Oh? So quickly! I assumed by the artwork this would be an expansion of the previous album. Nice new track to start with though.

Oh wow this is quite the surprise! I knew a follow-up thing was in the works, but I didn't expect it to be a full album! The week they're releasing currently looks clear for them to get their fourth #1 which is good.

Wow this seems very quick and as Lewis remarked the art work looks like a follow up to the last era. Seems a bit of a short campaign too 😳

They've never particular been ones for waiting between albums anyway, especially in the early years when they weren't such big names. I'd imagine not having to do a massive tour between albums has probably helped in getting this out so fast, allowing them to go onto it more quickly. |

'Denier', 'Witch's Cup' and 'Holy Water' are pretty cool songs.
I don't get why 'A Hunger In Your Haunt' was a single. I know it's kinda single-y but it's... not great. Even 'Unknown Male 01' would make a better leading single if it has a shorter edit. 'Slurpy Sleep' was also kinda preachy and dumb lyrically, almost like a Part 2 or a response track to AHIYH in terms of its self-analysis themes.

‘A Hunger In Your Haunt’ has taken a while but it’s hit me at last, great classic Biffy tune!!

I'm liking this album more than their last one - 'Separate Missions' in particular is brilliant (have read that it was heavily influenced by The Cure and I can definitely see it, loving the discordant synth intro as well) and 'Slurpy Slurpy Sleep Sleep' is a little ridiculous but it is a banger, much like the last album saving the most bonkers song for last. 'Existed' is lovely as a more lowkey moment too and also enjoying 'Denier', 'Witch's Cup' + all of the singles, especially 'A Hunger In Your Haunt'. ('Errors In The History Of God' didn't click with me that much on first listen but I liked it a lot more listening to it as part of the album!)
A bit of a shame that a busy release week saw this ending their streak of top 3 albums, even with a (somewhat expected) big drop from their last album they sold enough to have been top 3 on almost every other week this year, #2 in most weeks and even #1 in a handful. Nevermind, at least they keep up a top 5 streak! |
