3.0 gooddidnt ask to be staff, was made staff anyway, then got demoted for not doing staff stuff | December 21st 20

Well this has been a rough ride. Viva Belgrado can certainly deliver a mathy hell, but they also plague their album with lacklustre vocals and some more than questionable musical choices (seriously, what the heck was even "Más Triste Que Shinji Ikari")

This right here is dope as hell. Weird, far-reaching lil post-hardcore gem

3.5 greatBedex | April 27th 20

A weird one that boasts good ideas and a change of direction that I appreciate, but shaky execution in places and a lot of formulaic stuff as well. Generally speaking they softened their sound quite a bit, and while the skramz isn't all gone it certainly is quite scarce, with only sparse harsh singing. The formula on this opus involves prominent, upbeat and fun drums, relatively light and simple instrumentals, and weird La Disputey vocals sung in Spanish that rarely feel like they fit the otherwise cool instrumentals. They sometimes use fun voice effects (2 for instance) that change it up a bit, but that's essentially it. 4 is an actual pop song, chill but not mind-blowing, demonstrating that they went much softer here. In contrast 5 goes back to skramz, and while simple the transition works well - but the track conclusion feels amateur. 6 executes the general album style well, and the last third is just alt rock basically. 7 shows how out of place the vox can be. 9 sounds like the sort of music I jammed end of high school and honestly it's quite cool, even the weird break at min 2, but the finale is way too post-rocky generic. 10 and 11 bump this up a point, 10 offering a midtrack break that I love although it was a weird place to start screaming again, and 11 just offering a grand album closer which finally changes up the vox, bumping the record a point. The sort of album I might revisit the high points of for inspiration, but that won't stay in my library really. 3.5
