    Song's ok, surely better than the first single. I'm feeling a bit more of their trademark atmosphere in this, but still, the vocals are way too poor.. How do you replace Alex Hofmann with this kid with no range and no lows, he honestly kinda sucks.

    Fallujah without lows = no Fallujah to me. 

     

    Let’s not be blinded by nostalgia lol. Alex was a good vocalist, yes, but he was pretty one dimensional with his vocals. That being said, I think I would still prefer him to the new guy. 

     

    That aside, I do think this song is better than the previous. My attention is a little more piqued.

    Did I ever say there was an issue? 

     

    So then why are you getting defensive lol. You’re the one comparing the band you’re defending to other bands out there. I actually agreed with that second statement.

    If you wash, rince, repeat, successfully, then is it really bad?

    They have a formula that works 

     

    And plenty of other popular bands are "one trick ponies" with lyrics

     

    I never said it was bad, generally. It’s just boring and predictable to me. 

     

    And yeah they are. And I don’t like them. Lol. So what’s the issue.

    I feel the complete same way about this album as you.  It's a good album, but its not great or groundbreaking in anyway.  It is just another Beartooth album, same as the ones before it and the same as the ones in the future.  Caleb's vocals are great and the songs are catchy and such, but that is all this album has to offer to me.  Once you heard one BT song, you've pretty much heard them all.   Half the songs on this album (and same with half of all their songs) start off with his quiet screamed vocals and then leads right into the main riff/breakdown of the song.    The other half of the songs start off with him singing and then leads right into the chorus riffs/chords with him continuing to sing.  They really all do sound the same if you try and catch stuff like that, but people never notice the flaws in the things they love so blindly...  I'll comeback to a few songs on the album (for their catchiness of course) but that's it.

     

    Yeah the fanboyism for this band is crazy on this site. They (Beartooth) really are a wash, rinse, and repeat band. Which necessarily isn’t a bad thing because at least they’re consistent, think TAA. But this album won’t even come near my top 10 for the year. Easily.

    Didn’t think I’d be posting a fucking review but whatever. 

     

    This is a very middle of the road album to me. I was a huge fan of the first EP and LP (shocker right) but ever since I saw them live and Aggressive coming, they just kinda lost their spark to me. Caleb is in no way a bad musician but Toof just ain’t cutting it anymore for me. The production on this album is weird. I feel like it lacks any sort of punch. Caleb’s vocals are still cool. That’s one of the band’s strong suits. This isn’t metalcore anymore though IMO. This is like radio-dad-arena rock or something. And that’s cool if that’s what you’re into it but I’m not vibing with it. Songs are very predictable for the most part. Very easy to follow structure. Lots of rinse and repeat. It’s like once you hear 1 Beartooth song, you’ve heard 85% of the discography.

     

    Bad Listener is the only song I see myself coming back. Definitely the stand out for me. Manipulation had a dope breakdown. Same with Enemy. Finally, am I missing something with Clever??? People were gassing this song up to be super emotional and tear inducing and yeah... I didn’t really get those kind of vibes at all. 

     

    Alright. That’s all I gotta say. I’m ready for the downvotes by the Beartooth Brigade.

    Definitely the spiritual successor to T&Y (Mural Jr. for example), which is a major plus for my purposes. It's overly long, but that's not to say there aren't 98 mins worth of quality ideas. It's the kind of album you split into sessions. 

     

    Yeah I believe Lupe himself tweeted that the album is definitely two parts. The first part ends after track 9 IIRC

    Is it just me or this is weak stuff from Em?

     

    Even MGK's was better than this, kinda disappointing coming from Em (not that I can do better, lol)

     

    IMO IMO IMO IMO IMO

     

    Thats because Em fell off. Hard. Has been that way for a while. He basically has to fight to stay relevant these days.
