It's simple: You lose the guy with the Morbid Angel shirt, you lose the riffs.

If only Metallica had known that the St. Anger bucket drum sound fits better with metalcore.

Knocked Loose has often been seen as one of those metalcore and deathcore bands that are more pretentious and overhyped due to their hardcore fans. However, much of the hype for this band is warranted, even from someone like me who has enjoyed their past two albums but wasn't as drawn to them as others have been. The band's third album, "You Won't Go Before You're Supposed To," could go down as one of the most essential metalcore albums of all time. Everything from the production to the playing is top-notch for the metalcore genre, going toe-to-toe with Converge (and, for me, surpassing Converge). The album is brimming with ideas, from the incredibly thick production to the two features from Poppy and Motionless in White. You have to give the band a lot of credit for what they're doing here. Plus, the lyrics resonate deeply for those who understand the themes. I can see a lot of people not checking this out if they're not into this kind of music, but if you're at all into great production, you have to listen because it's incredible.

CANNOT wait for Pikazilla to give another good 2024 album a 1.5

3.8 for sure. Not as memorable as A Different Shade Of Blue IMO.

Highest Praist, this is just (genre) perfection. You could not do this kind of music better: artwork, production, songs, pacing, unique vocals, everything. Everyone should check this out who has love left for aggressive and heavy music. If you want to have only one metalcore-, beatdown-, hardcore with breakdowns- whatever album in your collection, then it should be the new Knocked Loose. This is also Zeitgeist or a very modern and stylish album.

This just keeps getting better with each listen. Only song that doesn?t quite work for me is Slaughterhouse 2.

Growing on me with every listen. Album is unrelenting and the production is so good.

solid fun beatdown junz with heavy ass breakdowns that really pop with a nice crunchy guitar tone but very predictable and formulaic besides the great melodic atmospheric closer. it thankfully doesn't overstay it's welcome though. also some more vocal variety like the gutturals at the end of "moss covers all" or hooks like on "the calm that keeps you awake" would've added a lot. a good time but nowhere near aoty material. play at the gym for all your gainz.
edit- this ended up growing on me a bit after a few more jams and going back and listening to "a tear in the fabric of life". this is definitely a bit more varied, a touch more intricate with melodic dissonance breaking up the chugs and has a stronger groove to it which i appreciate. "piece by piece" and almost nu-metal esque "the calm that keeps you awake" stand out on more listens with great breakdown callouts and groovy riffs. the thing that stands out to me on some more listens is how well the album flows as a complete work, i end up getting sucked in and listening to more than i intended. much more memorable than i gave it credit for as i keep coming back for more.
check out: "suffocate" and "sit and mourn"

The album very predictably rips, slams, tears, fucks and destroys, but save for Sit and Mourn, the ambition and
branching out from the EP tracks
is nowhere to be found, and that kind of bums me out
