in the right order but 7 is definitely 4, and yes, 4-6 are interchangeable. |

10.17.23 | Why is Tide at the bottom? Feel like it's way better than Lanterns. This band makes me nostalgic. Snowcapped will always take me right back to 2004 |

Agreed with 7 being 4 for me as well. And I’d also have 3 at 1 or 2 (depends on the day) |
artiswar
10.17.23 | 3 is a really weird one cause it makes me deeply cringe but I also really like some of the songs. It's a guilty pleasure I guess |
gschwen
10.17.23 | I always appreciated that they went out their way to progress their sound from nu-metal to metalcore to stay relevant-- a lot of their contemporaries did not. |
artiswar
10.17.23 | Kenai, Destroy The Map, Installing, and Cure are absolute legendary nu-metal classics that most people don't even remember.
But I 'member fam. |
IsisScript80
10.17.23 | Only heard the first three, but out of those 'Bitterness the Star' is definitely my favourite. Really good album.
Became diminishing returns when they transitioned more to then-fashionable metalcore. |
artiswar
10.17.23 | yeah diminishing returns is a really great summary of this band unfortunately |

10.17.23 | To answer everyone, I remember listening to 7, and just finding it very stale. It's not bad but it lacks the punch of the albums that came after it for me.
First two albums are brilliant, especially Snow. Gotta check that out again soon now that I think about it.
"Cure Eclipse" is SO good. Dat riff.
Diminishing returns isn't far off. I wish they'd go back to their earlier sound, but if I'm craving metalcore, this and/or KSE is who I turn to. |

10.17.23 | super underrated band |
MoM
10.17.23 | ^ agreed! Thinking about it, i don’t really remember much of 7 besides Back Harlow Road, but i love that one |
artiswar
10.17.23 | Tide is a solid album, go revisit it. Not sure why it's last place lol |

10.18.23 | 1 and 7 are my two favorites |
Emim
10.18.23 | 1 is so good |
artiswar
10.18.23 | I will never get tired of Kenai, that shit gets me going. Also that last breakdown in Installing goes dummy hard |
Spec
10.18.23 | Heard like one album from these guys and it was painfully mediocre. |
Kompys2000
10.18.23 | 2 is 1
LACE ME UP, LACE ME UUUUUUUUP |
artiswar
10.18.23 | GET THE FUCK OUT STAY THE FUCK OUT. IT MAKES ME SICK (I'm alright) |
