Gonna listen to this as soon as it's on Spotify. Really hope that the rest of the album can compete with the singles.

As I say in the review, I don't mean to bash Arif. His work was fantastic. But Rody's voice and melodies are such a big part of the band, and I really think he's better suited singing his own lyrics. He's also become a much stronger writer since Scurrilous.

Also From the Sky might be their best song ever. Just stunning.

This is on par with Fortress and Scurrilous for me. Better than Volition and Pacific Myth for sure. I really get what you are saying about Arif lyrics vs. Rody, his lyricism is especially strong here, he has grown a lot since scurrilious. Arif's lyrics on Fortress though were incredible ... I can see why it would rustle some feathers you suggesting that.

No doubt that Arif wrote some of my favorite lyrics ever. But I was always really aware of those moments where it was clear that Rody was doing his best to cram words he didn't write into a predetermined song structure

Im so glad this has more of the OG punk drumming instead of Adlers drumming that sounded exactly the same on every song.

I'm a big fan of Adler's work on Volition but I agree that Mike Ieradi seems to be a more natural fit

His drumming really makes the songs run together for me, and how different he plays Mist is probably why its my favorite on that album.
