Elevation
Our rating, out of 100 — and why.
AI-generated from five scored dimensions. An opinion, not a measurement.
The album balances energetic pop-punk with introspective moments, but lacks standout compositions to elevate it further.
What we noticed
- The first four tracks maintain a high energy level with driving guitar riffs and upbeat tempos, while the fifth track introduces a slower, more reflective mood.
- Several songs feature layered vocal harmonies that enhance the emotional weight of the lyrics, particularly in tracks like 'How She Died' and 'Ever She Flows'.
- The album closes with a gradual fade-out on 'Left Feeling Odd', creating a sense of introspection that contrasts with the earlier energetic tracks.
