Arizing - Advance
75

definitely a major change musically compared to womb, this ep has a more emo/post-hardcore sound compared to the more straightforward alternative metal sound shown on womb but it is still an enjoyable ep, i enjoyed false semester, pinky swear, and sour patch but i couldn't find myself liking the big l (falling in love again), it just kind of bores me. my favorite song though is sour patch, i love the pretty heavy outro. i would have loved to hear arizing make a full album in this musical ... read more

LeFT - My Disease
99

IT'S MY DISEASE!!!! oh my god this album is just life changing in every way!! this is such a major upgrade from we deliver for you (which also fucking bangs) overall when it comes to songwriting, production, mainly everything. the vocals are also my favorite thing about this album, genuinely the best singing, screaming, and sometimes rapping i've heard in nu metal. matt dalton is a god when it comes to singing and he is so underrated. this album is a must listen in my opinion for a ... read more

ok i could go on for hours how much i LOVE this album. from the first time i heard the intro riff to smile i fell in complete love. the production in my opinion is totally stellar, i especially love the mix on the rhythm section. should i mention the band is totally on fire here? this is their peak when it comes to aggression overall. that especially shows on "mentobe" and "mirror's reflection". my favorite song on the album though? dragged down without a doubt. it ... read more
