Pavement punching sleeper agent music.

Liked it way more than I thought, especially only knowing the title track. When I saw “Art Rock” used to describe the album when I did research on Wikipedia I was absolutely confused, but I kinda get what the critic that used that term was going for. There’s “Art Rock” influence on certain songs, like ‘Faust, Midas, and Myself,’ which is a stand out track, but overall its just an okay written alternative rock album from a post-grunge band.

Idk I liked it, aside from the singles, I really do think a song like Heaven Forbid is a hidden gem.

It’s alright, it just has a lot of nothing songs and then you’d get something like Ruth which is heads and shoulders above of the other Michael Cera original songs.

Wait is one of the greatest songs ever.

I’m pairing this review with Death to the Overground, the interlude you can listen to on YouTube. Both of those songs bang. I’m loving this new era of songs; Crying was super good and with the context of these heavier songs, all three are propelled.

Even though songs like Obey and Butterflies haven’t aged as well as I thought they would, there’s legitimately three of Bring Me The Horizon’s best songs on here (Dear Diary, Teardrops, and the instant classic, Kingslayer.) Yeah this album fucks.

If you fine tune this, and use this release’s “color palette” for amo instead of what they did, you probably have a pretty cool release. This is alriiiiight, I really wish we didn’t have a 20 minute Oli yap fest come after one of the more interesting songs, but hey I don’t make the rules.

Eh, some of the singles are good, some of them are like some of BMTH’s worst songs. Songs like Sugar Honey Ice and Tea & Heavy Metal come off as so corny. Wonderful Life and Medicine are both like the best case scenarios of what this album is going for, sonically. Deeper cuts leave a lot to be desired.

Used to be my personality going into 2016, along with twenty one pilots’ Blurryface. Now? It’s still pretty good. I appreciate the more electronic rock that’s sonically darker in songs like Doomed. Funny enough the most Sempiternal adjacent song Blasphemy is easily, EASILY the worst song on the album. Also Drown is a top 5 BMTH song and it’s not 5. WHO WILL FIX ME NOWWWWWWWW?!

Features some of the band’s best songs; hard hitting and emotional metalcore. Crucify Me, It Never Ends, and Alligator Blood are my three favorites.

I feel like this remix’s instrumental just has more oomf to it.

A clearly influential album just by listening; I came into this pretty blind. I’m sure someone’s made this comparison, but the same energy In Rainbows gave me is present here.

Boy Division is in my top 5 MCR songs. I fucking love it.

The most Saosin song.

This is overall a better album than RTJ1, but god Love Again is such a bad song.

I thought it was boring, gave it a 65 and it’s still one of the most positive scores… yeeeesh.

Really not the biggest fan of the buttock side of this album, but there’s some really catchy moments and some shinning examples of really good song-writing. My favorite is either Theatre of Cruelty, Mirror, or Grooming My Replacement.

There’s something about the standard Metallic Hardcore meets Axe To Fall Converge, almost Underoath’s Define The Great Line influence on this record and how well defined of a sound it is and they could have just stuck to this, that makes me appreciate Code Orange evolving into the sounds they’ve meshed into their style through out the albums. Colors (Into Nothing) is such a interesting song because it’s like what I imagine post-hardcore should sound like, when compared ... read more

Killer fucking album.
