for context, the original slaughterhouse was originally by motionless in white and featured bryan garris of knocked loose, so the sequel is like a reversal of sorts, except the sequel goes way harder

The fact that they kept things this experimental and interesting while being THIS HEAVY is insane. This is my favorite album of the decade so far and I honestly don't know if it will be topped. In my opinion, metalcore is entering a new golden age with new albums coming out very frequently that are either fresh, heavy, nostalgic, or a combination of the three. I cannot wait to see what impact this album leaves on the scene.

I feel the same way but a tear in the fabric of life is so much more then an album when you take into consideration the entire film that goes along with it and that it’s all one encompassing story both great pieces though

[@JoshLeitzel]

I only got into them this year from the new singles and I think the new LP is just fantastic (especially ecstatic as a Poppy fan), but A Tear in the Fabric of Life is just sooo incredible. It’s one of those rare EP’s that hits with the weight of an album and just feels so tight and satisfying every time. Only time will tell with this new one, but it’s yet another typical Knocked Loose W.

There is a reason why Knocked Loose has become as popular as it is despite being a hardcore band. This album is great as most of their projects are, and their new guitarist and vocalist is the reason for their new sound. It's unmistakably Knocked Loose, but this album feels much more organized and purposeful than something like laugh tracks. I hope this inspires Brad to check out the rest of their discography
