Derek™ Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 I went into this album with low expectations, and I have to say that I think I'd probably enjoy this band a lot more if they were purely instrumental. Feels weird to say that, but the instrumental breaks and jams were easily the highlight of the album for me. Maybe the only highlight.

Like...spot on rhythm and all. Meeeeeh. I thought the EXACT same thing when I first listened to it. Like a ghost level or something. But yeah, this album is extremely disappointing. There was like 1 or 2 decent songs, the rest I was not a fan of. The vocals really ruin a lot of them for me. I'd have to agree that this would be awesome as an instrumental or something, or different vocals. This sounds way too clean and poppy.. kjkenney 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DecayToDeath Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 You guys set my expectations pretty low and I ended up enjoying this. It's pretty front loaded and it may not be all that technically impressive but I had fun with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Having fun with it is all that counts, glad to hear it. Those vocals are pretty terrible though, like hxcoliver said. I wouldn't say they make it unlistenable for me, but they hinder me from wanting to dedicate shelf space to own it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I definitely agree about the vocals. Take that away and I was satisfied with a mindless & dancey record that I can probably throw on in the background for stuff.

voltagedrop Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Picked up my green-blob-in-translucent today. Doesn't really match the rest of the artwork, but still looks pretty slick! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aellerton Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Bull Moose has the standard and an orange variant up. They also had free flexi's of "Freeze Me" in-store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxmartinxx Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Their first EP was amazing and it's been downhill since then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ptothedo Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Not terrible, but not up to par with their other stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
