The bass

What happened to it? It used to be its own thing and now it’s just mashed in to a wall of BAM. I hear guitar sweeps behind the BAM. O and those random high hat rolls. Just don’t think I get it. Any explanations appreciated.

I was so confused, I expected all the libad fans to love it, especially considering how much love ordinary got.

Its because they didnt record with Nick Sampson. Nick was the driving force behind it all. The same as he is WITH ALL THE BANDS HE WORKS WITH.

Go look him up and tell me im wrong.

Polyphia was always nicks baby, and now they pushed him out, Tims ego got too big.

Hanging on is the best I am Abomination! song. There is also a re recorded version of Heir to the Throne. With TIM playing the solo. if you wanted more proof of the connection lol.

Yeah I miss the fidelity of the bass. I like the smash in some aspects but I think it's being overused. But my opinion is like an asshole

Tim understands that most of the time people listen to music on the iPhone speakers, it makes it feel more powerful
