      Just random growls don't make a heavy album. I felt a bit sleepy listening to those tracks, as soon as i knew that it's just all about heavyness. So a quite boring record for me. Best song is Slaughterhouse 2, rest falls flat from that one.

      while that's true, he also has a large audience. Him praising the record may lead to some of his fans, who might be apprehensive about heavy music, approaching it with a more open mind. Who knows, maybe a few of them will become part of the metal/ metalcore scene.

    The one thing I've realised watching Fantano over the years: he likes shit that "pushes the envelope" of any genre. He appreciates people really trying to evolve the artform. He's very lukewarm on artists doing the same stuff that's already been done before without elevating on it. And he REALLY doesn't like artists who are - in his opinion - half-assing a project. I often don't agree with his takes because I judge music based on how much I will enjoy listening to it in the future, but I feel that's a completely different metric.

      It is usually fine and unique but with Poppy it really does sound like a brother and sister screaming at their parents. context I guess?

      @limi. Před 3 měsíci

      It is weird in a way because of how it sounds more different to what you'd imagine a heavy vocalist to sound like in your head even if I love the band I can see why people don't like the vocals.... At this point it is just preference.

    I'm gonna be honest, when I first listened to this album I found it a little underwhelming. But, as I gave it more and more listens, it's becoming one of my favourite releases of the year. I still think A Different Shade of Blue is their best album, but for me this is a very close second.

    Unpopular opinion but I understand where Fantano is coming from in regards to Sleep Token. Its a cool sound at first, but the more you listen the more I really dislike it. Its like one of those songs/sounds that becomes annoying after a while.

    • @morbideddie
      @morbideddie Před 3 měsíci +2

      Honestly, outside of the ST fanbase his opinion isn’t even that unpopular. Before the review I could have told you that Fantano, a guy who prefers gritty production and riffs in metal wouldn’t like them.
      The Imagine Dragons comparison is very apt.

      Not really. He gave Cudi and Ye a 10 for Kids See Ghosts after Cudi got a zero for Speedin Bullet and his other works got mid at best reviews. Same with Ye’s stuff at the time. He also gave Daughters’ third album a 10 even though he thought their first two albums were mid. Those are just off the top of my head but I know there are other examples out there.

    I fucking love Bryan's vocals. I hope he knows that even though people poke fun a lot about it, his voice is KILLER and absolutely stand-out for all the right reasons IMO. Definitely a huge draw for why Knocked Loose stood out in the first place for me and has only gotten better over time. No other vocalist currently matches that raw, furious energy that he brings with his screams and I couldn't imagine the scene as a whole without him at this point.
