| 3.5 great | Bedex | September 28th 24 | Sorry dede, I think it do be a bit of a gloubiboulga. This is a very frustrating experience. The band can graft exquisite progskramz hopeful sadness, and some moments are especially beautiful. I mean, although I'm not completely on board with some of the vox, 1 and 2 are some excellent tracks. Sadly, this genre rapidly decreases in prevalence, to only come back in glimpses, e.g. on the intro to 6 or 11, and the band increasingly focuses on a corey, skramzey, blackgazey mix that isn't bad per se, but to my taste really feels like a step down from the earlier delicateness. If it was in a vacuum perhaps I'd like it more, but with the State Faultsy post skramz initial set up, I struggled to enjoy when the band went dark and gloomy on 3 or 4, or Daughtery on 8, or shrieky on 9. The intro to 11 feels like a breath of fresh air again, but is short lived. I don't mind genre variety within a record, but the way it progresses doesn't sit right with my personal taste. Immense potential for some grandiose records in the future, however. 3.6

| 3.8 excellent | Erwann S. EMERITUS | December 18th 23 | Wide-ranging skramz is always a big yes in my heart. This one trades indie rock interludes, blackgaze catharsis, mathcore start-and-stop riffs, midwest emo lead vocals, gaze soundscapes, and even some post-hardcore and metalcore sensibilities. This could have been a huge gloubiboulga, but the integration of their different influences works wonders here.
