It's a grower. Some good hooks but is it me or is this record brick-walled to death? Pretty disappointing since the music often blurs into a flat mush.
Song wise it feels like a slight throwback to the pre-Witching Hour period. This could have come out after Light & Magic

this.
I have tried several times to give this a whole listen through, but its just way too painful.
hopefully its just the digital promo, and things are better on release, as this album sounds really bad.
shame, there are some cracking songs hidden in there.

I know "it's thematically appropriate" is a cop-out but in this case it is kind of thematically appropriate

fwiw the best track here is "deadzone," up there with "silent shout" in terms of songs that embody/address trauma

Saw them live the other day and they were excellent. Sound was really beefed up, might have been the venue maybe, but they were really powerful.
