this band never quite did it for me before but this is the assumption of the sceptre oceansize dropped

except different
I do like the Vangelis-y stuff in "A Flood Of Light"

This is the best thing I've ever heard

i haven't listened to this band since i saw them live in 07/08 (was a great show and they were ridiculously young) but i should check this out maybe

I thought they were just like a little math rock band who I occasionally liked a bit. This is totally different and wildly ambitious! Thank you, Brad! (And sorry Simon H for not spying this in the metal thread)

yeah I saw them a couple of times at about that time (I dug them though they were a little too screamy for my taste and I preferred Cutting Pink With Knives who I think were on the same bill both times) but had no idea they were even still together - p surprising for a band that started so young, well done to them. will check this out!

Yeah, still incredible the next day. Balancing The Dark is preposterously good

second best 2018 mathcore album after 'only love' ;)

Both in my top...five? of the year so far though - no other metal albums have come close

way too many artists releasing their best albums ever this year but this is one of them

anyone who came onboard for this one, pls check out the previous album, which is slightly less crazily ambitious but imho just as good

i don't have many thoughts other than "this shit rips" and "the beautiful and the brutal have never been better integrated"
