Elevation

Our rating, out of 100 — and why.

46 /100
Foothills
Higher than 10% of albums we've rated

The album showcases energetic hard rock with catchy hooks but lacks significant depth or innovation.

What we noticed

  • The first half of the album maintains a high-energy pace with driving guitar riffs and anthemic choruses, while the second half introduces slower tempos in several tracks.
  • Several tracks incorporate gang vocals, particularly in the chorus sections, enhancing the rebellious and communal feel of the music.
