It is, but that’s a super low bar. I don’t know if it’s the production or the lack of a second guitarist, but Resurrection sounded super empty and lifeless. Completely packed that oomph that past records had. I enjoy some of the songs quite a bit, but the record doesn’t sound good.
I pretty much fully agree with that tier list, although I struggle with separating tier 2 from tier 1. In reality that is probably true that those are just below tier 1.
