    Got this a while ago and gave it a good few listens and hate to say it's a bit underwhelming, both parts of House of Gold and Bones are flawless, so it would be impossible for them to better that, still it's a bit patchy it does have some decent tunes though.

    Witness Trees and When The Fever Broke are two of the best songs the band have recorded, also like Thank God It's Over, St.Marie and I love how mental Friday Knights is.

    Hope we get to see them over here next year.

    Yeah it's not bad but expected more they certainly set the bar too high perhaps off the back of the 2 parter, the departure of Jim Root seems to have had some affect.

    Taipei person/Allah tea and Witness Trees, Fabulus also were the songs I liked most Rose red violet blue is decent also despite the shoddy lyrics, last 2 songs in particular are the major low points.

    Been some great releases this year for me that will prob take a tour date here to give this album it's next few spins. Been awhile since they came here a small slot in a tent when they did that Download Ireland before that a small crowd in Limerick where supposedly people were asking them to play Slipknot songs.
