The first half of this album was absolutely wonderful. The back half doesn’t feel as cohesive and is jut a step below that front half, but overall a good listen.
I mean it’s well produced but it’s also just one in a hundred other pop metal bands sounding the same. Hopefully she goes back to more of her roots after this fun side quest.
This is easily one of the best bands to come up in the rock scene in the last 5 years
This is a great return to form for them. Nothing groundbreaking, but enjoyable.
There’s a lot I enjoy here, the country influence is fun, but it’s so short. It feels like every song ends before it can really flourish besides a couple standouts. If the songs had just a little more to them, this could be an amazing album.
It may be "generic" but it's really well produced. Bring Me The Horizon fans will probably like this (the lyrics are less cringe than some BMTH songs).
It's middle of the road modern metalcore. It hits hard but is overall not entirely interesting.
It's a toss up between this and Lifes Not Out to Get You for my favorite pop punk album of all time.
This album just feels like it was made to hit everything I love. There are fun riffs, catchy choruses, both heavier and lighter easycore sounds-what more can I ask for?
I don't know what I am missing with all of these critic reviews, because every track felt incredibly safe and underwhelming. Don't get me wrong, the music is fine, but I am a little shocked this sits at #2 for 2025 releases.
Overall a fun "internet" sounding hyperpop album. underscores influence and production is very apparent on some tracks (e.g., Reaper).
