This is the most (Please listen with headphones) record they've done in a while.. Realllllly makes the difference, for me.. I feel like the lyrics are buried in the mix more than I'd like, and once I can hear em.. the record opens up.
Not gonna listen til it comes out (or my cd perhaps comes early) but listening to Cursed and I think Blackbird is severely underrated
“Break” fucking rips! I swear they summoned Jerry Finn through an ouija board to help write that song. Holy shit.
The last Dan song is such a banger and the first song is so "riffy" for them. pretty cool record, I think its going to grow to be a favorite in their catalogue for me.
I feel like I’m the only one but I honestly enjoying that raw production. Guitar sounds great on those riffs and bass really shining too. on my like 10th listen,and Shake With Me is definitely Demon & Division of this album for me. Beautiful melody and amazing bridge plus Danny’s part is just cherry on the top. This band just can’t do wrong.
You’re not alone. I like it too. It’s raw and beefy, which reminds me of Jerry Finn and Good Mourning/Crimson. A lot of this album already reminds me of Good Mourning and Crimson.
if anyone needs me i will be crafting an entire personality around Shake With Me for the next year at least. i knew my expectations for this album were high but i am 0% disappointed, cannot get over how good this is. also cannot WAIT to see them in March.
A fine farewell to Derek.. Upon listening even more today while at work.. Each listen it grows and grows.. I thought I didnt like the guitar tones until I just stuck with headphones and.. yeah.. I still keep saying this is a great headphone record.
