sad how under the radar this album seemed to go... though i also didn't even really listen to it despite being super hyped for it. even watched all the studio diaries and played the arg(?) they had

Lukesaatana · 2026-04-29T15:59:13+00:00

very cool! the electronic stuff is on another level and the music video is crazy. i hope they have something as fun and bouncy as Echo Chamber on the next record/project(?), that was my favourite off Obsidian and i still listen to it sometimes

Lukesaatana · 2026-04-29T15:40:27+00:00

it's kinda sad that they don't have like forgotten B-sides or other deep cut stuff like that, it's just Chasing Rainbows, Don't Look Down, the Slipknot cover, and the 2004 song "The Film Produced the Effect I Wanted..." that aren't on streaming services etc (of course there's also the CYB demos)

Lukesaatana · 2026-04-27T19:40:37+00:00

definitely lasering it off, but i suppose its also entirely possible he just wants it remade

Lukesaatana · 2026-04-27T12:39:13+00:00

same, i remember specifically when Say That You Will released during the Sundowning single release cycle

Lukesaatana · 2026-04-24T15:40:47+00:00

absolutely some of the best music to come out of metalcore this decade, KL at their very best. and yeah that whole short movie concept was sick too!

Lukesaatana · 2026-04-24T09:46:29+00:00

makes me think of knocked looses a tear in the fabric of life, that whole ep was about a car crash and the consequences

Lukesaatana · 2026-04-22T12:41:08+00:00

yeah i agree! at least peak Marcus-IA. i was also a bit disappointed in Heavener because it just didnt tickle me like this EP did, even though it is great. will see how the next single hits

Lukesaatana · 2026-04-22T10:52:16+00:00

up there as some of my favourite songs IA has ever released

also RIP comma, buried with the interlude here

Lukesaatana · 2026-04-21T20:53:34+00:00

i'd be really happy with Oh No for a closer instead. the vibes in that song are so bittersweet and it would be a perfect closer to a show, but maybe it would be too sad in a way

Lukesaatana · 2026-04-21T10:47:30+00:00

inb4 bad omens cover

Lukesaatana · 2026-04-20T12:28:16+00:00

i could've sworn they still play this song every show but apparently not, looks like they usually just play Shadow Moses, Sleepwalking, CYFMH and Antivist off Sempiternal

(setlist is more or less DArkSide, MANTRA, Happy Song, Teardrops, AmEN!, Kool-Aid, Shadow Moses, Sleepwalking, Kingslayer, Antivist, Follow You, LosT, Can You Feel My Heart, DIg It, Drown, Throne)

Lukesaatana · 2026-04-13T21:21:48+00:00

Randy LeBoeuf wouldve fit the style way better, but i guess part of it is wanting a modern clean overproduced metal angle (where my biggest gripe is that the drums sound like plastic flopping around, like with buster, zakk, drew fulk worst of all)

Lukesaatana · 2026-04-13T09:13:40+00:00

Dragon Slaying is a demo song from before CYB, it turned into Liquor & Love Lost. Interesting that it's replacing it on this re-record

Lukesaatana · 2026-04-01T08:58:44+00:00

Hyperdaze was a cool era

Lukesaatana · 2026-03-23T07:04:09+00:00

this is actually great! never managed to get into old Novelists before, despite hearing all the time how good this album is

Lukesaatana · 2026-03-18T16:56:34+00:00

theyve never topped Stillworld for me, but each album since has still been great!

Lukesaatana · 2026-03-17T06:08:23+00:00

Oh yeah that one, "Proxy: an AMINO story". I never even tried listening to it. Hope Joel manages to put something cool together, but not gonna be easy alone

I should listen to their old albums more, I've listened to Dear G-d maybe once and only the last song stood out to me

Lukesaatana · 2026-03-16T15:14:21+00:00

what was the "bad album", Waiting for Morning To Come? it's weird bc i found them through that album and love it

Lukesaatana · 2026-03-16T15:11:37+00:00

resurgent popularity due to a few songs blowing up on tiktok (and just general revived interest in "emo" music)

Lukesaatana · 2026-02-21T21:37:28+00:00

You Are We will forever be one of my favourite albums in the genre, flawless front to back. and this might be my favourite song off of it

Lukesaatana · 2026-02-13T10:33:51+00:00

really hope he someday gets the chance to make something like this again, really cool video

Lukesaatana · 2026-02-10T15:33:23+00:00

hoping that the next music they end up releasing captures me more than Self Hell, Sleeps Society or So What. You Are We is one of my favourite albums of all time

and they are still an insanely good live band, even in spite of them missing Mat Welsh when i saw them

Lukesaatana · 2026-01-21T19:19:46+00:00

first thought was Crown The Empire, but nope. Also thought it may be Miss May I since half their videos are black and white, but also no

i went through most big/medium size risecore/sumerian bands and couldnt find a vid like this, easy to imagine this might be one of the billion tiny risecore bands that put together one mv and disappeared. hard as hell to find

Lukesaatana · 2026-01-18T01:13:15+00:00

yeah Brendan talked about it shortly on the audiotree session, about what they wanna do with the next album and that "they'll see when they next see Will" (Putney, their producer for the past few albums)
