Listened to all of the album, so in 6 years this is what they actually put out? I'm astounded at just how poor it is, it's a fucking mess, some truly horrendous pieces of music Liam has ever written, what was he thinking? Christ , that Ibiza track, its embarrassing its so bad, the only real highlight (if you can call it that) is the heatwave hurricane break in Rebel Radio, but all that says is he wrote something decent over 7 years ago and its the highlight of a 15 track album.... It's a fucking awful album, they're finished as a band who write brilliant albums, they've become a parody of themselves and the bands they used to hate so much (and the bands we'd take the piss out of)

This is their most consistent album for sure.
I can't stop listening!

TDIME 9/10 Perfect opener, brutal drums, loud and in your fucking face.

NASTY 8.5/10 Triple-X Rated. Nuff' said.

REBEL RADIO 9.5/10 WOW! What a great surprise , it's beautiful , shouldve been a single imo.

IBIZA 7/10 This track has grown on me. An angry rant, and a damn good one.

DESTROY 10/10 Another WOW! This track is such an epic tease it makes me want to drive a Ferrari with a full on road rage with police chasing me and news filming from a chopper Lool

WILD FRONTIER 8/10 I actually like this more than before once listening to the full album.

ROK-WEILER 9/10 Another huge monster banger, loving the new bridge and ending and the melody played during Keith's part. Well done.

BEYOND THE DEATH RAY 9/10 WOW! The most beautiful Prodigy track and a real gem and a much needed break from all the noise.

RHYTHM BOMB 8/10 Another grower like Ibiza. It's very nice and I really dig the guitar and the distorted female vocal.

ROADBLOX 10/10 WOOOW! The best produced track on the album, the best Maxim track ever. Just P-E-R-F-E-C-T. I love the lyrics too!

GET YOUR FIGHT ON 7/10 I was looking forward to the beta live version so much but this is a totally new version and it's really good but not as good as the first version.

MEDICINE 9/10 Talk about some FRESH beats! Really digging it and the reggae flow. Awesome.

INVISIBLE SUN 8/10 Woah! Is that the prodigy? Very different and dark. The guitar is spot on and the vocals perfectly suit the spacey/dark flow of the track.

WALL OF DEATH 10/10 Heaviness, violence, darkness. Perfect album closer.

Definitely they're most consistent album to date. They are in great form and should keep the momentum to bring us another great album.

So basically. Firestarter, Funky Shit, Fuel my Fire, Serial Thrilla, Get Up Get Off, Wake Up Call, Action Radar, Shoot Down, etc is better than:

Destroy? Rok-Weiler? Roadblox? The Day?

Okay.

I agree with you with some small exceptions. (-2) to Nasty and Rythm Bomb ,(-1) to Roadblox and (+1) for Medicine just for the beats.

A large divergence of opinion here: which is what Liam would want - no middle ground.

Reading comments that some people find certain songs in TDIME 'cringeworthy' - while at the same time lauding IMD. Which is puzzling because IMD was the only album where I experienced anything resembling a 'cringeworthy' feeling. On songs like IMD (the title track) - which came across as Tesco-value Pendulum. I didn't find anything innovative about IMD at all - which isn't necessarily a bad thing as long as the tunes are bangin'. I must admit that with IMD I had to force myself to like a lot of the tunes on that album - the almost cartoon-like nature and feel of the songs (which I guess derive from the experience-derived direction of some songs) don't really do it for me now.

In contrast, the new album sounds like it means business - in terms of productions, the 'feel,' tone and vibe of the tracks are perfect (taking their cue from TFOTL and Jilted - even AONO too). All with the energy of IMD. I said this yesterday - for me, this new album is my current favourite and probably (in a more considered sense) their second best (behind jilted). I can't stress how much I love it - even songs like Nasty (which I have grown to really like now) seem to make more sense in the context of the album - it's a sonic journey with twists and turns that I haven't experienced since Jilted. TFOTL had (as Liam said) killer tracks (Smack, Breathe and Firestarter) but I find the album much more one-dimensional (and less interesting) than TDIME (which I think is a superior collection of album tracks).

And despite what a lot of people say, I absolutely LOVE GYFO. One of my favourites on the album - when that main riff kicks in at the start. Wow! That, Destroy, Rokweiler, Rebel Radio, Roadblox all destroy all before them. Unlike IMD I don't feel I need to force myself to like any of these songs - I love them! Can't stop listening to them - never had that feeling with (maybe the exception of TMTTH) any IMD songs.

This is better than I ever imagined it to be.

This and Jilted are the best for me. Without question.

Get Up Get Off, Wake Up Call

You do not consider funky shit MILES above destroy, rok, blox, day? Okay.

Thanks for past ones Liam but jack it in bro, you're done, and i can't even begin to fathom how anyone could say any of this tripe would stand anywhere near FOTL, Jilted, Experience or AONO... just different galaxies....
