You can barely hear the cellos, they focus much more on the drums, the sound of the guitars
and the singers, and that is not Apocalyptica. They should go back to their roots and go
back to instrumental songs only, when they had much more potential. They have become more
commercial now, which is not good.

| 1.5 very poor | Do I have somfing n my face? | September 23rd 23 |
the fuck is this album? random alt/prog rock, some mccore, barely any celloship, roundtable guests for days. only decent track is broken pieces, mostly because of lacey sturm

Really beautifully written album. Some of the songs on here are some of the best ive ever heard, in particular Broken Pieces and End Of Me, two songs that really mean the world to me. This is Apocalypticas best by a long way in my personal opinion.

As I thought with "Worlds Collide", Apocalyptica has started getting far to reliant on other stars to fill in vocals for them. What this group needs is either to return to full instrumental albums (which is what they were good at), or hire a full time vocalist, in order to give their albums a feeling of consistency, and not some poorly assembled compilation album.

It's true that very little of the unique character of the cello comes across anymore in their songs, which is certainly a bit disappointing (sigh, there's always Grayceon to listen to), but I for one (and it seems like I might be the only one here) like some of the collaborations with vocalists here. Ok, it might be insultingly simple, but it's meant to be simple clean melodies and harmonies. I actually prefer that part of the album to, say, "At The Gates of Manala," which basically cherrypicks a few memorable riffs from their previous albums and reassembles them into one song, or the boring "2010." Lol at "Manon Snikkers"--there are no guitars on this album, just electric cellos.

The singing really ruins songs that could have been good, also, most songs are a tad too
radio-friendly.

After hearing the first song "At The Gates of Manala", I thought that it's really great. I have seemed that it can be extraordinary music experience. Unforunately, because of irrelevant featuring and poor effects of that, it wasn't.

Apocalyptica meets country? No thanks. At The Gates of Manala and Through Paris in a Sportscar are pretty good songs. Dave Lombardo does little to add to 2010, and Broken Pieces is so slick and over-produced its painfully average. Boring, boring, boring.

As usual Apocalyptica are polluting their material with boring pop songs done with even more boring singers. Three out of four songs are your standard radio friendly material, and the fourth song done with that guy from Gojira is nothing special either. The most disappointing moment is when you realize that "The Gates of Manala" is actually best track here, and with exception of few flashes of brilliance the rest of the material sinks in mediocrity.
