      Felt like they've always had a problem with structuring and they overload themselves i reckon by doing albums, some songs always seem like they need more time to stew, they should stick to eps but i feel the album as a whole is by far their best, just frustrating some songs are a bit ehh

    i think its just regular northlane Drop F, then in the C# section its used with a pitched shifting pedal, like a digitech or something, while the bass justs goes to his high c# so you can still ear the actual note hahha.
