| 3.5 great | MalConstant | April 1st 20 |
More enjoyable than Phantom Anthem I think, but all in all, another great album from the Amon Amarth of Metalcore.

Another solid ABR record, exactly what I expected from them. Although there are a few interesting parts that you wouldn't expect, like Jake Luhrs singing and such. Pretty naisu. Be hyped

At this point I could write an ABR album in my sleep. This shit is extremely predictable, tame, bland, and mind-numbingly boring.

The band's biggest effort to shake up their discography via an overhaul in their usual nagging overproduced perfected sound, choosing a distorted new look. The final product creates something more organic, gritty, and extremely powerful. This was a success.

ABR delivering one of their most cohesive records and take a more approachable direction compared to their latest release which was a little too wanky for it's own good. Not sure how this will sit in after repeated listens but as of now this is a solid straight forward effort and spiritual successor to Messengers albeit a bit more poppy and overall more forgettable

Good metalcore from a genre veteran. What it lacks in originality it makes up for in polish, and heaviness. Ties that Bind, Defender, and Bloodletter are the albums best.

Ties That Bind and Empty Heaven are top SHELF ABR songs, probably some of their best written songs

August Burns Red take their formula, water it down and slap a silly production on it.

I would say there are some points made in this article that are justified, but at the same time your basically writing off one the most consistent metalcore bands out there, they are right there next to As I Lay Dying when it comes to that scene. Also you must be deaf if you do not hear guitar technique and tone. Lol no bass in the song ? Turn the bass up bud you'll hear it. I feel this album is very close to Constellations maybe not exact but close. Metalcore is metalcore you can only change it so much until it's not. It's like death metal it is what it is. Just sounds like this dude does not care for metal core one bit.

A definite step up from Phantom Anthem, but mostly https://imgflip.com/i/3v8l9x
Empty Heaven slaps and the closer instantly belongs in their top 5

These guys are good at what they do and this is solid as always. However, I wish there would be more variation or changes with their next album.

Nothing too interesting in the context of ABR's discography. Some of the riffs that should've been fun just fell flat due to their rather bland style of production. Breakdowns are pretty cookie-cutter, it feels like I've heard them all before.
