It's decent

4.7/10

wow, I thought this was going to be shit. I was completely correct.

Not terrible, but I really don't like the guitar tones and the clean vocals are really nasally and something I've never really enjoyed about these guys. Gonna pass on this.

And super generic "inspirational" metalcore lyrics cliche as well.

Ooh that was yucky. Pretty disappointing

It's okay.

Still a better christian metalcore band than For Today

Horrible lyric video, could have been ripped straight off of challenger (or probably made by taking parts of each song)

wow this sounds literall ylike the album lol

i wonder what goes through the heads of people as they release the same album over and over. I refuse to believe they can't hear how samey it all sounds.

Vocals are pretty good. Instrumentals pretty lame as usual. if this band decided they wanted to actually write some riffs instead of shitty breakdowns all the time, I'd like them a lot.

i can't hear anything but china, pedals, and his vocals.

TENEESEEE

All I hear is the bass drum

Everything after the Hollow has been generic "clean-harsh-clean-harsh-synth-breakdown-clean, etc".....
These guys actually were unique at one point but now they are Rise Records poster-band. Song is from
Challenger 2.0 apparently. I cry.

seriously, what the fuck is up with that production

lol go away

This is painfully average

So boring, solid vocals, but everything else is bad, including the lyrics.

xpaincakex, I think you mean The Hollow 3.0

seriously though, if they switched producers they would sound much better and more fresh. I'm just sick of this same sound over and over again…it's like they can't break out of this little box they've created.

And the bass kick sounds like a transformer tapdancing.

ew

Wait a band signed to rise is unoriginal ?? Wow weird would of never guessed

boring

Guitars sound so digital and there is so much drum in the mix.
Challenger pt.2 which was a better version of the one before it.
Band needs to switch it up.

I've said this before, they need to go back to their Sleepwalking sound.

Just sounds like Challenger again, man this is getting old. Really wish they could go back to their old sound like The Hollow it was much better in my opinion than these new albums.

meh, song is painfully boring and i like "Challenger". That album was great,hope the rest of this album is better.

lyrics are just so unbelievably similar to those on challenger.

"Everything after the Hollow has been generic "clean-harsh-clean-harsh-synth-breakdown-clean, etc".....

This.

yeah, fuck this band

I used to really like these guys. Their first EP and LP are their best work. The Hollow was also pretty good. Challenger just showed the direction they were heading and it's this crap.

........zzzzzzzz.....

What happened to these guys? *shakes fist at sky*

"And the bass kick sounds like a transformer tapdancing."

Hahahaha

Song was ok. Sounds like Memphis but nothing impressive. Maybe it will grow with the album?

Oh cool. It's a cover of one of their other songs.

miss when they were southern hardcore

y no news article on the new of machines song xD

The song is better when you don't look at the terrible artwork.

vocals are stronger but those lyrics are still generic shit.

Good vocals, everything else makes me yawn violently. Also yeah even if the guitars aren't doing much they shouldn't be that dead in the mix.

"Yawn violently"

I want to see this

"And the bass kick sounds like a transformer tapdancing."


lmao perfect imagery.

"Yawn violently"

I want to see this [2]

Why does Rise fuck with every fucking band they have? The Hollow was brilliant, and now this shit?
