I've been a fan of Kristin's art for about five years now and I've loved just about everything she's worked on. This one isn't doing it for me yet. Maybe it'll work in the context of the album.
I'm not quite ready to give this a ten just yet, but WOW - Foo Fighters made a pretty damn good prog song.
By far, this is the best of the new singles. Genuinely beautiful and touching performances from Dave and his daughter Violet take the spotlight on what is possibly the band's best song in almost a decade
Between the grotesque, bleak imagery and the crystal clear layering of the production, this may be their most devastating offering yet.
Another solid addition to the band's repertoire. The melody kinda sounds like Green Day (not a bad thing). I'm pretty stoked to hear the rest of this album
I like that they're experimenting with the sound and structure to try and create something weird and out there. And in a way, they do succeed at that. However, M. Shadows' vocals sound weaker than they maybe ever have (other than the screaming section - that was pretty cool). In addition, the lyrics just feel so lazy and thrown together in a very nonsensical way.

It's not breaking any new ground but this is the most fun a .gif from god release has sounded to date.

Spooky music

Least Favorite (still good): Burning Hand
I for one quite like these two songs as a kickoff to the new album. Ajj has been a favorite of mine for roughly four years and I think these are two of the best examples of what makes them so special to so many people.
I really love the vulnerability she brings forth on this pair of songs, even if either production really never feels like it fully resolves. However, I have a feeling these songs are meant to be heard as a part of something bigger. For now, this is just a small, but solid, serving of somewhat experimental ballad pop.

"As someone who loves both Converge and Daughters I'm genuinely wondering where on earth you pulled that comparison from. Aside from both being abrasive hardcore-based albums and using high pitched screaming vocals I really dont hear any similarities"
