Knocked Loose- You Won’t Go Before You’re Supposed To (May 10th 2024) • Page 13

The end of Moss Covers All is my favorite non-single one, and it's hard to say if the outro for Sit & Mourn is a breakdown or an extended outro.

 

The ending of Sit & Mourn, with that heavy riff parading over that simple haunting melody, reminds me a lot of the Acacia Strain circa The Dead Walk and I just love it.

 

there’s a few moments on the album that remind me of the acacia strain

 

it’s equal parts scary and fun like every good horror video game

 

Later Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza too. Especially Danza IIII.

 

It's a quick 30 minute listen but no time is wasted. Tight and to the point

 

Also I'm such a sucker for songs that transition into each other on an album and this album has it in SPADES

 

To the point where I wonder if Moss Covers All/Take Me Home should've been one song.

 

I haven't seen it mentioned, but the part in Slaughterhouse 2 that is basically a mic'd up unamped electric guitar chugging along to a metronome is a really cool flourish

 

My friend is coming over tonight to listen to this on vinyl, excited for him to experience this lol

going to be my first time hearing it on my speaker system

thirst just makes me smile every single time, probably my favorite opener of the year

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

 

I remember reading an interview where they mentioned it won't have clean vocals, but there are melodic parts. I didn't really know what that meant when I read it, but the "I dream of a cleansing wave, set me free, I return to form, no longer bound to me" part in Don't Reach for Me and the part in The Calm That Keeps You Awake that starts with Isaac saying "losing control" are actually really catchy, kind of earworm parts, as earworm-y as something like this can get.

 

Just put this on and lmao at Thirst going from 0 to 100000 right away, got me feeling like this

 

It reminds me of the kmac2021 studio skit and I choose to believe it's a nod to that.

 

Hearing the MIW guy on the track makes me appreciate Brian more. I probably wouldn’t give this much attention if the band had a more ~traditional~ sounding vocalist.

 

i'm so excited to listen to this but i probably won't have time until tomorrow. a tear in the fabric of life is probably my favorite heavy release of the last few years. to be fair i listen to maybe 3% of the heavy music i used to, but still. it's devastating and infectious at the same time.

 

Take Me Home is taking me back to my very first time hearing Slipknot's debut and being terrified of the noisier moments, really has that filthy vibe

 

I legit thought I was seeing things when Moss Covers All came on and then I looked down and it was Take Me Home wrapping up. The spoken word was sick and those keys are haunting on the transition between the two tracks. Feels like that could have been one song.

 

Slaughterhouse 2 could start a riot. Song is bananas. The back and forth at the end is pure napalm.

 

Main riff in Sit & Mourn sounds like BMTH but in a really good way. Absolutely monstrous.

 

This is me when Poppy comes on in the context of the album

 

What a fuckin record. Holy shit. Thirst made me physically recoil. Insane. I can’t get over how gross this whole record sounds and how crazy it is to put out something this abrasive at the current height of their career.

 

Buddy in the group text said The Calm That Keeps You Awake “has a breakdown that sounds like 1000 hardcore kids paddling a Viking ship straight into a circle pit” and now it’s all I can think about

 

side a ending with moss covers all and side b starting with take me home is really fucked up!
