PERPETUAL PARANOIA ~ The Wave

I posted about it earlier, didn't get much response but I agree, it's really good.

Know people are tired of DT in the scene but this is really worth checking out IMO.

This will be the year of me slowing down buying his projects.  I will keep up with Bride and Perpetual Paranoia.  His project with Todd Stevens is solid as well.  Beyond that, most of his stuff is just lacking to me.

I’m gonna check it out soon. I heard some of one of their other albums and it was solid. 

I was gonna post this on Nazgûl’s thread, but I procrastinated. Don’t want him to think I’m ignoring him. I know how much he values my opinion.

Who's Nazgul?

I figure if Pethead=Bedhead, Black Rider=Nazgûl. (Nerdy Lord of the Rings reference).

Man, I’m not feeling this album at all.

I sampled this one and could not get into it at all. 
A shame because I really liked the last one "Hell Fest" from 2021.

I do not know what most of you guys are hearing that I’m not. I’m not feeling this album AT ALL. There are some individual moments in various songs that are good, and Dale sounds great, but I don’t think the songs overall are any good. I’m honestly shocked some of you guys like it so much.

I just enjoy the vocals not killing it. I like it, not going to be a top 20 but a good listen.

I wonder when they will actually release it on CD.

I went ahead and got the downloads.   I don't know when I will actually get around to listening to it as I have quite a bit of new, or new to me, music to get caught up on.

Alright, so it’s growing on me. I still think the songs have odd structures and tend to ramble, but it’s sounding better to me now. Last year, I probably wouldn’t have given this so many chances, but this year there has been a lack of Christian metal so far so I really wanted to like this.

Strangely, I liked this more on the first couple listens.
The lack of new music is why I'm trying to like Preterist more.

Does anyone else think the guitar and drums could use a more powerful mix?
