B-Frontliner - Other Planets [Roughstate]

[lukluk007]

I don't have true favourite from whole album. Every track is on high quality.
In my opinion Intro, Interlude and Outro are build better than 95% of these days productions, so no more words needed.

[RidiQless]

awesome album, nothing more to say.

[Morten K]

Mixed feelings about this. It's not bad at all, but still no tracks stand out for me.
World Outside is the best for sure, but its been out in almost 4 years, so already overplayed.

Sadly a poor update on Auditory Nerve, the original which is almost 13 years old is still the best version.

[VOL-E]

Never was a big fan of B-Front, I think I missed this big hypetrain, listeting to the album and don't get whats so special about it... basically all tracks sound the same

[Jellepetje]

I have never been more happier with a release. Worth the wait for sure and even made me comment on here for the first time in years.

Auditory Nerve: 5
These new kicks do not work for me..

World Outside: 10
A true work of art even being 8 years old. I don’t care that it’s overplayed, I’m glad it’s finally here and didn’t have the same fate as the 2-Sidez tracks.

Legacy of the Creators: 10
Love it, creativity at maximum with endless energy.

Rulers of the Sky: 10
My personal favourite since first hearing it at Emporium 2017

Secrets of the Universe: 8,5
Bob’s atmospheres never dissapoint, the kick does a bit, especially with the pitching in the climax.

Other Planets: 10
Love the synth, break, buildup and vocal. If i were an astronaut i would blast this tune in my spaceshuttle when going through the hurling through space at 1.000.000 mph.

Space Warrior: 6
Still an amazing tune, but this one being released since 2015 makes me take some points off after them basically having 8 years to create new tracks for this album.

It’s own creation: 8
Do not like the new kicks, amazing vibe nonetheless. Brings me back to Hardbass 2015!

The Anthem: 9,5
Just so much energy, currently doing laps around the moon in my mind.

Creating Monsters: 9
Those kicks and dark melody, its a beast!

K.I.C.K.: 4
Feels like an DJ tool, I like the drive it has but it’s basically a long intro. Just like having sex and stopping before the best part. Also the laser kicks have to be buried alive for their sins.

Destroy: 10
Complete destruction, monster track. Everytime this comes on i go completely apeshit.

Sound Barrier: 8
Not really a track to listen to, but more one to enjoy at parties. Nice closing track for the album though.

Overall this for me personally feels like the last hoorah from the Hardstyle i knew, love and grew up with since the last +/- 14 years. The current sound has drifted too far away for my liking. Thank you Bob and Barry for showing everyone how it’s done for one last time.

Definition of a boring album. Literally every track has the B-Front lead. The same lead he's been using for over a decade now, which in itself is fine of course, but not when you create an album with 16 tracks (of which three are nothing) that all sound the same, in a time span of what, five to ten years . Only two tracks I like: Space Warrior and K.I.C.K. Only one track I somewhat like: Sound Barrier, the only one that stands out.

The rest is just plain boring, recycled, uninspired and lazy.

[Reverse Ghost]

^These are all reasons people continue to listen to B-Front and hype for this album.
Keep in mind that most of these tracks have already been finished for years.

I'm biased of course, most of you know this, but saying someone like Bob has made the same thing for a decade is just lazy feedback. you're all smarter than that and you can articulate exactly why you don't like someone's music (too many breaks, too many of the same synth, too slow, same structure, not enough or too much zaags, etc)

What exactly is the difference between writing 'he's done the same thing for over a decade' and 'too many of the same synth'? It's exactly the same thing. You see, a signature sound is a signature sound and good for him for having that and sticking to it. One track every five months is perfectly fine, 13 tracks that all sound more or less the same released in one go simply isn't, nothing really stands out. And who reads terribly long essays here anyways? I'd rather keep my opinions short and strong!

[Doctor Dave]

Got to admit, the album hasn't immediately caught my interest after a first listen, but I am super happy that this style of music still exists and is being released by such big names, although of course with the caveat that it isn't exactly new music.

A couple of tracks definitely stood out over the others but I can't remember which ones will have to give it some more listens
