This one was a nostalgic listen for me, as Falling In Reverse were one of the bands that caused me to fall in love with rock music back in my early teens. Their first album in seven years, it’s clear to see that the band have used this time to hone their signature blend of metalcore and rap. The heavy guitar shredding combined with atmospheric production and hip-hop beats works surprisingly well, with frontman Ronnie Radke’s strong vocals, impressive rapping abilities and cut-throat lyrics creating a driving anger that courses through its 11 tracks. A haunting reimagining of Papa Roach’s ‘Last Resort’ was a very welcome surprise at the end. LT
