Curious to see how I like the album. I've never enjoyed their sense of humor and their prior music video (along with some stuff I've heard which I won't go to- just very juvenile "edgy" humor on stage and such) left a bit of a bad taste in my mouth but I've generally been a fan of their music over the years. I do feel like they kinda are leaning into their own historical choices a bit comically hard, to the point where it's detracting from the music (the super fast vocal stuff for instance which seems supercharged compared to previously)
I don't even normally like tech-death much because I find most of the bands that do it fall into annoying genre tropes- but I've always felt Archspire did tech-death well while mixing in some good songwriting. Not sure how I feel this time around. I've been kinda disappointed with what I've heard so far though, but I thoroughly enjoyed Relentless Mutation and Bleed The Future.
New album "Too Fast To Die" dropped today, absolute technical insanity all the way through.
