This is a pretty by the numbers heavy Spiritbox song. It likely won't win you over if you aren't a fan of them.

Abysmal sampling like this might be the worst thing you can do as an artist

A tightly performed, unpredictable track that slightly stretches the boundaries of death metal

Linkin Park could definitely do better. I think Emily's voice fits the instrumentals very well, although the song didn't really start going until she came in. I think the lyrics could've been more complex and the song could've been less formulaic sonically. Here's hoping the album will be more identifiable than this single when it comes to rock radio.

Edit (60->20): I didn't know that Emily was a piece of sh*t. She shouldn't have been chosen to be the co ... read more

A short album that is able to deliver a powerful and lively listen through pleasant combinations of jazz and rap music

Maruja showcase some great performances on "Knocknarea." On the opening track "Thunder" the band showcases how they mastered the use of dynamics. I like how "The Tinker" slowly builds throughout its runtime to the point where the ending is very loud and cathartic. The album closer "Kakistocracy" ends in a way that makes you feel like you're in some haunting landscape.

I think that my biggest criticism with this project is that some moments and ... read more

That was disgusting

I like how this track didn't have a linear structure and managed to do a lot with its length

This is how you do death metal with added production to it. It's not overproduced to where it sounds synthetic yet it manages to make the instrumentals hit extra hard.

This is even more intense than their last single

A good classic death metal sounding track with its raw production and speedy performances

The first 75% of this track is laughably bad, but when Mick Jagger comes in it is truly puzzling to why anyone thought releasing this song was a good idea

Nails still manage to make an album that sounds just as heavy, intense, strong performed, and even groovy as their other albums, while being far from a replica of those albums. Seriously one of the most consistent metal bands of all time.

A death album just as menacing as its cover and title. It's also paced to be as ruthless and unforgiving as possible. Definitely not for everyone, but a good starting album if you want to get into brutal death metal.

I'm pretty satisfied with this track. They did a really good job with the chaotic instrumentals on this track. The vocals in the chorus remind me of the vocals that would be in a song by The Dillinger Escape Plan. But it's not too similar as it was applied differently due to it being accompanied by a backup vocal harmony.

Instrumentally and structurally this is one of Fit For An Autopsy's best songs. Still didn't care for the clean vocals they had in it though.

I think the best way to describe this album is that it's like a jawbreaker. It has multiple different layers to it and it's not easy to consume. While "Maze Envy" is primarily doom metal, it also has a lot of other elements from other metal genres like death metal and progressive metal incorporated into it. It's a great metal release to check out and I have a feeling that Civerous will be able to top this album in the future.

I usually don't lose my mind to pop albums, but this album was giving me constant eargasms as I was trying to give it a proper review.

Magdalena Bay on "Imaginal Disk" have found a way to perfect their sound and pop music in general. They've managed to make the production on this album even more varied than on "Mercurial World." It can hit hard or be very soft, sometimes on the same song at the same time. The vocal performances from Mica are fantastic and have a ... read more

Melt-Banana are back after an 11 year hiatus to show that they still are the leaders of creative and unstable noise rock. I found "3 + 5" to still be as notable as their past works and I think it goes even wilder and harder than on their past albums. The whole album is also distinctively composed to give the project some tracklist diversity. If you know and are prepared to receive what this album throws at you, then you will likely enjoy it.

The two things I don't like about this song:
1. the la la la's are a little goofy
2. the song ends
