I LOVE this album. A combination of questioning topics of artificial intelligence, politics, society, technology and space. Avenged Sevenfold just really tickled my brain in the right way with this one. Life is just a simulation and we're the ones on the stage performing the the enjoyment of others. Society is eventually going to cause its own extinction bc humans are destructive creatures that can't help but create war. I love when A7X does prog because they do it so right.

You're blindly stuck in a painful trance that you can't escape, no matter how hard to try to shove your way through it.

Healing occurs over time and only then can you continue to grow. Without acceptance you will only drown deeper.
