Listening to the new album more, and it is getting there for me. Talk about a slow grower.
I think Awaken the Master is the clear standout here. Great song.
Answering the Call is getting a lot better for me as well after being a bit iffy on certain aspects of it prior.
Still not sure about that ending to the title track, but still a very good song overall, with some great moments.
Invisible Monster doesn't sound as bland to me now; it is more of a solid deep cut for me now. Not a standout, but not bad at all.
The Alien has grown on me a lot. I dig it.
Sleeping Giant, which a lot of people seem to love, is one I am still unsure about. There are parts of it I really like, but just not sure if it all comes together well.
Time will tell, but I am definitely happy that this one is growing on me.
