    I'm really disappointed in this album. I think it's probably automatically going to become my least favourite H.E.A.T release due to the mastering.

    It's fucking LOUD. The levels have all been pushed to 100% so everything is just a mush of white noise. I put the album on last night and had ear fatigue by about 4 songs in. I skipped around but can't really form much of an opinion on the songs yet bar that I like Not for Sale quite a lot.

    I was so excited to hear Kenny again but he sounds quite buried in the mix. You can't even really tell what the guitars are doing in the choruses due to that pumping mush of noise. I dunno if I can manage a full playthrough of the thing :(

    It's awful.

    I have the vinyl arriving today and I hope to god it's better.

    I agree with this 100% and Not For Sale is just about the only keeper for my Spotify H.E.A.T mix with Kenny on vocals. 

  2. Easily the bands weakest release…the catchy sing along choruses are nowhere to be found. This is the first H.E.A.T that will not make my top ten, nor twenty. The band deserves a few spins but I’m not really pumped to listen to this one again. 
     

    I guess they wanted heavy and loud over melodic and memorable. I am super disappointed with what I am hearing here. 

  3. Vocals are good

    gang vocals really good

    Musicians are great 

    still odd seeing an Asian band play Scandi/Euro style rock but the more the merrier. 

    my biggest concern are the songs. Like 91 Suite…the ingredients are all there but the final result is lacking robust songs that kick ass. The two sample tracks are ok but nothing more. Plus signing to Frontiers sure doesn’t mean the song writing will necessarily improve…the ADV effect.

    Not sold but will certainly investigate more.

    I liked the first album, thought the second one was just ok, new single is just ok as well. They are still doing that thing from the last album where half the songs were a minute/minute and a half longer than it needed to be.

    My thoughts exactly on the unnecessary long length of some of the songs.

  5. A monster of a release…gorgeous on every level. Good to see Frontiers releasing such a beautiful piece of work with a variety of different vocalists. It won’t be for everyone but this will easily find its way into my top 10 of 2022.

  6. The title track dropped and it reminds me of Judas Priest but is still the sound that has become Reckless Love. 
     

    Pepe the guitarist isn’t talked about very much but his solos are amongst my favourites over the past few years. They may be short but most are flashy, unique and memorable. Not the shred by numbers that goes unnoticed…you clearly hear and anticipate every one of his guitar solos.
