their one album without aaron gillespie, ø (disambiguation) is gradually becoming one of my favorite metal albums of all time? i think the build of this song is so powerful:

i agree! i kind of think it's the only record of its kind. can't think of another album where pop, emo, and metalcore meet each other so crisply

i love they're only chasing safety for what it is but i still remember seeing this video on fuse and getting blown away by how textured, dark, and heavy their music had become. the last two minutes of it is practically a deftones song unto itself

"Reinventing Your Exit" was basically a heavier Taking Back Sunday song, lol. I was pretty excited about the following album but kinda lost interest after that.

they did full live performances of define the great line and lost in the sound of separation this year and they've put up the audio on spotify. performance is incredible, i might buy the video though bc it looks awesome?

new album is very much in the mode of their older work but is also substantially different. this is exactly what i've been wanting them to do since lost in the sound of separation
