Totally missed this in 2020. Seen Polaris live in Wiesbaden with Northlane before this album was released, the performance was crazy. The Death Of Me is a great addition to modern Metalcore. Catchy hooks, sweet melodies, heavy heavies and feely feelies. Pray for Rain, Masochist, Above My Head, Martyr (Waves) - all bangers. Production quality has been improved too. I'm not listening to much core these days, but this album should not be missed out on. David Fischer
A metalcore album that managed to convince me that there's something worth listening to in the genre. Sheer aggression mixes with moments of odd beauty to create an atmosphere that draws me in again and again. darkkarnitool

Featuring founding vocalist Jesse Zaraska for the first time since 2004, the Milwaukee veterans' seventh album is a metalcore monster. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 12, 2020
I remember I first found this band when someone posted "Devil is Fine" in a metal thread. My first thought was "is someone seriously calling this metal"? Once I listened through it through I realized this is amazing. ganondox
