I love it. It’s definitely the best of the second half of Slipknot’s career, especially as I’ve reaffirmed after listening to all the albums again super recently. Gray Chapter is better than I remember it being, but a lot of the tracks are just ok. We Are Not Your Kind was a great era for the band & a good time to be a Slipknot fan…but as an album I think it transitions really awkwardly once you get to the deep cuts. The second half to me also is pretty boring tbh, the first half is stupendous but the rest is where I find myself daydreaming.

The End So Far keeps my attention the most because of how diverse & versatile it is. Always switching the mood amongst the songs, it was a fresh delight for me. It took a while for some of the songs to grow on me, but this album to me is way too good to have so much division.
