Skillet - Feel Invincible
0

Programmed drums on a metal song? Yes. Cringy Christian lyrics? Yes. Vocals that sound like parody? Yes. Effects on everything that don’t make it sound like metal? Yes.

The only reason why this isn’t a 0 is because the first 8 seconds convinced me that I wasn’t about to hear something horrible

Skillet - Unleashed
NR

The fact that I think Feel Invincible is one of the worst songs I’ve ever heard and that it’s the highest rated track on here makes me believe that I would despise this album

100

Peak Rap Metal. The riffs and lyrics on this record go so hard

Within Destruction - Lotus
35

Ok ngl this album hasn’t aged well for me. I probably would’ve given it an 8.5/10 the first time I heard it, but I’m staring to get tired of overproduced deathcore even though I would say this album is more of a metalcore album with its clean choruses. I think this album throws a lot of elements from nu metal as well which I think adds a little flavor to the project. There’s nothing really bad about this LP, I just think they tried to combine too many genres to the point ... read more

Counterparts - A Eulogy for Those Still Here
70

Lyrically this project is incredible. I think the instrumentals are a little lacking however.

Moodring - YOUR LIGHT FADES AWAY
60

First off I need to bring up how much I hate the fact that two out of the three songs were released as singles, meaning that there was ONE new song to listen to. When I listened to this bands album last year that I thought was ok, one of my first thoughts was ‘this band is definitely one of those “melodramatic vocals on top of metal riffs bands.”’ I think this EP is pretty solid. I think my biggest complaint is that I felt like I’ve heard this EP before like from ... read more

Fall Out Boy - So Much (For) Stardust
59

An ok return to Fall Out Boys’ 2000s pop punk sound

Incendiary - Change the Way You Think About Pain
80

Riffs and breakdowns were great, the energy throughout was consistently powerful. I think one of my only criticisms is that I’m not crazy about the vocals.

Chamber - A Love To Kill For
80

This album is sick.

Aviations - Coma
40

Don’t take my rating for granted cause I only listened to it once and it’s a long song, but this was meh

Aviations - Legend
50

This song was kind of a mess. In some spots it just sounded like they threw their instruments down the stairs and recorded that.

Aviations - Safehouse
70

This song was nice. I’ll probably come back to it once the album comes out.

Kesha - Gag Order
75

I know it’s weird to see me review a pop album, but there’s a couple reasons why I wanted to listen to this album. I grew up listening to Kesha’s biggest hits like TiK ToK and Die Young ever since I was 8 years old. I started to hear that this album would go into dark themes about “overcoming trauma and depression resulting from her legal battle with her former producer, Dr. Luke.” I got curious and listened to Eat The Acid since it was a single and it gave me ... read more

Pain of Truth - Actin' Up
90

This goes so hard. Every time this song plays in a room filled with people they start moshing no matter what they’re doing

MouthBreather - You Try to Die
90

The best mathcore song of the year so far

Disturbed - Divisive
20

No Distubed, I don’t want to hear the same riff over and over again

FEVER 333 - $wing
25

ew. I guess something positive about the track is that the chorus is kinda catchy but it also doesn’t really connect with the rest of the song and feels lazy. What’s sad is that I know that the vocalist, Jason Aalon Butler, can write good music. Just listen to letlive or Pressure Cracks instead.

Benjamin Tod - A Heart Of Gold Is Hard To Find
60

It’s hard for me to like a country album as someone who doesn’t like country, so I’m biased but this wasn’t bad. This is pretty soft compared to the country that’s overplayed on the radio. Feeling a 5.5 to a 6 out of 10

Boundaries - Burying Brightness
90

Yeah this is probably my favorite metalcore album of 2022. The riffs, breakdowns, and I normally don’t care about the lyrics but damn they were amazing. I think this album is a more creative album than their previous works. I think the clean vocals add more depth and are used cleverly. The only reason why this isn’t a 10 is because of the last track with its 3+ minutes of the same swirl sound, and also the harsh vocals could be more unique.

Better Lovers - God Made Me An Animal
70

If you want Dillinger Escape Plan vocals on top of some Every Time I Die riffs then you’ll love this EP

On Dayseeker - Creature In The Black Night
"The instrumentals accompany the lyrics more properly on dark sun than this album. Like the instrumentals in Pale Moonlight are so dumb because it has lyrics about someone (potentially Rory) 'dancing with the devil' to where it's harming them, and it sounds like a radio rock song meant to motivate people. Like shouldn't the song sound sad or at least off putting?"
On Dayseeker - Creature In The Black Night
"@PoisonBow I haven't listened to dark sun in a while, I don't like either album but I think it is better than creature in the black night because the lyrics and song meanings have a bit more effort into them. Like with Parallel about his father passing away, or with Paper Hearts about Rory sharing that he has been so overwhelmed by the weight of the world that he has a suicidal thought about dying in a car crash"

"@tn3t3ta How can you hate me so much, yet know nothing about me? I’ve given a lot of metalcore albums high ratings. I recently gave the new dying wish album, a metalcore band, a rating definitely higher than a 3/10. There’s nothing wrong with disagreeing with me, but don’t spread misinformation."
On PRESIDENT - King of Terrors
"@RemisReviews I don’t think I’ve ever said in my life that pop vocals make something bad. For the genre comment, it is my believe that these bands are more closer to pop than metal. A lot of their songs are just pop tunes featuring metal breakdowns and basic small elements of other genres."

On HomeSession3's review of Slaughter to Prevail - GRIZZLY
"a score of 50 being a "awful score" to me doesn't make any sense cause you're ignoring half of the numbers of quality you could be using to score an album (49 - 0). If you thought this album was worse than a 5/10 "middle of the road score" than you should rate it lower."
