Pros:
Sports a largely unique and intriguing sound, fusing genres including metal, funk, reggae and electronic together and combining them all under some powerful lead vocals and a luscious guitar tone
Many hooks and central moments are standout and memorable, utilising layered vocals and other effects well
Cons:
Genre fusions are largely awkward and unsatisfying, switching between unrelated passages without any clear through-line or motivation
Many metal riffs feel largely superfluous, suffering from unfortunate rhythmic issues and hugging the root note much too closely
Production is a little thin and lifeless
Best: Silent Machine
Worst: Myth of Progress
5/10 Just listen to Outlier
