      @@Austinwevo same opinion really; it's good and i prefer some individual elements over alien but as a whole experience-wise alien was definitely better

    This Northlane Alien album is a perfect example of how a band can change their style and still be awesome! Most bands fail at trying to do this.

    The album won the ARIA of the year in the heavy category. Clearly it has inspired so many releases this year. Nothing seems to sound like alien before its release

    Man such a huge northlane fan alien is defintely one of my favorite albums ever and its so different but but is so good and still has that distinct northlane tone too it. Also Can we take a moment to appreciate mesmer and how the dropped that shit just out of the blue back in like March or February I think in 2017

      You need to see how the lyricism defines this album. Instrumentally its unique, but it's the stories Marcus is telling about his childhood and growing up into adulthood with two parents who were addicts.
