Wow they really took their time. Hope it will be killer

Found out about their self-titled album not too long ago and it already managed to really become one of my favourite records of all time. Therefore I can't really hide my anticipation for this release.

Dissona's previous album was a real treasure. I can only hope that this will be just as good!

Here's the latest track, Odium: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRI8RDmOLTM

I'm fairly impressed by the track, but that's probably not a surprise. I basically like everything this band even attempts.

Let's see how this baby turned out!

Very accomplished and mature album, but not even close to the level of quality they showed on the debut or even on Ten Masks. My expectations were probably too high for the album, and it really isn't all that bad (production is great, lots of really fascinating moments).... but the songwriting is not nearly as engaging as their earlier work for me. I also really admired Dissona for the amazing main vocalist, who doesn't get nearly enough time to shine on this record. They really put their heart and soul into this one, though, and that is obvious upon even a cursory listen. That being said, I imagine this will likely be a minor disappointment to some who have followed the band along the way, even if it might open the doors to some new listeners. 7.5/10 for me.

I couldn't get into their previous stuff but this one's very good stuff.

Very good. Takes some work to get through (over an hour of music), but once you do it it's really worth it.

They pledged to do a cover of whatever the top-tier campaign backer requested, excellent choice:

The most japanese sounding metal album that isn't from Japan?
