I put on the album, I forget how fun hardcore can be. Reminds me of prime bridge 9 era (2005-8ish) where you had Crime in stereo, Intl. superheroes of Hardcore, and Ruiner just doing fun things

I spoke to the band for loud & quiet, really deep transition for them on this record!

It's not Moonage Daydream nor Cracked Actor, but the fact we got those 2 should allow that not everything has to be on-point perfect. It's just nice to hear / see someone's else assembly of what they see as 'Bowie' now and then

He had him on his podcast for like 4 hours a few weeks before the election. He could have just asked him what he intended to do... But nope they just spoke about UFC or whatever

I see they're called metalcore everywhere online. I never ever made that connection. Interesting

Wow. First This Is Hell, now this. Would you call them metalcore tho?

Mock me, but I get a similar feeling from this as A Winged Victory for the Sullen, Jóhann Jóhannsson, Max Richter etc.

Modern Love should be in top ten, well done on that

I'd rank it really low as an album. I love the single and that's it. But I'll give it another spin one of these days.

I've seen 'Secret Life of Arabia' so many times and I genuinely don't know what song that is. Will have to see what all the fuss is about

Legss - Unreal. Lyrically driven and thoughtful but still punchy art rock

Interesting! I thought it always fell into the 'Mourning of the Magicians' as the inspiration. I won't say I'm going to go to read this to find out. But good to know

Top 3 are locks, everything else could be about 15 other songs
