Legendary As Friends Rust are back with new release containing seven songs. What to expect here? Seven songs of excellent melodic hardcore punk like we are used to from this phenomenal band. There are some mid tempo emotional punk rock songs like awesome ‘Final Form’ but it is not everything in speed isn’t it? The said song has such nice melodic vocal lines, harsh when needed and melodic when needed, so sweet! ‘Positive Mental Platitude’ continues where the previous song left off being even better with fine written smart lyrics over fine tuned melody and energetic punk rock, melodic hardcore. ‘See Us Now’ is a clever mixture of rock and hardcore in one song, with gentle chorus and more harsher verses being thrown at you and adding some groove with melody. One of my favorites on this record is ‘Great Filter’ being a perfect combination of melody, aggression and punk sensibility. ‘The Walking Debt’ has harshest verse on the album evolving into beautiful chorus to make goosebumps upon your skin. Fastest straightforward hardcore punk song on this record is definitely ‘Origin Stories’, old school hardcore anthem, angry and energetic. One of my personal highlights is ‘No Gods, Some Masters’ which closes the album being perfect song. For sure, one of the best releases this year.
