Real talk question:

Would thodoks ever admit that the album is actually good? I mean, at this point, would go completely against every personality trait you have created for yourself.

[Birds in Hell]

haha, of course i would. i love pendulum, and, were the album constructed thematically and musically around the instincts displayed in its creation, i would have happily consumed the album, and announced the unexpected return of my affection for the band.

Yeah, while I've liked Infallible less on every listen, I've unexpectedly warmed up a substantial amount to the title track.
