Really solid listen overall. Probably the least mathy album they have, but a lot just works for me here.

I think I have to digest this one a bit more, but wow, I really enjoyed this album a lot. Instrumentation was on point and everything from an engineering standpoint was really well done.

This may be the weirdest mathcore album I've tried so far. I can't lie and say that this isn't enjoyable, because it really is. There's a lot of quiet moments that make the harder moments of the album feel well-earned, but I still find a longing for something that this is missing. This also feels like it inspired a lot of the most recent Daughters album too. There's definitely a lot to digest with this one and maybe with further listens, I'll rank it higher. For now, I think this rating is appropriate.

I actually enjoy this album a lot. It really screws with your head while also using solid djent throughout the album. Tracks ebb and flow nicely and it's just a powerhouse of an album. I like many of the dynamics here, but I know it has that metalcore edge that gives me some bias.

This doesn't even seem like a mathcore album, it almost feels like a hardcore punk album at times. But as a starting point for the genre, I think this fits pretty well.

This makes me want to aggressively chew water.
