The Republic of Wolves - shrine (March 27, 2018) Album • Page 24

About to listen to this

 

I would start with this one or His Old Branches, and save The Cartographer and No Matter How Narrow for last, since they are the outliers of the discography, imo.

 

After I get take out and go home it's on

 

chicken sandwich in hand, track 1 is fired up

 

the opener sounds like a song from come now sleep

 

i honestly havent heard anything that sounds like this since as cities burn or as tall of lions were in their prime.

 

my one complaint is that the clean vocals sound like christ martin sometimes lol. the unclean vocals are fucking ace though.

 

Blasphemy

 

chris martin is a great vocalist! so its not an insult! i just dont like coldplay and think of them sometimes on his cleans. im sure itll wear off.

 

he also kinda sounds like the guy from as tall as lions so if i focus on that i might unhear chris martin

 

these guys definitely follow the lienage of bands who were equally inspired by radiohead and third wave emo. really love this style when done right.

 

i keep coming up with more and more comparisons that consist of so many bands ive been missing since they arent around anymore (or barely). crime in stereo, as tall as lions, as cities burn, the felix culpa, etc.

 

so i think this is gonna be something special, im only halfway through but cant wait to go back to the tracks ive already heard and dig in more

 

Haha I didn't really take it as an insult, it was just a friendly play on your typo..."christ" martin.

 

d'oh im stupid

 

I actually think you’ll really love them bonus tracks too

 

which ones are bonus i have the expanded edition or whatever

 

Oh cool! The ones in perenthesis

 

dialogues is my favorite so far wow

 

this album needs to blow the fuck up around here. no fucking reason why this shouldnt be the biggest scene release of the year. this has it all.

 

im sorry but im listening to dialogues again that was fucking jaw dropping, i havent heard a band in this genre do something like that in a long time

 

You listen to ore yet? I think that one is great too

 

i must know if @CoffeeEyes17 and @Drew Beringer are aware of this album

 

if they keep hitting home runs like dialogues im never gonna make it to that track

 

They do a really cool some signature thing in the post chorus of ore and I cant figure it out lol.. and you know I love counting... but yea that’s a top 3 song on here for me as well. Great bridge too
