maybe they'll add it on; the last album came in a deluxe version that added 2-3 tracks

this record is very good on first listen but man it's a lot to take in

I actually find it tidier and less overwhelming than AWLWLB

Insanely good. I just expect that a new Converge album will be incredible.
I think "Murk & Marrow" is my favourite on first pass.

hard to tell bc all of their records are so good but i think this one probably earns the "best since jane doe" description

this opinion brought to you by how hard i am headbanging at home alone to "arkhipov calm"

Amen - this record is melting my mind today! Not sure where I would rank it, but I can see myself playing this as much as I can the last one or Jane.

It's nice to not have to strain to make out what Bannon is singing/speaking/shrieking/howling about for a change.

"We all disagreed about what the strongest songs were, and which songs made for the best record. I think we're all equally unhappy with what ended up on the album. It was a compromise. Some of the songs on that album are actually some of the weakest ones that we recorded, and some of the ones that aren't on the album are the strongest. We're just not exactly sure how we're going to release them yet. Whether it's B-sides, or an EP, we don't know yet."

kinda wish they'd pulled a Young Machetes and just thrown 'em all in. the album already kinda has a swansong vibe
