4.0 excellentFearThyEvil | July 3rd 15

How are people acting like noise rock was never part of this bands sound since the beginning? It's always been around guys

4.5 superbMetaltronic | June 24th 15

Success is completely different from every other KEN Mode album; this is waaaaaaay noisier and abrasive. It's total Jesus Lizard and other similar '80s & '90s noise rock band worship, but they pull it off EXTREMELY well. If you're into anything Steve Albini has been involved with or really noisy post-hardcore, you'll like this. It doesn't sound like the same band, and I really hope they continue on this road on their next LP. If you listen to just a few songs off of this, I strongly recommend either Blessed, I Just Liked Fire, The Owl, or Dead Actors (which sounds strikingly like Slint).

4.5 superbAxeToFall93 | April 12th 20

How is this so low rated? This is clearly their best, mainly because their more focussed on the noise rock part.

4.5 superbTheMightyScoop | May 6th 19

3.0 goodBRAman22 | June 18th 15

Success is post punk with a bit of technicality here and there. There are a few good songs, but as a whole the album is absolutely nothing special.

the bass tone on this is fucking insane. super crunchy.

4.0 excellentMasterJebbly | June 23rd 16

A very nice change of pace. This is some great noisey post-hardcore with some influence from Dead Kennedys, as I hear it.

Bump

3.5 greatDeadwing42 | December 29th 15

Some really good tracks and a few that wind up feeling a little too same-y. Love the Slint worship on the last track.

Bump

3.0 goodBtwntheAKIRAndMe | August 2nd 15

Mid 7 out of 10: I am totally a fan of KEN mode, but I have yet to find an LP from them that I am in love with. This continues with this LP. Good, but nothing super spectacular, in my opinion.

Bump

2.5 averagetitanslayer | June 26th 15

Not a fan of noise rock for the most part so this is really disappointing to me after their last album.

Bump

3.0 goodJasonCarne | June 23rd 15

This band has so much potential but they just never manage land a knockout of an album, maybe next time?

Bump

0.0 LivingThrowaway | June 21st 15

They dropped the ball on this one...

Bump

3.0 goodBMFD4567 | June 18th 15

A bit disappointing, but overall no offensively bad songs. The first and last songs hit the hardest.

Bump

3.0 goodNBA | June 2nd 15

album art perfectly mirrors my feelings of this album, especially after how amazing Entrench was....

Bump

4.5 superbJokineAugustus | May 25th 15

Will be AOTY, and I'm not just saying that because I'm from Winnipeg.
