Kind Of a Bummer…
I’ve been a fan going on about 10 years now but the direction Caleb has chosen to take the band just feels a bit forced. I fully understand his life choices, change of mindset, and him portraying that through his lyrics. I also know I don’t speak for the majority of fans, but one thing I always liked about the band was they didn’t feel the need to throw in unnecessary profanity to try and sound hard/heavy. Just seems like that isn’t the case now, and without warrant, it is overused and pushed in Pure Ecstasy to try and highlight their new direction. Bands evolve all the time. I get that. Will be interesting to see how this works out for them. Just not what made me fall in love with them years ago…
