with the release of first single, the vigorous Lux Æterna, it seemed that the yellow album by the Americans not only brings back the light of Lucifer, but also certain elements of their early stage, and indeed, this latest recording by notorious celebrities is not lacking in those, but the twelve-track opus is much more varied than it might initially appear, sort of taking it on were the previous longplay has left off, revealing intricate and dynamic compositions full of fast-paced riffs and complex guitar work, juxtaposed to mid tempo bangers with memorable melodies and refrains that bring balance and top-notch cohesion into the picture, where lyrics delve deep into the emotional and mental struggles such as anxiety, depression, and the quest for self-identity; first press five panel digipak edition comes with die-cut O card and sixteen page booklet
