| I wish I enjoyed this more than I do. It's just not very memorable. I haven't loved anything since Cheer, but I'm glad they're still going. Love their energy. |

I don't hate this, but I swear they just finished recording it just a few weeks ago. It feels
rushed. Needed more layers, more mixing, and more time to stew. The songs aren't awful but the
production makes them feel really flat. And there are no stand-out tracks like "Revelation" or
"Amateurs" to elevate the release as a whole. I don't know why Keith feels the need to repeat
lines so many times, he's always been a better writer than that. |

| Glad I didn't spend the money to pre-order this like I originally wanted to. The first three songs are pretty rad but after that it becomes borderline unlistenable. I like noisy music as much as the next grindcore fan but it's hard to anyone sitting down listening to the latter half of this release and thinking "Oh yeah, that's the good stuff". |

| "Martyr Song" is one of the coolest songs they've ever written but the other two are just kinda there. First track feels like a pointless intro. I would be more interested in the remixes if they'd have done new mixes of several songs instead of 3 of the same track. Odd choice. |
