Cave In - Heavy Pendulum (May 20, 2022) Album • Page 4

*whispers* this might top jupiter and perfect pitch black for me

final transmission is great but it’s so buried in the loss of caleb/a lot of the songs being barely fleshed out demos. this feels like a true return from white silence.

 

*whispers louder* it does top those albums

 

I love Brodsky's voice a lot but yeah he is doing some weird stuff on here and it doesn't all land

 

what isn’t landing? like which song/part?

 

He isn’t doing anything differently here he hasn’t done before…

 

I love this whole thing. I think the sequencing is darn near perfect.

 

I don't think anything is gonna top Antenna as my favorite Cave In record, just because without it I possibly would have never gone down the rabbit hole of punk, hardcore, metal, etc. Huge record in terms of shaping the music I became interested in. But I would love to eat crow and have this record top it.

 

Me when Waiting For Love comes on...

 

such an interesting top pick haha. i’ve come around on it massively the last few years but i used to haaate it

 

Are they opening for that AIC, BB, Bush tour?

 

I'm a casual fan of this band at best, so this probably is incorrect, but I feel like every time I go to listen to something new they've put out, I'm listening to a completely different band than the one I remember previously.

That being said, this album is some pretty great stuff. Lovin' it.

 

Searchers of Hell goes.

 

this has always been the case

 

Lol these takes in here are atrocious

 

he... kind of is, it feels like he's forcing this grungey croon a little bit and sometimes it just sounds weird, irregardless of him being a great vocalist overall

this album is great, beautifully produced and tracklisted, Nate absolutely kills it and the 70 minutes fly by. it's probably their second weakest album. that's just how good this band is

 

This is the best rock album I’ve ever heard

 

Damn, this thing is good. Just absolutely stellar guitar work (though that's nothing new for them).

 

i really truly don’t hear anything in his vocals different from going back to jupiter. if anything, it’s less histrionic, with not of the high pitched stuff like in the stream of commerce

 

Just noticed the Metallica lyrical reference in Wavering Angel. Very sneaky, Stephen.

 

In Miami on a bachelor party trip and started this yesterday before activities and wrapping it up now. Really special album and like others said Nate brought a lot to this album. Searchers of Hell and Careless Offering were my first two initial favorites. Can’t wait to jam this all summer.

 

His vocals sound way more confident than they did on Jupiter. Which I get. I could be wrong but IIRC he got actual vocal training around the time of Antenna

 

album rocks ass and has been blasting nonstop in my house since I got it Wednesday evening

cooked dinner last night and couldn't stop walking around going "fresh keeeeeeel"

 

Never thought I'd see this much love for Cave In on here. Happy there seem to be a bunch of new fans too.

 

Lots of riffs what more could you want

 

always surprised me when they weren’t bigger on ap
