Wait, so you're telling me THIS is the artwork that pushed the album back almost a year and half from its original release of November 2019?

And don't even get me started on the single.

So they announce this but nothing about the shitty bassist being a predator, very cool by the band

That ending was kind of neat actually. Otherwise hard pass and those tempo changes for the chorus straight up do not work at all lol. Horrible execution.
Also am I the only one who thinks this mix sounds like absolute garbage?

Yeah, this mix is garbo. Not a fan at all.

Resentment and Mindreader were okay, if the album sounds more like those two tracks it might be a 3.

I honestly don't mind the song, but I agree that it's pretty shady of them not to do anything about Josh.

^ lol that's what it reminded me of, def sum 41 in there.

Starts and ends okay but the "heavy" part is pure vom, couldn't have composed a more generic one even if they tried

ive never liked this band too much aside from 1 or 2 songs (dead & buried comes to mind, something about wax larry) but this is kinda cool. I like the ending a lot. and the beginning has a really cool psychedelic vibe.

I'll just say I'd never ditch my friends about sexual misconduct allegations until anything is confirmed. So, good on them on keeping that stuff private.

Song sucks tho.

Yeah this track is kinda strange to say the least. Tried to do something new and interesting (for them) and just kinda fall flat. Weird choice for an opener to.

I really like the artwork though (if that is indeed the artwork for the album).

I can already tell that "Viva La Mexico" will be this band's horrible attempt at latin rock and I'm ready for it. All of the marketing they've put around this album revolves around its sound being 'different.' Every attempt at a new style here has just been a miss, though. I'm not looking forward to this record.

Feel like the song would have been better had they just went to a half time feel for the heavy riff as opposed to playing it in an entirely different/slower tempo, really kills the momentum

That tracklist looks especially obnoxious, but atleast their dumb band name somehow even fits the concept of the album, afaics.

I can’t get over how bad this song is. And it’s the opener. What a head scratcher.

To think this is the same band that wrote City of Ocala

yeah this isn't even bad in a "new style bad" type way or anything... it's an objectively bad record

like i'm honestly surprised that a band as well oiled and seasoned as adtr put out something as badly executed as this. they've had such a distinct sound and high level of execution for so many years that it's kinda jarring to hear them sound like they've completely forgot what they are doing lol. mixing is just straight up terrible too

To be fair, my favorite ADTR song is called 'you be tails ill be sonic' so I'm pretty sure awful track lists is a core identity of this band

Just because it’s trying something different doesn’t give it any brownie points. It sounds disjointed and the production is baddd.

It's not as awful as some people make it out to be but it's pretty bad. Disjointed and over produced. The verses are weird and the breakdown is weak af.

legitimately disappointed with this track.
a discomforting lack of generally good song writing ideas and half-hearted execution.
Idk what to make of it given this is the opener.

lastly, this retails for 20€ (23$) CD ahahahah like wtf CD's are 10-15 at most. Vinyl is 30€ for a single vinyl, again that's usually the price for a double record.

Maybe i'm reading too much into it but if "you're welcome" refers to them making another album is them doing us a favour and therefore we should be thankful...

idk the terrible single and the money grab would confirm this theory. come on this song is inexcusable. it just should not exist it's just so bad
