    • @Ghoulerie
      @Ghoulerie Год назад +1

      That is so cool!! I just recently found this band and would give anything to see them at a basement show. I am so into their sound and I bet seeing them live was so genuine.

      @roacheat335 Год назад +4

      ​@@Ghoulerie sadly, you will never hear anything as good as this album with whatever they put out for the future, and if you see them live hoping for them to maybe play at least one song from this album, you better dreaming about it than even hoping for it + to make everything even more good, frontmane a not so good guy that cant take actual criticism and calls their fans a bunch of teenagers who dont want changes.
      I highly recommend you listening to greatest hit and all their old stuff, if you like their new stuff, good for ya mane, just sad to see them fall into that kind of stuff.
      Oh and now that i remember, they kicked off the drummer from this album for absolutely no reason, even tho it was their best drummer they ever had.
      Just bad decision after bad decision, its really sad to see them fall of sad bad, especially that even tho they did fell off i still consider them my fav band, just cant handle them anymore

    • @SanTVigil
      @SanTVigil Год назад +1

      @@roacheat335 def not for no reason, tons of shit going on during tour that justify the kick, and changing your sound as you mature is GOING TO HAPPEN, you have to keep in mind Erik was literally like 16 when he started this band, of course their taste is going to evolve and change, each album has done exactly this so its expected of the band.
      I know Erik and dudes definitely not a bad dude by any means, you're gonna piss people off the more noise you make for yourself, its a given.

    This record is fun, creative, and definitely deserving of an 8. I didn't really notice any problems with the mixing or syncopation while listening but even if there is, there were a bunch of indie rock records in the 90s that had bad mixings and they're still praised. It's b/c at the end of the day it comes down to the SONGS, which are great on this album.

  • @jessechuff
    @jessechuff 7 лет назад +10

    honestly I think the points where the guitar and drums don't line up perfectly are nice because it feels more natural, more raw, and less calculated which I think this album heavily benefits from. I do agree with most of your points tho, it's an 8/10 for me

    Hello, I'm having a really hard time with cartridge alignment. My turntable is the Audio-Technica ATLP120. I have the Audio-Technica AT100E cartridge. I'm trying to align this cartridge with the Loefgren B protractor. I can't seem to get the cartridge square and every time I think I do it either doesn't look right on the other grid or I'm a bit paranoid and think it's out of line in one area. I just can't seem to get it right no matter which protractor I use. I need help. Can someone please point me in the right direction? Is there a good video out there explaining this? Anything at all? Thanks in advance.

    Idk melon, I can appreciate that you have high standards for emo revival but I would argue that, as artists, musicians should feel free to express themselves in the ways that they see fit. That's not to say that they shouldn't push themselves and continue to grow as musicians, but I don't think there's anything inherently wrong with sounding like generic emo if it comes from a place of catharsis and/or authenticity. You may have already addressed this perspective before, but that's just me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    I'm not sure what you are talking about with the production. The album was mixed by Jack Shirley, who has done work for Deafheaven and Loma Prieta. I think his muddier production style went well with the album, so I am surprised you didn't like it since you like a lot of noise rock.
