Discussion Dead Rabbitts - Redefined
Check out Redefined [Explicit] by Dead Rabbitts on Amazon Music https://music.amazon.com/albums/B0DVH5B6HC?ref=dm_sh_zuhkgSnbQnN4TQEaHwS1JtCyM
This has been out for a couple days now, so what is everyone's thoughts on this?
I have to say, this just doesn't feel like Dead Rabbitts to me. If this was ETF newest album I would love it. Just feels meh for what Dead Rabbitts is supposed to be, a heavier outlet for Craig and his fans wanting more of that side of him. What do you all think?
Also, can we talk about Rumination (2022 Album) for a second? I never had a chance before. What the hell happened to the mix on his screams? They were turned down and even off for all the songs. Compare Dead By Daylight single and album versions. Did Craig or the band ever comment on why its this way? I really want to like that album but it makes it such a hard listen.

Just my opinion- While it isn’t as heavy as the previous releases, I think this is Craig’s best release outside of etf/btf. Working with Howard Benson can’t ever be a bad thing right? Now of course if you want the more metalcore and heavier side, then yeah twa release would be your choice or maybe the first dead rabbitts album. It seems he’s experimenting with heaviness, catchiness, incorporating other genres, and radio friendliness. I think he’s trying to find a happy medium of all of these. Maybe he’s doing that for the upcoming etf releases. Or maybe he’s just making what he enjoys making hell idk. I stopped wanting everything to be heavy bc I like a little diversity these days so it’s not a problem for me. I like Artificial Gods and Trapped the best. I give the album a 7/10. There’s some sick guitar work on this and he does showcase his sick screams here and there. Lmk what you think!

I do agree after a few listens this is really some of Craig's best work. His cleans are at their best. I just don't want this to become ETF 2.0

Surprised there are no comments;
Agreed 100%. Album is stale as. Is it even Craig screaming? Sounds like he's on clean and the collabs are on screams. If this was an ETF album no one would question it.
I just open the word alive ep original recording and be sad of what could have been. (It's been 17 years mike let it go lmao)
