I'm actually kind of impressed by this track. It's not gonna change anyone's mind about the band, but it kind of harkens back to their older albums and has a darker, more reserved mood than most of the stuff on their last few records. Sort of a nice nod to long time fans, and it's catchy and dumb fun as always

Nothing unexpected but still fun tbh. Still making stuff that I feel could entice young nerds into heavier music like they did for me in high school and that's dope

Eh it still doesn't touch Avenger or Crusher and the lower quality production serves the tone of those albums than a well produced sound like here
