Excellent again. Almost lost me at the bridge but the chorus brings it all back perfectly.

The mix (particularly the guitars) on these new songs is so much better than anything on the last album. Really excited to hear the full thing.

"Not as good as the last one but still pretty decent."

uhh I wasn't super into the last one but I absolutely adored this, that chorus gave me chills. my first VOLA album was Applause and I loved the shimmery spaciness of that album, and this seems like a much more cohesive blend of that with their heavier stuff

if the new album has more melodies like this it'll be amazing

Impressed that they manage to create such a fresh but distinct sound for the 3rd time in a row. Really looking forward to the new release, AOADC was awesome.

Fuck yes. Another single that's miles better (imo) from anything on the last album. This sounds more Inmazes to me, but they've become better songwriters too.

"uhh I wasn't super into the last one but I absolutely adored this, that chorus gave me chills."

The chorus was great but...the transition to it felt a little clunky, like the chorus was written for a completely different song. But I'm still digging it and looking forward to this album.

The transition to the chorus is bizarre...

I find the bridge is clunky but the transition from bridge to chorus is fine. Do people mean they don't like the bridge to the chorus?

Yeah the bit where the instruments drop out and then come back in for the first chorus. It's like the song modulates to a different key for the chorus but the key change doesn't feel organic to me, at least not the first time around.

Doesn't bother me personally, they did a similar thing on their debut so it's not really new for their sound I suppose

What a fantastic track. My problem with the first track is that it dragged a little but this was perfect.

How can other djent bands even compete
These guys created a great formula of heavy djent chugs combined with poppy but not cheesy choruses

totally disagree about the transition - 100% worked and transitions back into the main riff wonderfully

repeated listens proves this song to be really fluid, honestly think it's one of their best tracks and that's saying something

also disagree about the transition complaints. imo it builds up and emphasizes the main chorus riff quite well

love the catchiness, love the spacey, love that fat drop

yeah you could say the chorus comes out of a bad transition or you could say it's a perfectly executed hard pivot, and I'm gonna go with the second one

I agree about this being one of their best songs period. The transition to the chorus seems fine to me.

I thought the production on Applause was pretty good but some people had issues with the drums on it, so maybe this one will make everyone happy.
