2.5 average | NewBallistics | October 14th 23 | It always hurts to see your favorite aspects of a band you love disappear. But I hope this works out for them and they blow up.

3.0 good | cjbizzlebizzle | December 27th 23 | On 'Perfect Saviors' The Armed move more towards a noise rock, indie sound that honestly just kind of loses a lot of the edge that made some of their previous material great. 'Modern Vanity' is a great song and a reminder the group still has something left in the tank and for the most part nothing is offensively bad but it all kind of just blends together and catchy/important moments are hard to find outside of that track. Honestly what hit me in the face the hardest was the singing vocals that dominate the album and are about as milquetoast as it gets.

3.0 good | ajcollins15 | August 29th 23 | I continue to want this band to be great. Through the years and sonic change-ups, they have evolved a lot. But one thing that constantly plagues their music is the complete inability to make a good-sounding back half. It?s interesting to see this issue continue to plague them even back in their mathcore days. On the band's fifth album, they start off extremely strong with noisy and energetic post-hardcore, which builds into a noisy and experimental art rock track. But as soon as the band moves away from this it starts to go downhill fast. When they start playing around with alternative dance and new rave, things fall apart. By the end of the album, you get an indie rock piece that feels so out of place that you question what you just listened to. Overall ?Perfect Saviors? starts like all their records, expansive and energetic, but falls apart roughly halfway through until by the end you question what the band was thinking.

3.2 good | Erwann S. STAFF | August 29th 23 | Arf. They wanted to come up with the biggest rock album ever, and they fall short. The issue when you fall short of a ginormous objective: it's an epic fail. Not that it's bad, it's just that the soundscape it hints at never fully comes into fruition.
