I was worried seeing a low rating, and for the first 10 seconds of the first track I really wasn’t sure what I thought. Another 10 seconds I was into it. And I absolutely loved it before the end of the playtime, and gladly let it run through again. Gritty, heavy, humorous, great musicianship hiding behind the yelling, and the playtime was perfect - enough to get to the point and not waste any more time. I’ve had plenty of bloated albums by now, and this album shows that more doesn’t mean better and in fact can mean worse. I would normally rate this 4-4.25/5 but I’m rating up as the current global 2.7 is too low. Not my typical musical genre but this was fucking great
