    As a die hard fan who struggled a lot with the last 2 albums, im incredibly happy with how this album turned out. This probably just needs to be their sound going forward now.

    Finally man. As an oldschool Asking Alexandria fan, the song Let the Dead Take Me was like my guilty pleasure. I'm having incredible fun. Yes, the na na parts may be unnecessary, but it never feels like the song Down to Hell. but my main favorite piece is things could be different

    I really feel like people unfairly hate on AA no matter what they do in recent years. The heaviness on this album doesn't sound too forced and the more melodic parts are well written. Things Could be Different totally has some modern Northlane inspiration which is unexpectedly cool. As a whole it's definitely nothing groundbreaking and very much falls in line with a Bad Omens type sound, but it has some cool moments and is a nice easy listen. Solid 7.5/10

    Their best record since AA5 by far. I enjoyed SWOTI and LAHOF a mixed bag for me, but this is great. I'm happy that you at least gave it a chance, because a lot won't. A problem I have with the album itself is the tracklisting arrangement. It just seems super weird to me.

    asking alexandria was the first metalcore band i ever heard back in 2016, my friends were introducing me into numetal and hard rock, today death/metalcore are my favorite genres and i became a independent musician doing some experimental screamo shit

    I'm glad you gave it a chance. I genuinely loved this album. I saw them live on Tuesday and Danny honestly sounded incredible. His screams were incredible, and I got most, if not all of his screams on video, esp the entirety of A Prophecy and The Final Episode. His vocal coach was there and he credited him for helping him to be able to scream for everyone again. The whole band sounded incredible, the energy was insane, and they all seemed genuinely happy and excited to perform for everyone. It was like my eras tour lol. It was easily top 3 best concerts i've ever been to. Up there with my Spiritbox concert.

    I loved them since the final episode, it was weird to a teenager in Morocco to hear this kind of music but I had fun and memories with this band, and always waiting them to be heavier but theyre getting softer album after album, I wish they could release at least two last heavy Sh before I lost my desire for music forever, I know that danny has voice problems but that would be only digital songs I don't ask him to perform them on stage if he afraid to lost his vocal cords.

    To me, their recent work including this is some of their best stuff. Ive moved on from their old stuff and I understand that theyre not moving towards that anymore, theyre doing a BMTH sort of thing where they arent going back to their old stuff but creating intersting stuff that includes elements of it.

    Is it the same metalcore weve heard back in 2016? No. Does it need to be no? The problem with fans is sometimes they hold too hard on nostalgia and can't accept that new members join into bands and they begin experimenting new styles that suit the new members. It took about two albums, but I really feel they nailed it here and produced a fantastic album that they can be proud of.

  • @CartmanRobin
    @CartmanRobin ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I was surprised by how much i liked that album.
    Weakest songs were ‚Let The Dead Take Me‘ and ‚Kill It With Fire‘
    My highlights were ‚Let Go‘ and ‚Holding On To Something More‘
    The previous one was ok
    LAHOF was better than I thought, but compared to their other stuff it was quite bad.
    I feel like this one is the spiritual successor to the Self Titled sound wise.

    I actually kinda disliked this one. Not hate at all, I like a few of the songs, but think some are pretty grating to listen to (for example Bad Blood). I think a lot of songs have some good song writing but as a whole album it does not come together all that well.
    Things could be different and Let Go are my favourites probably. Still looking forward to what they might do in the future.
