Verdict: Immediate keep — this one stays in rotation.
curious little pull toward Death Is Not The End — not hype, just the feeling that it will sit well between two songs I already love.
helpful note for fellow playlist kids: pair it after something colder, then let Death Is Not The End thaw the room a little.
short version: it is sticky without trying to scare you. good for headphones and for a quiet car.
putting it next to Boy Harsher ice. 9.2/10 — Immediate keep — this one stays in rotation.

respectfully disagree on the score — the bridge carries more than you’re giving it.

Verdict: Solid with clear strengths.
No ceremony — Death Is Not The End is a clean hit.
What works is narrower: the kick pattern slaps. Everything else is competent packaging.
This chorus does not earn the drop. The verse work is thinner than the mood suggests.
Call it 8.3/10. Solid with clear strengths.
