EDIT: nevermind, switchblade ost kinda fucks, it's one of my most played songs this year. def amazing for a light more party mood, especially when most Metalcore is so serious

Brief Review: -5 points for the sheer ass that “Switchblade OST” was, but apart from that, amazing ass metal record! Riffs are honestly some of the hardest Ive heard this year, production go crazy, and the way this album fuses elements of metalcore and some hip hop here and there is honestly really fun and goofy in a way I wish more metal records leaned into nowadays. Genuinely hope this picks up more traction sometime, cause this deserves some more attention! Fun asf!
