Elevation
Our rating, out of 100 — and why.
AI-generated from five scored dimensions. An opinion, not a measurement.
Its compact sequence and recurring turns from jagged riffs to slower weight give the songs a distinctive shape that rewards revisiting.
What we noticed
- The nine-track sequence opens with “D4” and closes with “Curtain,” framing a compact record without an obvious bonus-track tail.
- Jagged, dissonant guitar figures repeatedly give way to slower, sustained passages, so songs build pressure through shifts in pace rather than a single continuous sprint.
- The vocals are shouted and strained, set against tightly locked drums and guitars; the contrast keeps the slower sections tense rather than restful.

Defined its genre or moment. Reported but not counted — how far a record travelled describes its reception rather than the record, and a newer release has had less time to travel than an older one.
