Such an addictive record. I don't think this is anywhere near my usual stuff but man, it's so addictive. The production is perfect. You could tell me it came out this decade and I wouldn't question it. The layering and melodies are super solid all the way through. I keep catching myself humming every single one.
I love how smoothly it shifts from straight 4/4 into all kinds of weird time signatures without ever losing the groove. That dreamy vibe turning into straight lo-fi ... read more
Crazy debut EP. The first track hits so hard it's unbelievable. I really dig the super thick low end sound, but more than that it's just how raw it feels. Every track is just really good metalcore and the breakdowns hit hard.
Super solid good music. Go in expecting just another great addition to the catalog. Nothing innovative, but that's not what every record needs. It just needs good music.
I originally found myself not that captivated, not in a bad way. It just didn't get my attention like the LP but it clicked eventually. I went for a few other listens months later.

The chorus isn't horrible. I think what is holding this track back is the instrumental choice once the chorus hits. The verses and pre-chorus are solid, especially the last pre-chorus. That is the most repeat section in my opinion. I think songs can be judged on certain aspects, for something quick and listenable.
The vibe is there. I wouldn't go in expecting much considering the whole theme of the track is "who's your bias?" This is definitely out there compared to ... read more
This is just really good metalcore. It has that crabc ore synth influence of course, but honestly this record just does it right. The vocal variety is there. Squeaky cleans, gutturals, and everything in between. This isn't some innovative album, or maybe for the time it was? I don't know. The guitars aren't anything crazy. Just octave chords and those 5-7-8 riffs. But that's exactly what you'd want from an album like this.
It's a good balance of breakdowns, ... read more
