Ok, this is nowhere near as bad as people are saying. It's not great and 3 or 4 songs I really can't bare, but lots on here is cool.
Ok, this is actually incredible. I wasn't entirely convinced after the first song, but wow is the rest of this album utterly perfect.
Revisiting this, I do reckon it is the best First Of October album, close to the first, and close to the most recent (2024), but I think it's the best.
I am a huge, huge fan of Across The Road and Pretty Raw is still somehow my favourite song ever, but this album might… er… be a lil bit better.
Love 'Doomsday Blue' and hope it does well in ESC 2024. Rest of the album is kinda average but I also like 'Last Summer' and especially 'Bye Boy'.
This album is really great but I'm giving it a higher score than it actually is to bump up the rating. I don't know how someone has rated it 0. Bizarre.
holy moly
Ok, I can breathe now.
The screeches at the beginning might have made me the most horrified I've felt during a song. In the best way possible. This band knows how to do thall that's for sure. The immense relentlessness of this song is insane and the harpsichord-sounding part and acoustic guitar thrown in just somehow work perfectly. I feel ashamed that this project is not as big as other thall giants but I can assure you it won't take long. This right here is the future of not just ... read more
Some absolute bangers on here but just not as consistent as last year. I do hope either iolando, nena or rita rocha win.
A truly perfect album that balances relentlessness and beauty in the most satisfying way. As a lover of shoegaze and extreme metal, this album seems like a once-in-a-lifetime creation and experience. A record that no-one should miss out on.

"@aliceunderstars yeah, it all depends on what u listen to, and what u like, lol, but I do agree that 2026 being a brilliant year is definitely a lil bit of a hot take. I do also think that, in a few months, it's possible that albums will start growing off me a bit, too."

On Tiorrr's review of Archspire - Too Fast to Die
"Being incapable of whimsey must be a bit of a sad life. Also, people don't just like artists like this because of technical ability, and the fact that is the only reasoning you can think of for people liking this band, is more of a problem than anyone else. Also, 'not having any actual songwriting'? Ok, ah, I understand now, you listened to a different album. Gotcha."

On COLE's review of LELEK - Andromeda
"Watch it with the music video then. It's art. (well it's incredible without, but I see you don't share that view somehow) Also are you a Eurofan? If not, I wouldn't expect your music taste to lineup with this song then anyway, so I'm surprised you listened to it."
