4 stars A7X with their new album, show how they can write great music beyond genres. They maintained some "A7X" sounds in the first songs, but in the last ones they go into another direction, transporting you to prog metal ("G", WHAT A GREAT TRACK), a Daft Punk song and some Sinatra too haha, really crazy but well written. And the closing track, a Chopin-esque piano nocturne. A weird balanced record, but interesting stuff here.

For me, being a huge fan of this band, this album is something I've been waiting for since the last one, which was a bit prog. So, maybe this is not an album for every prog fan, but if you like Avenged Sevenfold and weird, varied prog rock, it's truly recommended.
