Took me three years to get into it. Tried listening to it multiple times and I always brushed it off because of how heavy the album was.

Good lord, this might be one of the heaviest, filthiest and most disturbing songs i have ever heard. The guitar/bass tone in the middle part is just something else. Such an outstanding album.

[@Metabolica1]

You can tell these guys are really influenced by Sunbather. Both from the beginning of this song and from the "What would you do of you weren't afraid?" conversation in Two Way Mirror. Sounds super reminiscent of the "I want to dream" conversation in Dream House by Deafheaven. Its tight tho. A great band taking pages from the book of another great band.

[@ethangibbs3688]

Dude right?! I was thinking the exact same thing. That intro is so "Sunbather". Very blackgaze-ish

[@ReprogrammedToHate]

Pitchfork classified this album as "the Sunbather of Metalcore" because Sunbather was a musical and commercial breakthrough within Black Metal, the way is I Let It In within Metalcore

[@alphasierrabravo5905]

thank you for this find/insight! interesting observation in the lyrics

[@2030FNSM]

I have a pretty good feeling that this song is a metaphor for anxiety. The title says it itself, however I love that it takes us through some of the stages. For instance, the beginning of the song it’s the heaviest part of the whole song, and even the whole album. Then, the near the end of the middle part, it is not as fast paced and heavy as the beginning or the beginning of the middle part, and it even feels like it takes a while to finish, symbolizing how anxiety tend to cool down and settle. The settling part is heavily concentrated within the end, where its peaceful and calming, just like how people, like me, who have anxiety feel like when it’s gone. It shows that in the end, everything will be okay. This song is perfect
