What a step-up! This album sounds way better than the debut, more polished, and the whole thing feels huge. I don't know why "Moules Frites" got such a low score, cause I really like the sound and the lyrics are also fun. "Humain à l'eau" is the only track, that sounds cheap, no idea, what happened there. Lyrics are, like the last time, great and way less pessimist.

Viel besser als das Debüt. Das ganze Album klingt viel besser und größer. Sound und ... read more
The way he makes sad songs sound fun, is compelling. Almost every track is catchy, but some of them aren't very entertaining. "Peace or Violence" and "Silence" are two parts of the album I just don't enjoy. I came for the beats, but I stayed for the lyics.

Die Art traurige Lieder tanzbar zu machen, finde ich immer beachtlich. Jede Track hat etwas eingängiges, auch wenn mir manche Lieder nicht gefallen. Insgesamt macht das Album schon Spaß und es lohnt sich auf ... read more
After my first listens, I hated this album. It was too long, and the tracks were just overwhelming. Indeed, the LP grew on me over time. The album has its weak points (especially tracks 8-10), but I can easily overlook these, because here are some really strong tracks on this. The album feels like they tried to return to their roots (Transmissions).

Zuerst mochte ich die Platte nicht, aber mit der Zeit gefiel es mir immer besser. Neben einigen Schwachpunkten, die ich übersehen kann, ... read more
I love this album. This is so fun to listen to and with every listen I discover some new things, I overheard the last times. "Diving Bell" is my favorite track by Starset.
-
Ich liebe das Album. Es macht richtig Spaß und bei jedem Hören entdecke ich immer neue Sachen, die mir bisher nicht aufgefallen sind. "Divin Bell" ist mein liebstes Lied von Starset.

I can't describe what's wrong with this album, but apart from some tracks, the album just isn't as entertaining as the debut. "Satellite" and "Monster" are very nice.
-
Ich weiß nicht, woran es liegt, aber "Vessels" gefällt mir nicht so gut, wie das Debüt. "Satellite" und "Monster" sind richtig gute Tracks.

From front to back, strong. "My Demons" may overshadow the whole LP, but "Down With the Fallen", "Carnivore" and "Let It Die" are some more highlights.
-
Von vorne bis hinten ein gelungenes Werk. "My Demons" überschattet etwas das Album, aber "Down With the Fallen", "Carnivore" und "Let It Die" sind weitere Highlights des Albums.

I like this album. The mix of heavy and more calm tracks is great. "Sun Killer" is a great opener, "Holy Roller" came unexpected and "Circle With Me" is perfection. This LP isn't perfect, but I think the band made so much right.
-
Ein toller Mix aus harten und eher soften Tracks. "Sun Killer" ist ein toller erster Track, "Holy Roller" kam echt unerwartet und "Circle With Me" ist perfekt. Die Platte ist nicht perfekt, aber man hat ... read more
I really like "Black Hole Sun". It's one of my favorite grunge songs, but I think it drags the album down. While I'm listening, I'm literally waiting for this song to come up. I just can't enjoy the rest as much, until I finally heard the track. Nonetheless, there are some more tracks, that I genuinely enjoy. This is definitely worth a listen.

"Black Hole Sun" zieht meiner Meinung nach das Album etwas runter, da ich nur darauf warte, dass das Lied endlich kommt. Trotzdem ... read more
Very fun, fast-paced album. The first three tracks are huge. The album tends to get monotonous at some points, but all in all, the record is still very entertaining.
-
Nettes, kurzes Album. Die ersten drei Tracks sind fett. Auch wenn das Album ab und zu mal durchhängt, ist es dennoch sehr unterhaltsam.

This happens, when half of your original line-up is gone. Here are some decent tracks, but the bigger part of the album is so boring. This sounds like they made an album for the sake of making an album. I'm curious if and when the band will break up for good. The replacement of members and the everlasting gossip around the band annoys me. Maybe they pull themselves together in the future and they start making something exciting again.

Favorite Tracks:
- The Dying Song
- The Chapeltown Rag
I wouldn't consider this LP a must-listen. Here are definitely tracks, that just slap, but "Death Because of Death", "What's Next" and "Spiders" are so weak, they drag the whole album down.
-
Hier sind einige Lieder drauf, die richtig Spaß machen, aber Lieder wie "Beath Because of Death", "What's Next" oder "Spiders" ziehen das ganze Album runter.

Do I hear kazoos in the intro? :D
"The Devil In I" and "The Negative One" are nice, and I can't stand "Custer" anymore, since TikTok discovered the track. The rest of the album is uneventful, just the casual Slipknot shenanigans.
-
"The Devil In I" und "The Negative One" sind gut und "Custer" mag ich nicht mehr, seitdem TikTok das Lied für sich entdeckt hat. Der Rest der Platte ist ziemlich ereignislos, es sind die normalen ... read more
Why is this album so badly received? This is not the most consistent Slipknot LP, but the good tracks are awesome. Even though the track varies from their usual sound, "Snuff" is in my opinion their best track.
-
Das hier ist vielleicht nicht das beständigste Slpilnot-Album, aber die guten Lieder hierauf sind extrem stark. Auch wenn das Lied von dem eigentlichen Sound der Band abweicht, ist "Snuff" meiner Meinung nach das beste Lied der Band.

Definitely some bangers on this, but overall the album doesn't impress me as much as their prior releases.
-
Hier sind einige tolle Lieder drauf, aber insgesamt beeindruckt die Platte weniger als seine Vorgänger.
-
Favorite Tracks:
- The Blister Exists
- Duality
- Vermillion
- Pulse of the Maggots
- Before I Forget
- Vermillion, Pt. 2
This is so much more consistent than their debut. It sounds better without losing this unique sound, that made their first LP special.
-
Das ist viel beständiger als ihr Debüt. Die ganze Platte klingt besser, ohne dass man den Song verliert, der das erste Album ausgemacht hat.
-
Favorite Tracks:
- People = Shit
- Disasterpiece
- My Plague
- The Heretic Anthem
- Left Behind
- Iowa
The first five songs are awesome, but after that, the album gets very inconsistent. I like the raw sound of the first tracks. Very entertaining.
-
Die ersten fünf Songs sind klasse, aber danach flacht das Album schwer ab. Ich mag diesen rohen Sound der ersten Tracks. Sehr unterhaltsam.

- Eyeless

Ich hätte nicht gedacht, dass ich Österreicher so wenig verstehe.
Hier sind sowohl sehr starke Lieder als auch sehr schwache Lieder drauf. "Soits Lebn" und "Der letzte Schnee" sind absolute Highlights. Eine Akustik-Version von "I wü ned" hätte es nicht gebraucht.

Two hours. Some great tracks on "Jupiter" and "Mars", but this album is just too long. I could easily watch The Empire Strike Back while listening to this.
I still enjoyed most of the tracks, especially "Jupiter" is pretty nice. If you'd reduce this project to 10-14 tracks, this would've been a great LP.

This is my favorite so far. It's almost too long, but the tracks are just very nice. Nothing much to say, I just enjoy the LP.

Es ist beinahe zu lang für meinen Geschmack, aber die Lieder gefallen mir zu sehr. Sonst hab ich nix zu sagen, ich mag die Platte einfach.

Favorite Tracks:
- By the Way

- Can't Stop

This is so much more tolerable than "Blood Sugar Sex Magik", even though here are some tiny parts that still annoy me. I like this record, it seems like the band grew since 1991. I really enjoy some of the baselines.
-
Das ist viel besser als "Blood Sugar Sex Magik", auch wenn mich hier einige Stellen noch nerven. Ich mag das Album, vor allem da man sehen kann, dass sich die Band seit 1991 entwickelt hat. Einige Baselines gefallen mir sehr.
