Dunno what to say bro, to me this feels like he took everything he had already done well and added some new things, as opposed to playing it safe

this is a damn fine review, congrats on the feature!

oh shit, thanks whoever did that :]



edit: atari you're a real G

This one is less experimental but more focused than Roads, and overall the better record (and Panopticon's best record), though both are fantastic. Probably metal AOTY for me!

"atari you're a real G"



no problem man, you deserved it. was just bad timing with posting my review right before yours and I wanted to ensure people gave your write-up the time of day as well

:] appreciate it, writing this kinda felt like writing a love letter to lunn, i'm a huge fan of his work

i like pretty much all this guys stuff, even kentucky tbh

roads to the north was cookie cutter as balls tho i hope this isnt like that

hmmmm that's a rare opinion to have, i'm actually not sure how'd you react to this. my gut feeling says you'd dislike it

Album Rating: 3.5 | Sound Off

every single track on Roads was stylistically different and he combined all of his ideas instead of going for one focused style... how's that cookie cutter pots? If anything's cookie cutter it was Kentucky where he just took the same bm ideas and slapped flutes on top.

zaru just explained exactly why I like Roads more than this.

Yeah Roads is better.

Roads is great, but I think that the experimentation came at the expense of memorability.
This album is much more focused and passionate, and every song has something that pulls me back to it. If I were to compare this album to another, it'd probably be Axioma Ethica Odini for Enslaved.

Album Rating: 4.5

Really? I don't hear any Enslaved here bro, maybe it's just me haha.

this has a buttload more bm than Axioma tho, which was like barely bm instrumentally.

Album Rating: 4.5 | Sound Off

yeah i love axioma but that was black influenced prog metal. Maybe a bit of tremolo here and there but that's it

I have Social Disservices and Roads to the North and I dig them both, what's this like?

Album Rating: 4.5 | Sound Off

hmmmm i kinda hate comparing it to his previous work, but it's a more polished, well rounded roads. nothing like social honestly

Album Rating: 4.5

Yeah agreed with that. Def doesn't sound like any of their first 3 albums.
