EDIT (88 - 74):
I still like a good amount with this album, but as time has went on i've sort of realized how a lot of the songs blend together, and the songs I thought were truly amazing were just pretty good songs in reality. I don't like deathcore as much now, so my rating drops.

A masterclass of the best parts of Deathcore and Black Metal, meshed to be the best of both worlds. The lyrics, the storytelling, and, of course, the music itself, is some of the best we ... read more
This is for sure the weakest of the WIll Ramos era songs, but it still isn't terrible. At this point, Lorna Shore really needs to start getting unique, because the product is getting old, and it's getting old fast.
Angelmaker is and always will be my favorite blend of Black Metal and Deathcore. The way both sub-genres are intertwined to make a beautiful sound is something that is rarely done. They get better with every album, and this is just the icing on the cake that is this band's amazing list of bangers.
The standout by far is What I Would Give, which is such an amazing song on an emotional level. Whenever Angelmaker tackles things like this, like what they did with Leech, it is a masterclass. The ... read more
Pretty good for my first slam album. I do think, however, it does get pretty generic and repetitive over time. It isn't that bad of an issue however when the base product is pretty great!
Takes a special human being to appreciate the true masterpiece this is. Meme Metal at it's finest.
Maybe it's just me being a dirty Darko US fan, but I really enjoy the chaotic energy this gives off compared to the other Will songs we have heard so far. Yes, it is still the base structure that Lorna Shore has been doing under Will, but they still find a way to make it sound fresh and unique.

"When it comes to the vocals, it'll help to include that the vocalist himself has admitted to just making random noises in the microphone and adding the lyrics on top afterwards for thematic meaning."

On Lorenz0_'s review of Ghost Mountain - OCTOBER COUNTRY
"I listen to a good amount of Witch House, and I can say that Ghost Mountain has always had a different sound to most in the genre. Compared to a lot more of the Trap-heavy stuff to come out of Witch House, GM has a lot of ethereality to the music. His mixing is conventionally weird, and theres not a lot you can exactly compare it to. I'd say, do another relisten, and just focus more on the general "vibe" or melody since that takes lead much more frequently."

On CharlestonDraws's review of brakence - hypochondriac
"If i were to interject, i think this album, along with all the bluffing, is supposed to allude to a character, not exactly just being upfront. Someone who has a fragile ego, and is desperate to look cool and composed. I've always seen this album as an allusion to an ego death in its entirety. Someone, pumped up on drugs, realizing that they are a terrible person, and have been harming themselves and others for a fraction of a happy and stable life.
I think the "brakence is dead" and the entire tagline rewind i think is just alluding even more to this being an ego death. All of the bragging, hyping up, all the mutually abusive relationships as hinted at in Venus Fly Trap. It's all just a front from a fragile person."
On SaneInsanity's review of fallingwithscissors - the death and birth of an angel
"I think thats just how the genre is. Listening to other albums from similar hardcore-inflenced bands has the same compressed instrumentals and vocals. The vocals getting lost in the mix is intentional, i'd imagine, as its supposed to be a compliment, not the headline of the music."
On Crown The Empire - DOGMA
"Just a small addition. It really sucks seeing Andy's amazing vocals being wasted. I know he loves the band, but he is stuck plateauing every time a disappointing album comes out. It sucks."
