I enjoyed it but I feel like the hype and time it took to be a reality made it worse when you take into account that 4 songs were released previously, there were 2 interludes a 3-minute intro and a VIP. "take that" and "black water" are good but "take that" is labeled as a bonus track so "blackwater" was honestly the only very new thing and my favorite.
Favorite album of the year, no question. Something about the whole package just scratches an itch no other bass music can. There’s just something so compelling about these two guys putting their heart and soul into a project with such raw sincerity that any small flaws in the execution don’t matter. Every cut is novel and enjoyable in its own right, and few albums this year have left as big an impact on me. Is it perfect? No. Does it matter? Hell no. It’s loud, it’s bombastic, it’s a tad janky here and there, but it’s all so genuine and well-produced that it keeps me enthralled every time. Give me this any day over the umpteenth samey-sounding riddim EP I’ll forget in two days. Hard to pick a favorite between Blackwater, Overkill, and… contentious pick, but Jungle Fury. Dunk on me for it all you want, but the psytrance drop is one of my favorite drops of the year. Call it a guilty pleasure.
TheBlenderman great to see someone enjoying it so much, and I can definitely side with you on it being a great change from the majority of Dubstep we get today. Definitely ambitious I’ll give it that
So true i can put aside a lot of imperfections due to hearing the real soul and passion put into this music. Though i have been following RIOT for many years now so its hard to say how much i give them for already being a fanboy. This combined with knowing they were busy touring all year i can put a lot of flaws off but damn do they put on one hell of a live show
@@Nawtystep Well, the way it gives a completely different vibe to the song when it kicks in. Gives off a wonderful energy. Also, the subtle hints that it's coming earlier in the track.
This album is amazing and can't really agree on you negative points, but highly underline your positives^^ #10 Overture 1900 5/10 (isn't really a track, but still cool) #9 Desert to Desert (Interlude) 5/10 #8 Last Stand (Interlude) 5.5/10 #7 Take That 6/10 (Would be higher, if the voice wouldn't be so pitched up) #6 Blackwater 8.7/10 drop has too little energy #5 Disorder (Rebirth) 9/10 IT'S TIME FOR DRUM & BASS! #4 Jungle Fury 9.7/10 #3 Aiwa 9.8 #2 The Mob 10/10 #1 Overkill 10/10 This album is just a beast.
10/10 album for me (yeah I disagree with you in all you said in this video lol). My favorite album of all time and literally my favorite track of all time "Overkill".
I’m starting to realize that our tastes really are very different. The drops you weren’t impressed with (jungle fury psytrance, overkill, disorder dnb) I’m huge on. And the mob is probably my least favorite full track here, the melody is really cheesy and the drops feel very preset-ey and generic imo. At least we agree on aiwa lol, total banger of a track, probably my second favorite on the album.
The Big Finicheti that’s interesting, and probably the best thing coz we can show each other our own perspectives :) re the ones you enjoy, I’m all for energy and wildness but if it doesn’t work sonically I’m out. Also me enjoying The Mob is almost purely out of love for 2016 Brostep, so the preset thing makes sense for sure
I enjoyed this album quite a bit! I found all of the tracks to be really fun tunes, just a very consistent listen throughout. I also enjoy the story-telling aspects of it (even though We_Are_Dust did it better). I think this kind of high energy, personality filled dubstep/brostep is what we need more of right now. Definitely a guilty pleasure album for me. (8/10)
andocalrisian1 would agree we need more stuff as ambitious as this, but you can’t just try stuff out for the sake of it and hope it works. Doesn’t work like that
I think this did the storytelling better than We Are Dust by a mile, but they both did it pretty well. This and Unstoppable EP by Teminite are my two favorite EDM albums of all time, and I still can’t decide which one I like better.
Idk why every song has to go in a certain direction all the time , I never understood why people use that as criticism, like I personally don’t mind if the song doesn’t take me off my seat , it’s just the way the song was made . Idk maybe I’m just too easily pleased
Uglynerd I suppose by ‘take me off my seat’ I mean I’m not impressed by it, it’s not making me wanna go back to it, not necessarily to do with its direction, could go in any one at all but it doesn’t captivate me
Lol. I've listened to disorder many many times so I wasn't really listening there so when she said that and the dnb basses came in I actually said "oh shit!" out loud with nobody around me. I suspect it was more fan service than anything but I'm sure it can be quite confusing for first time listeners.
I thought it was a pretty solid album overall. My favorite was probably The Mob, because I just love the complexity of the drops on that one. I also appreciate the storytelling aspect, and the fact that it’s not just 10 disconnected tracks. The songs all feel like they have to do with each other. The only thing I would have changed would be removing Take That from the album. I get that they tried to make an unexpected celebratory end, but it just didn’t really work in my opinion. The whole album would make a lot more sense to me if it just ended with Overkill.
I enjoyed a few tunes off this album but mostly I'm disappointed that almost every song on here that's not an interlude has been released previously, and more over are usually better as a single.
@@Nawtystep Overkill remains my fav tune by RIOT atm, and I also liked Blackwater. Most likely won't be coming back to this record in particular tho. I've always been hardcore boi, and while I appreciate what he's going for terms of genre fusion, the execution could be way better.
I love this album, one of the best of all time. It’s great overall, but the only two that really shocked me at how good they were were Overkill and Aiwa. Overkill had an awesome first drop and an even better off-drop, and Aiwa had an epic first drop that made me headbang, and then the second drop...just...wow. Just wow. Pure perfection in song form.
bit late to the party but nevertheless i feel the need to comment, i agree mostly apart from ur take on overkill, the lack of direction in my eyes comes from the fact the track constantly evolves and develops to the point where it is "overkill"
I'm 13 and I love dubstep and I don't know about details and stuff because I only judges with the beats. For me my top 3 music is 3: Overkill 2: Blackwater (the second one is so good for me) 1: Jungle Fury (the Pysteance always gets me) (Correct my spelling mistakes because I'm from Mongolian so I don't know how to spell some things)
Wow, now thats scary Ive been listening almost exclusively to teminite for the last year and now that i check out a review of something else i like im beeing told to go back to temmie o_O
Myro CS Teminite is an awesome producer, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try something new as well. Some similar artists to Teminite are chime and Oliverse. Check them out if you want
@@carcrazycanuk7468 I know and i do check out other producers but almost all of their songs become boring after a while. Something that just doesnt happen with Teminite (except for a few) Although i gotta say that riot is almost there too
I really liked this album, 9.5/10 for me. The downs I had is that they didn’t really introduce new songs which was a tad bit disappointing but overall the rest of the album I found to be very thrilling and fun. I liked how the interludes tie some of the songs together, and I loved the bonus track because it was hilarious. So far, this is my #1 LP. Second being The City of Oz and third being The Promised Lands.
yeah, a lot of the drops could have been better and more creative, but it bangs pretty good, and the intros, outros, and verse sections for most of the album are really fun. Aiwa was my fave, but The Mob definitely gives me like Outbreak era Zomboy vibes so i dig that, and i actually like the metal in Overkill, i think the metalstep parts were more interesting that the drops.
Thanks for providing a great and an objective analysis, i personally love this album and find it really interesting in terms of originality and experimentation, I absolutely love the outcome and each tracks all works together and that ´s fantastic, Cant choose my favorite between them because they got good points and bad points, but i ´ll go with « the mob »
3 main points about the album: 1: WHY wouldn’t they open with Disorder Rebirth, after the overture? Like maybe the plot has something to do with that but after “it’s time to light up the sky with fire,” the huge explosion from that song would be far more suited than the slow increase in volume from Jungle Fury. 2: Blackwater has one of my favorite dubstep intros of ALL TIME hands down, but the drop doesn’t even come close to living up to the tension that’s built. Pretty disappointed that it was the only *new* dubstep song on the album. 3: I hate this “building a world” argument everyone is making. Like sure they did, but I find that the instrumental world Xilent created on We Are Dust is far more breathable and beautiful than that of “Dogma Resistance.” Just opinions- any thoughts Nawty?
Sure an artist can display clear ambition with their music, all for that (talking about this world building thing). But if it isn’t backed up with ideas and execution then that whole motive doesn’t really have any legs, and falls pretty flat
and here, given nawty's review of an album i absolutely adore, is where i see the venn diagram of things i like and things nawty likes that's extremely important if i know what a critic responds to, then i can frame their critique in comparison to what i like i'm constantly thinking about videogamedunkey's video "Game Critics" and his point that a single critic has a single POV and you have to take that into account am i going to burn nawty at the stake because he doesn't like what i like? of course not. (i'm not Y̶O̶O̶K̶i̶E̶ some twitter dj with a fragile ego ) am i going to take his POV completely when i listen to bass music? absolutely not. am i going to consider his takes and use those to refine my own taste? absolutely.
Overkill is my favourite of the track for sure My 2nd favourite track is Disorder (Rebirth). The last part of the 1st drop got a lot of bass and start with a lot pf power. Sadly the Drum&Bass drop sucks a bit and can be better, but my favourite part is the end lol
Blackwater is the name of a private military contracting hired by the US government. Along with titles like "the Mob" and "disorder" and the album title itself, could this have a very low key political theme? But then again, he's not based in the US, so maybe not..
Toby Weber they are based in Israel though. So yes I think there are almost definitely some strong political undertones on this LP. I recommend watching Landon’s review for a good take on that
Pretty hilarious that you recommended teminite considering teminite and riot are my top 2 favorite artists. They seem to be the only artists that are making more complex dubstep who are able to hold my attention through the whole drop *cough everyone in never say die except soltan *cough. Also the synth/guitar duet at the end of take that is very teminite.
andocalrisian1 none of the sub genres that have thrived exclusively in united states, really appeal, nor resemble any of what the word «dub» represents.

What did you guys make of 'Dogma Resistance'? Do you have a favourite track from the 10? Let me know in the comments! 🖤
I enjoyed it but I feel like the hype and time it took to be a reality made it worse when you take into account that 4 songs were released previously, there were 2 interludes a 3-minute intro and a VIP. "take that" and "black water" are good but "take that" is labeled as a bonus track so "blackwater" was honestly the only very new thing and my favorite.
as of now, overkill is my #8 song of all time lmao, it's most definitely a masterpiece imo. aiwa and jungle fury were my two other favorites though
Probably All Of Them Cuz Of Interludes, Hard Dubstep, And Funky Disco..
Overkill for me was the least underwhelming, so it's my favorite.
Aiwa was definitely the best, that second drop tho
Favorite album of the year, no question. Something about the whole package just scratches an itch no other bass music can. There’s just something so compelling about these two guys putting their heart and soul into a project with such raw sincerity that any small flaws in the execution don’t matter. Every cut is novel and enjoyable in its own right, and few albums this year have left as big an impact on me. Is it perfect? No. Does it matter? Hell no.
It’s loud, it’s bombastic, it’s a tad janky here and there, but it’s all so genuine and well-produced that it keeps me enthralled every time. Give me this any day over the umpteenth samey-sounding riddim EP I’ll forget in two days.
Hard to pick a favorite between Blackwater, Overkill, and… contentious pick, but Jungle Fury. Dunk on me for it all you want, but the psytrance drop is one of my favorite drops of the year. Call it a guilty pleasure.

This combined with knowing they were busy touring all year i can put a lot of flaws off but damn do they put on one hell of a live show
Riot have the power to start a dubstep renaissance, mark my words.
Personally, I loved the psytrance part in Jungle Fury. In fact, I wish it lasted longer.
Tomiply fair enough man. What would you say you enjoy about it?
@@Nawtystep Well, the way it gives a completely different vibe to the song when it kicks in. Gives off a wonderful energy. Also, the subtle hints that it's coming earlier in the track.
@@Tomiply It reminds me a lot of Infected Mushrooms music
5:48 Dude looks miserable while I go crazy
Master3530 hahah yes unfortunately as wild as that sequence is, sonically it’s a mess
I pretty much had a seizure when this drop hit and this man looks like a child who just ate broccoli
That part is epic
@@Nawtystep bruh wtf sonically its fucking sick
This album is amazing and can't really agree on you negative points, but highly underline your positives^^
#10 Overture 1900 5/10 (isn't really a track, but still cool)
#9 Desert to Desert (Interlude) 5/10
#8 Last Stand (Interlude) 5.5/10
#7 Take That 6/10 (Would be higher, if the voice wouldn't be so pitched up)
#6 Blackwater 8.7/10 drop has too little energy

#2 The Mob 10/10
#1 Overkill 10/10
This album is just a beast.
McGrey fair enough man, we all got our different tastes! Glad you enjoyed it so much :)
Aiwa and Overkill are immortal songs imo. Been coming back to both tracks for over a year now and they haven't worn off on me as much as others have.

10/10 album for me (yeah I disagree with you in all you said in this video lol). My favorite album of all time and literally my favorite track of all time "Overkill".

Say what you want about the LP, the electric guitar after the first drop in Overkill is flawless
Disorder (Rebirth) is essentially a VIP of their track Disorder
That's literally what it is
But worse
They took away half the song
I enjoyed a few tunes off this album but mostly I'm disappointed that almost every song on here that's not an interlude has been released previously, and more over are usually better as a single.

In terms of sound design jungle fury is better. Since both of the drops have more to offer. But that's my opinion
