While I can see why some people might not be all in on this album, the truth is, it is EXACTLY what lifelong BFMV fans have been asking for! SO raw. Heavy. Fat solos! The mastering is incredible. Drum work is off the charts. To those who don’t like it, I say listen to it front to back with some quality headphones or at maximum volume over some speakers. This shit is epic. Long live Bullet 💪🏻

good music just slightly unoriginal i think for 2021 those riffs and solos sound straight ripped from an aild album they had some cool hardcore influences here and their and some cool bass and drum ideas its still a good album just sounds a bit old school like ive heard it before, then again this is the sound i enjoyed growing up so i cant say i hate it

The record is very diversify. One of their best work to date. Well done Bullet 🤘👏

Well venom is one of my favorite albums of all time. Simply because it got me into music with screaming vocals. I had already been a fan of a couple of 80’s thrash bands and bands like avenged sevenfold. But when venom dropped it opened the doors for so much good music and it will forever hold that special place in my heart for that. However, I think they might have topped it for me. What an amazing experience.

This album bought me back into loving this band again, my only problem with it, as much as it's a solid album, it still lacks something innovative apart from fun rhytm switches. If you ask me they were pretty much groundbreaking back on The Poison and very playful with melodies and leads. I couldn't believe how much Can't Escape The Waves (fav Bullet track in years) was simple ,guitar wise, but maybe WSS just set the bar too high for me, those guys are blowing me away with their musical evolution, Bullet just made something that was expected from them years before. 8/10 from me Whitechapel is still the contender for AOTY in my opinion.

This album tops Scream Aim Fire for me. Even The Poison sometimes. I know The Poison will always be number 1 because of the context when it came out, but it has still songs that aren't so good after 16 years. It's still freaking epic tho, and the most creative album they wrote, i guess it will be forever. Now I really liked Venom, it was a huge improvement after Fever (i find it meh) and Temper Temper (i find it awful like wtf, it is really really bad) but it lacked something, some songs are really good, others are completely forgettable. Gravity is kinda living on its own, like another dimension, they tried something and i think they still did a good job with it, it's not really memorable but it's clearly not as bad as people want to make it look. The thing with this album and how it works so well is that you can feeling the flow out of it. It feels natural and spontaneous unlike Venom. They didn't try to make more songs just to make more songs. It feels honest and raw. Pure energy translated into heavy direct punchy metalcore songs. Just like The Poison it has this energy. FINALLY. It won't ever be as legendary as The Poison because honestly no album from BFMV can at this point but it certainly can be counted as one of their best, hands down. Congrats to them

In fact, I haven't be surprised at all. Good points : the solos are pretty cool and "The Reverie" is a good song.

to the hellfire has bad mixing if you are used to typical metalcore mixing. For deathcore that leans more on the traditional blackened death metal (besides from the breakdowns obviously) the production is top notch.

They like the insturments to all blend together like a spicy soup, and they do a great job

I do not have any problem with the production quality of the album, it sounds really good to me. I've seen lots of people arguing on the internet about the production of the album, but it doesn't seem bad to me. As for the vocals, Matt can't scream and sing the way he used back in The Poison era, he had a throat surgery because he had forced his voice way too much and he screwed it up. This is his new screaming technique which is much healthier for.his voice. And I don't mind it at all. I'd argue that this album has that Bullet sound. I mean, they've gone through lots of musical changes, but they've somehow managed to keep their DNA
