This is a statement that Andy was the force behind MPE since And Death Said Live. This is a cohesive follow up to Seven, that brilliant Melodic Metal album released in 2020. Great fast melodic riffing, memorable leads and solos, soaring screams that fit the music and great orchestral arrangements that enlarged the spectrum of sound, the epicness while offering a lot more punch to the music. Very good album maybe excellent, more listening sessions will tell, cheers \m/
I’ve already commented here but I need to update that I cannot get enough of this entire album Andy! Hands down my favorite of 2024 and in my top 10 over the last 5 years and there have been A LOT of great albums in that time. Love what you did here brother and literally everything you create is gold.
I really hope this one gets a lot of attention, you're so incredibly underrated, dude. You have your own style, and it's very recognizable and consistent but in a very, very good way, it's that feeling when something makes you nostalgic for something that isn't even tangible. Cheers from Sweden!
I just wanted to add that on the haunting the second long delay between the chorus starting and that melodic guitar kicking in with the kick drum is genius, it makes it so much more impactful.
Thanks so much for noticing details like that, yeah it's a really interesting and unique chorus, it almost throws you off but I'm always trying to keep things fresh and interesting! Cheers :)
I'm not crying, you crying. Man, waited for this album since first crumbs from insta and here it is. And it's worth it baby, what a masterpiece. Exilium just a killer, what a song, fucking hell!
Holy smokes this is amazing! Every single track is just so damn good, Andy you are a massive inspiration to me. Thank you for making such awesome music dude ❤❤🤘
I'm absolutely thrilled with this album! The guitars and solos are incredible, the lyrics are magnificent, and your powerful voice ties it all together. Thank you so much for this amazing work!
First listenning, some "The Unborn" references in the middle of the album. The Andy Gillion personnality is there. I liked Neverafter so much. Glad you learned to sing and scream, it is an awesome addition to your gifted skills. Need some more listennings because the album is so good and I can't decide wich song is my favorite :) And the drums are sooooo good ! Congrats to Dave :)
I'm usually someone who hypes myself up to much for a new release that I always walk away disappointed. This is one of the best albums i've ever heard in my life. Thanks Andy
Absolutely kickass this one. Can't stop listening to it. Acceptance brings me to tears every time i hear the tapping riff. Love you dude, hope this album gets you a bigger following.
This album is so incredible, it's difficult to find them, that I listen front to back without skipping! Thank you for filling that void after the unexpected departure from Mors... And the title track "Exilium", that is beautiful man!
Only 4 songs in at the minute but it's album of the year without a doubt. It's like you managed to climb into my brain and write the exact music I want to hear. Excellent work mate, should be proud of yourself!
Okay dude.... Just got to the break in "Avenging The Fallen" @18:28 SO fucking epic! Loving the album so far. Congrats on the release and I hope this album has bought you some well deserved catharsis and closure. Amazing work 🤩🙌
I loved your work in MPE, then you mesmerized me with Neverafter and now you unleashed this beast. Seems like you'll never cease to amaze me Andy, keep it up.
Энди, это шедевр!!! У меня мурашки по телу! Как я давно ждал этого альбома!!! У тебя красивейший вокал! Музыка просто кайф!!! Неужели ты один на всех инструментах сыграл? Лучший альбом года!!!! Спасибо! И Бритни ещё украсила альбом! Супер!!!!!!
Andy Gillion my best friend in music & greatest musician ever congratulations 🎈🎉🍾🎊 on the new album 💿 you rock the album rocks & keep playing & shredding always & looking forward to the next album & albums to come!
Heard the álbum toda y and you never dissapoint Andy..... And now singing! Total success. Congrats. You Just showed me the way. Thanks for such a great album
Andy, this album is such a banger. Your level of creativity and skill always impress me over and over again. You sir are fantastic and a huge inspiration for a fellow guitarist and creative person. Thank you for sharing your incredible art with us. ❤
What a beast of an album Andy. Not only have you crushed the guitar and songwriting as usual, your vocals are excellent! Awesome work by Brittney and Dave on drums.
Thank you Andy from the deep of my hearth for your music ! My the most favourite one from the album is Avenging the Fallen and Prophecy. Guitars are out of this world as usual in your work but a big thumbs up for your work on vocals - you sound like you can sing your whole life. Keep your hard work I dare to say that your music is an inspiration and spirit-raiser :)
This sounds so awesome when I'm stoned and I bet this dude doesn't even smoke weed....... This and 1349's The Wolf and the King are my favorites this year so far.......
100/10❤ Mr. Andy (sorry don't know your middle name) Billion! How dare you to create this! Awesomeness! Filthy incredible! Masterly played and insanely recorded Music! I bet my Spotify account (if I had one) would marked this album "the most listened to album of the year". Well fuqin done! Don't have enough words to describe the feelings Ive went through listening to the music, but I'm sure in a moment there were some ninjas chopping onion around.. Thank you for this experience! ❤❤❤
This proves you wrote the entire Seven album. Amazing as always
There was no doubt he wrote all 4, 5, 6, and 7. Andy is one of the most criminally underrated musicians and guitarists!
Thanks for the music brother, this is great. You're an insane musician, all the best.
Wow, thank you SO MUCH! 🙏🤘
Unbelievable as always! Sharing this with everyone. The metal community must recognize this!
Thanks for spreading the word dude!
Thank you Andy for this early christmas gift, what a great album, avenging the fallen is my favorite song, cheers from switzerland🎉
Merry Christmas Luca!
Andy! My brother, no words to say, just amazing, love your music 🎶🎵❤.
Thank you!

Acceptance is an absolute masterpiece. Chills down my spine, goosebumps everywhere. This couldn't have come at a better time. Cheers!
Thank you 🙏 Reading this gave me chills too :) always a pleasure to connect through music
I really hope this one gets a lot of attention, you're so incredibly underrated, dude. You have your own style, and it's very recognizable and consistent but in a very, very good way, it's that feeling when something makes you nostalgic for something that isn't even tangible. Cheers from Sweden!
Согласен. Энди - великий музыкант. Он очень недооценён. Альбом шедевр!
