    This album felt like a softer sound to echo but it has alot of experimentation

    • @cosminxbreakdown
      @cosminxbreakdown 10 месяцев назад +6

      Echo had some really meh songs but all songs from Tether I think they are bangerz

    • @destinwinders1508
      @destinwinders1508 9 месяцев назад +11

      I'll have to disagree their Echo was definitely the superior album this one felt to safe imo

      the album has an extremely ambient atmosphere and i think it totally works

      This album is very poor. Their worst so far imo.

    • @mr.sarcasm6294
      @mr.sarcasm6294 7 месяцев назад

      ​@@RG_Adapt I don't think it's their worst, I like some of the songs on this record, the vibe just doesn't sit with me.

  • @SeventhCircle77
    @SeventhCircle77 10 месяцев назад +31

    I really dig this album. It has a weird twist of older and new experimental stuff.
    Echo feels like the heavier vocal based and this feels more about an uplifting sort of ethereal feeling

  • @olegnevinniy777
    @olegnevinniy777 10 месяцев назад +25

    amazing album. I want to listen to it again and again. The songs are easy to remember and after 2-3 times you are already singing along. I liked that it doesn’t have classic metalcore, but rather has the dark vibe of bands of 90s

  • @rbmmello_13
    @rbmmello_13 10 месяцев назад +17

    bogdan, your analysis about this album was perfect, i feel the same way. it seems like a exploration of the sound we find in fighting gravity.

  • @alexturner493
    @alexturner493 10 месяцев назад +10

    The album didn’t grab me on first listen and didn’t meet my expectations, but I was half asleep when listening. But I’m in love with it now after 3 or 4 listens

  • @COSMICWOLF354
    @COSMICWOLF354 10 месяцев назад +20

    I love this album. I may even rate this higher than Echo. They didn’t need another stupid heavy album (I love stupid heavy don’t get me wrong) and the softer more exploration take in their sound this time around had me like WOW throughout this entire album i fucking love this album!!!!

  • @uniservicemann3186
    @uniservicemann3186 10 месяцев назад +18

    Echo
    I love how mello the vocals on this record are, that alone gives this record its own identity in their catalog. Another solid basic metalcore record for causal listening 🌟
    Indigo is easily my favorite.

  • @nickc5845
    @nickc5845 10 месяцев назад +6

    Been having mainly Enraptured on repeat, then it was Integration, and I can see myself having Into the sun on repeat all month long.

  • @Lego_The_Eggo
    @Lego_The_Eggo 10 месяцев назад +6

    The Flood remains as one of my top favorite albums to this day, the sheer heaviness and emotion put into each song is just breathtaking. As for this album, Eternal Pessimist and Enraptured were pleasant surprises. Into The Sun is my favorite non single, and Indigo is probably my favorite of the singles after listening how it fits in the album overall.

  • @SytianIvanov
    @SytianIvanov 10 месяцев назад +12

    It's not better than Echo, but I've seen many bands fuck up this sound so hard that It's very cool to see someone get It right.

  • @thesaviorofsouls5210
    @thesaviorofsouls5210 9 месяцев назад +1

    I've always been listening on and off to mice and men even long before i started actively listening to metal, but i gotta say what really got me invested in them again was levee and pulling teeth. Has a special place in my mind for some reason, just love the slow rainy build up start going right into the agression on levee.

  • @nikkempe2374
    @nikkempe2374 10 месяцев назад +4

  • @zanderj9335

    I honestly wasn’t hype for the album but after listening they brought the heat. Definitely one of my favorites for this year.

  • @Somavi

    This album was amazing, nothing crazy sound wise yet still delivers so well. Love the experimental aspects and nuances they incorporated.

  • @Nurse_Sean
    @Nurse_Sean 10 месяцев назад +2

    I will be honest I wasn't really sure what to expect with this album but man have I grown to love this album. The whole album is this fantastic introspective and supportive theme. Just a great all around album and love the lyrics and sonics.

  • @thelightyears_
    @thelightyears_ 10 месяцев назад +4

    I completely agree with everything you said. Into The Sun, Tether and Zephyros I thought were particularly good.
    Also is it just me or does the ambience sometimes sound like Invent Animate almost

  • @RobinLeneutre
    @RobinLeneutre 9 месяцев назад +3

    My favorite albums were the two firsts albums when Shayley was still in the band.
    But not gonna lie this new album is the best work they’ve put out since then. Amazing, absolutely amazing 🔥❤️

  • @vixter1_
    @vixter1_ 10 месяцев назад +2

    This record was really different than what theyve made before, loved it
    (Also, my favorite record is Restoring Force by far, if not, also Echo)

  • @carterboggess2372
    @carterboggess2372 9 месяцев назад +2

    Honestly I LOVED this album. It was different then the last couple of albums. And it gives me restoring force vibes and that is my favorite album from there. Aaron’s voice sounds soo good. Love the melodic nature of the music!

  • @eduardoyonathan4414

  • @Le_Vampi
    @Le_Vampi 10 месяцев назад +2

    it's probably echo. I love echo a lot, Tether is too fresh for me to know if I love it more than echo but I like both of these albums a lot.
    edit: ik I made the comment like a day ago lol but I actually already love this album so much, like you said it has a contrast with the chill vocals and heavy instrumentals and tbh I love that so much, I love the chill atmosphere it's so good.
    edit 2. Welp this is now my favorite album, I love all the songs so much, they feel so chill and/or emotional. love the whole atmosphere of this album. I also like the balance, echo was very heavy but it still had a balance of screams and cleans, this album leans into the cleans more and still love it. very beautiful album. tether, Zephyros and indigo are especially my favorite but everything else is good as well.

    I love this album
    Indigo the chorus is amazing and so are the vocal variance.. the heaviness of Eternal Pessimist and Enraptured.. then my favourite “Into the Sun” …
    No, it’s not my favourite of theirs.. but I still love most of the songs and have been listening to them on repeat!!

  • @dramiell2845
    @dramiell2845 10 месяцев назад +4

    OfM&M are really good at keeping their core sound while not making the same record twice.

  • @Archie-xm6ml
    @Archie-xm6ml 10 месяцев назад

    I’d have to go with The Flood. It was the first om&m album I listened to and I never get tired of listening to it 🤘

  • @BornSinners24
    @BornSinners24 9 месяцев назад +1

    I would say Restoring Force since that got me into metalcore
    But on this album I really love the contrast and Aaron’s voice is incredible for the feels on this. I really like this album for what it is even tho people hate OM&M now

  • @AJNunezMusic
    @AJNunezMusic 9 месяцев назад

    There’s something about this album that gives me that mid to late 2010’s metalcore nostalgia. Honestly surprised how much I like it

  • @theunexpectedua
    @theunexpectedua 10 месяцев назад

    The Flood introduced me to the band, and was always my fav, but I recently rediscovered Echo and now I don't really have an answer. The third album, must be a really close contender for #1 too, Restoring Force. I feel as if this album is a straight continuation to Echo, a really good albumz gotta listen to it more.

  • @sweettangoTIMMY
    @sweettangoTIMMY 9 месяцев назад

    My favorite album by them I think is Defy.. I listen to Forever YDG'n and Vertigo so much, absolute staples in their arsenal.

  • @luisrodas297

  • @thesovietdrugdealer.7166
    @thesovietdrugdealer.7166 7 месяцев назад

    So after about a billion listens of this album front to back, I can confidently say it's my favorite album Of Mice and Men have done and possibly my AOTY. It's not crazy or different but it doesn't need to be. It sounds unique enough for it to be an OM&M album and enough to sound different for them and it works so well.

  • @AlistairBooth
    @AlistairBooth 9 месяцев назад

    My favourite album from OM&M is Restoring Forces (especially deluxe edition) and the flood easily

  • @antonmakovetskyi8350
    @antonmakovetskyi8350 10 месяцев назад +1

    After this highlight video, I may go check out this album even though I didn't plan. The singles were rather uninspiring for me. But I can see how it's an 8 👌

  • @qzollo345
    @qzollo345 9 месяцев назад

    I cant wait to see them with Bullet for My Valentine on Friday! My favorite from them would definitely go to The Flood or Defy

  • @maggotsxcl7403
    @maggotsxcl7403 9 месяцев назад

    My all time favorite is the flood and can’t be topped but for Aaron’s Era I’d say Echo but to me all their albums are amazing especially Cold World, it’s definitely a black sheep but super solid and experimental

  • @spacialrevenant7591
    @spacialrevenant7591 9 месяцев назад

    Honestly my reaction is mixed with this one; I *really* don’t like Indigo or Integration, but I love how most of the album feels like a continuation of Echo. Especially with Eternal Pessimist sounding like Obsolete 2.0 and Into The Sun being the younger brother of Fighting Gravity mixed with some of their older stuff ❤

  • @Chizuru94
    @Chizuru94 10 месяцев назад

    Sadly, this is the first album of OM&M where I don't like anything that much (aside from Warpaint and Castaway, mostly). Thought I was maybe crazy, but the majority seems to echo (no pun intended) that. I'm happy if Aaron is just experimenting right now, though and from what I know, the lyrics are really deep on this one again also, despite it not seeming like that on first glance.
    In any case, my absolute favorite album from them is probably Echo, closely followed or tied with Restoring Force (Deluxe)

  • @Shiroh07
    @Shiroh07 10 месяцев назад

  • @jocab564

    Echo by far is my favorite

  • @fadencetv4422
    @fadencetv4422 10 месяцев назад +1

    Actually really enjoyed this album even though it's much the same! I also feel like the album artwork is too similar to echo visually (which feels like it has connotations of being b-sides).

  • @lolfirepoisonftl
    @lolfirepoisonftl 10 месяцев назад +1

    I agree with your take. It's not as good as Echo but I do appreciate that they're exploring and trying something different instead. Not AOTY quality but there are definitely some tracks going in my playlist.

  • @Keverember
    @Keverember 10 месяцев назад +1

  • @midoxbz

    AOTY
    with sylosis new album
    Also ECHO album is one of the best metalcore albums in all time + and he's my AOTY 2021
    and I can easily say that OM&M is the best Metalcore album in all time
    and its my fav band of all time

  • @DudeLoopNoob

  • @ps4masterrace508
    @ps4masterrace508 10 месяцев назад

    For me, OM&M never miss. I'd say Restoring Force: Full Circle is probably my favorite, but there is no bad album for me. One of my favorite bands! 🤘

  • @shades1159
    @shades1159 10 месяцев назад +1

    In my opinion if you look up average in the dictionary you’d see this album cover. I don’t hate it, but apart from a few songs it felt very meh. 7.5/10 for me. My favorite album from them is either Restoring Force or the Flood, can’t really pick between those two.

    They've never made a bad album. But this I have to say ranks last for me. I feel like the guitar and especially drums try REALLY hard to fill the void that each song has. But I do enjoy the overall theme of the album and it's very consistent. Into the Sun and Indigo are the highlights

    @phantomtearsca 10 месяцев назад

    Personally this album didn't do it for me. At the very least compared to Echo which is pretty much a no-skip album, this one feels a bit underwhelming. Not bad by any means but it's just not connecting with me. Also, the mix on this album sounds a little odd to me. Props to Aaron doing all the production and mixing on this album and on Echo, but even compared to Echo this album's production feels a bit lacking.
