    Hell yeah! So glad you finally checked this album out. It's one of my all time favorites for sure, absolute perfection 🔥 You'll like the last emotional ones as well on further listens :) They unfortunately only have a few other songs, but they're also worth checking out!
    Keep up the great vids man, cheers!

    Now for Pridelands - Light Bends then \m/
    Didn't expect this but glad you checked it out. Too underrated.
    Maybe you'll do their Cold Sanctuary EP as well. For You makes a lot more sense when paired Damien since they fit together thematically/are about the same topic. RIP Damien

    Just discovered them, and wow! I just listened to their whole discography and its so good
    You should do their EP too, its an absolute journey. The last two tracks are just massive vibes, so good. But the whole thing slaps.

  • @shane_wallace

    Such an incredible record! I can’t believe there are barely any reactions to it. For me this album picks up where The Dark Pool left off since I wasn’t a fan of Heroine

  • @RebelKicks-mn4kc
    @RebelKicks-mn4kc ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Someone mentioned Pridelands - Light Bends, and I’ll second that. Drew if you thought this reminded you of The Dark Pool? Wait til you hear Light Bends. It’s easily one of the best metalcore albums I’ve ever heard, definitely scratched that Thornhill itch when they first released Casanova (I hated that song lol)

    Definitely some impressive guitar work and drums. But personally I prefer more chaotic and technical guitar work from bands like archspire and reflections.
