Edited to add this glorious artwork.
Released this past Tuesday.

Amazing album, considerably more polished than their last album, Death Is This Communion. Greg Fidelman's production is the best of his career, meaning that it is bad, but it does not ruin the album. Matt Pike's guitar tone is great as always, but not as monstrous as on the previous album, which was much more fitting of his riffs and playing style. Vocals are a bit higher and less gravelly, less rough, more polished, etc fitting in with the all-encompassing production. Bass performance is great, and shines where leads are given, but it is a bit low in the mix. Drum performance is amazing, drum production is alright, but they lack the thunderous production of the previous endeavor, and the cymbals clip quite a bit.

This is worthy of nothing less than your best speakers/headphones

Man the first 1:30 intro was sweet but i just can't stand that type of "vocals"
