| Wow the title song from 'Ralph Breaks the Internet' is bad.. Like getting slapped in the face with a fistful of rotten tuna level bad. Even for current day pop standards... |

| Instead of Djent by numbers, they went for hardrock by numbers, with a result that's a little bit more enjoyable for me. But that's more me being fed up with the same Djent sound than it is the quality of the material here. Production is good, the songs are never bad or crinchworthy, but it has no soul or inspiration behind it whatsoever. |

| Yeah, not having me turn off a Djent album after 3 songs in 2018 is quite a feat. There's enough in these songs to keep it interesting. Good vocals, some interesting progressive quirks and even a couple of really great songs make this a very enjoyable record. |
