Knocked Loose "You Won't Go Before You're Supposed To" Out 5/10/24

[CTID]

Definitely a divisive band so this thread might be opening a can of worms but don't really care too much. Stoked for this album and this is one of the larger bands out there repping 7 strings basically since the beginning.

Album singles:







Some older stuff:





New album is gonna fuck.

I went from not liking Knocked Loose, mainly cause of the vocals, to so excited for this release because of their recent songs. Something clicked and Bryan's vocals just sound like straight screaming in such a sick way. Something about shit that just isn't that complicated and just HITS has been a vibe lately for me

 

[crushingpetal]

I'm down. Gonna' be sick.

 

[CTID]

It's out, just finished listening to it and really liked it. Pretty short at 27 minutes but that just means more spins

 

[owlexifry]

sadly im one of those fuckheads that just has to have that annoying opinion of enjoying the old stuff way more.

idk these tracks have just sounded like low end sub sine waves + noise + drums compared to previous releases.

i want to enjoy this band but it’s hard with this new direction.

 

[Crungy]

I know what I'm listening to on the drive in this morning, and at 27 mins I'll get through the whole thing before I get there lol

This fucks, as advertised.

i love them so much. i love his vocals, i love their riffs, i love their energy. very very happy for their success. the new album is amazing.

I'm not really a fan of knocked loose, with that said, I did see them live a few years ago and was blown away. Would definitely see them live again, what an energy they brought.

EDIT: Hold up, is that dude rocking a custom AZ 7?? That thing is beautiful looking!

 

[JD27]

Did not disappoint. This is my favorite one, I think.

 

[crushingpetal]

This indeed fucks. I'll give it a few spins before I make a call.

It is indeed. They just did a new rig rundown.

 

[CanserDYI]

Omg. That AZ is about as close to my ideal guitar as I've ever seen.

 

[gunshow86de]

I know he's just trying to be enthusiastic, but it is so tough to watch those Rig Rundowns with that guy.

 

[CTID]

and yet no enthusiasm for Isaac's Iceman smh my damn head at y'all

 

[SalsaWood]

Where are the guitar solos?

I'm glad these guys are blowing up and doing it with such a heavy sound but... while I don't think this album is bad I do think it's probably the least interesting thing they done.

I love 'A Tear in the Fabric of Life' and it stands alone as a very focused EP, but I was really hoping the next album would pick up from A Different Shade of Blue and progress from there. This just feels like boiling their sound down to something less dynamic without fully committing to something as compact as what Nails does.

 

[Crungy]

I listened to all of it on the way to work and I like it a lot. It has super gnarly heavy stuff, stuff that rocks and is a little melodic... I'd say par for the course given the stuff they've been releasing. It's about what I expected and I'm not disappointed whatsoever.

That said, I think A Tear In the Fabric of Life is my favorite piece of work from them, followed by Laugh Tracks, the Upon Loss singles and the newest release. I'm not sure why but A Different Shade of Blue doesn't resonate with me for some reason. I need to listen to it more.

 

[gunshow86de]

My favorite zoomercore guilty pleasure band has done it again.

10/10 ... no notes

WOOF WOOF
