Spiritbox has a way of making music that makes you have to listen more than once, and I don't mean in a bad way but it takes more than one listen to really gather everything they did together. Almost like you have to listen to the song for each member. They are so talented and mesh so well together and Sam's part really put a bow on this song. They are incredible and I can't wait to see them live.

[@ensco7]

So true. I mostly instantly know if there's potential for me to really like a song, but with Spiritbox it's usually a "I don't get it, it's too chaotic but I'm intrigued" and then proceeding to listen to the song several times before getting addicted for months or maybe even years, we'll see.

[@psychedelicficiton3362]

[@davidstanley9543]

So glad that Courtney and Mike created Spiritbox after leaving iwrestledabearonce. This is probably going to be my top album of the year. So fresh and intense! The melodies with the heaviness is perfection.

[@metaloreossecondchannel2821]

Definitely but for me my top 3 albums of the year so far 1.) Slaughter To Prevail-Kostolom 2.) Spiritbox-Eternal Blue 3.) Iron Maiden-Senjutsu

I have to say that "The Summit" is my new favourite song by them. It is truly beautiful and I do not know if it has received the praise it deserves.

Love how much time Sam was given on this song normally on features they come in for like a verse or something but he was utilised alot , such a iconic voice within the genre.

[@Knowonselph]

Sam makes every chorus amazing

[@kwansu2195]

The production on this album is A+

[@gatling216]

That ambient leadout was pure NIN and I loved it.

[@austinxwade]

[@tystunes569]

Great song. Love that chorus, it’s catchy and has so much power behind it.

[@19claudio]

Great song and stunning album. And the link between Hurt you and Yellowjacket is a thing of beauty; probably one of my favorite moments of the whole album.

[@AOPrinciple]

What's the link between those two songs?

[@19claudio]

@@AOPrinciple There's no gap between the two songs and the last beat of Hurt You corresponds with the first one of Yellowjacket. They managed to create a really nice transition

[@4444johnnyboy4444]

“He bends more than he doesn’t bend” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I love this guy lmao

[@noelvaldez96]

Sun Killer, Hurt You, and Yellowjacket is such a great way to start the album. They all seamlessly go into each other, where it feels like an experience. Loathe’s last album had a similar experience. I usually can take and leave a lot of newer metalcore albums as a whole. But this is one I’ll probably listen to as a whole a lot more than a lot of bands.

[@19ThreeLions97]

Usually songs are merged with at least a bit of ambience but here Hurt You CHOP Yellowjacket, i was fkn shocked

[@pedropessoa2246]

The transition between Hurt You and Yellowjacket is just gold man

[@noelvaldez96]

@Call Me, BLEGH Me, If You Wanna Reach Me Oh crap awesome! Lol I haven’t listened to a lot of albums this year tbh so this list is limited to what I’ve actually listened to. Also, It’s not all metal because I would have like one. 😂 because tbh I usually lose interest with most modern metal albums. 🤷‍♀️ 1. Eternal Blue - Spiritbox 2. If I Could Make It Go Quiet - Girl in Red 3. Sob Rock - John Mayer 4. Z2 - TDWP (I know only a ep but it was sick!) 5. Niratia - Chevelle If you have any suggestions for good metal albums shoot them my way!

[@noelvaldez96]

@Call Me, BLEGH Me, If You Wanna Reach Me Silent Planet always gives gold! I love them! So yeah their album is probably going to be top contender for me. I’m also super excited for Whitechapel’s new album! I’ve always been a fan, but I haven’t really loved them until The Valley, so I’m jazzed to see what they do next. Also, I totally forgot that Phinehas had a new album! I just listened to it and it’s number 2 right now, and I haven’t been a huge fan of Darko but I’ll check out their new album. Just historically they haven’t really done it for me, but I’ll give them a chance for sure!
