Guys guys I think I figured it out why this album sucks:

There are no pick slides.

2.0 poorjmh886 | August 20th 25

how is a record produced this badly in 2025 with what is probably a large budget?

3 Bumps | Bump

2.0 poorFatheringhamDrive | August 15th 25

Utterly bland beyond a handful of tracks like Soldier and Prizefighter. Save your money

4 singles out now. Album is shaping up to be absolute trash!

2.5 averageDromasta | September 3rd 25

Would rate this lower if I could bring myself to
actually listen to this beyond the first couple songs. A
2 is probably generous. Good Rise Against died in 2008.
Even Appeal to Reason was a step down in quality from
the previous 3 albums. The guitar work just became
boring, and it has stayed that way for nearly 20 years.
There is no bite to Tim's voice like there was when he
was a wee lad. Whatever passion he has doesn't come
through on the recording, at least to my ears. I WILL
NOT listen to a RA album, especially when the production
sounds this bad, ever again. Tim needs to get pissed off
again, and hire a third guitarist that writes more
interesting parts, and maybe they can produce something
worth listening to.

This was phoned in. Worst production. Time to call it a career and be done.

Rules of Play and Miracle were at least half decent songs. first straight up bad rise against
closer and that's unforgivable tbh.

go to bed Tim.

3.0 goodCaleb Robinson CONTRIBUTOR | August 18th 25

Damn, I didn't love this but I also didn't find it to be as bad as the rest of the site apparently does. Yeah, vocals are mixed shitty for the most part and the band has definitely lost their edge, but I didn't really find anything to be offensively terrible. Pretty run-of-the-mill, average stuff.

Bump

2.5 averageFerretmusic | August 17th 25

While maintaining the lyrical grit, the music has has lost it. Instead of a melodic punk, this albums provides a sterile, somewhat melancholy arena rock

Bump

1.0 awfuljc3494 | August 16th 25

Why does he sound like this?

Bump

1.0 awfulTheNoodle | August 15th 25

Why did they make it all sound like that? Unlistenable

Bump

1.5 very poorOverSlyZed91 | August 15th 25

The only half decent song is Black Crown. The rest is a complete waste of time.

Bump

2.5 averageSly4evr | August 15th 25

Mid, just mid. I liked I Want It All, Black Crown, Forty Days, and Soldier. Everything else was a groaning disappointment
and aren't mosh-pit material. Sorry Rise Against, you missed the mark.
