| 4.0 excellent | Snide | October 27th 16 |
A good improvement from "Unconditional", more riffs, better vocals, and a little experimentation
here and there. Album is a lot more consistent, and the production has taken a huge step up.
Edit: Kenbo, I do dig this, this album kicks ass.

A solid album instrumentally and vocally but Matty is definitely out of ideas for the lyrics

This band continues their descent into shittiness with another shitty album with the same shitty lyrics from the last 2 albums. Snide is prolly loving it.

MMF seem to be having an identity crisis whether they know it or not. I get why from their perspective they feel like they have to write to the stereotypical "struggling teen girl" since that's most of who comes out to shows and talks to them about their struggles. It would probably shape my music too and make me feel like I had to turn what I was doing into a Ministry to help them. That and the fact that Matty sees himself as "the voice of a generation" lol. What's ironic is that it was the honest songs on Sleepwalking and the Hollow that those typical struggling teen girls (we all too)related with in the first place because it was honest! They weren't made up stories written to sound relatable. I literally can't count how many times I've sat in my car, weeping while belting "these bones are only temporary, we are not alone, the destination lies ahead and we are not alone" from "The Redeemed" on the Hollow. Love that song so much. What I'm trying to say is....when you make honest music about things that actually happened from your own lives something special happens. These songs are ok...better than Unconditional, but just feel the same as songs I hear on most Contemporary Christian radio: manufactured for a specific audience. No life. No real experiences. Good intentions but feels empty. Just ok.

Some of the most mind-numbingly boring/cliche/bad lyrics you can find, uninspired vocals, predictable song structures, and guitar work that, while technically decent, hasn't evolved at all from their earlier work. Woof.

This album has the exact same cover art as Crown the Empire's new LP, only worse.

On this new record MMF continue their trend of being another painfully mediocre group in a consistently waning genre. Not an original thought throughout it's entire 50 minute runtime and the lyrics are abysmal as expected. A handful of well executed guitar licks and catchy hooks aren't enough to save this from being a grueling listen.
