Return to Form

By DevBrawl
Both of AN's albums from 2015 disappointed me, both feeling unmemorable and lacking emotion. This EP shows me that the emotionally-driven music is coming back. Each song may be a bit similar in structure, but all 5 give a very different feel, my favorites being Exhilarate and Falling Down. My only flaw is that it wasn't a full album, but as an EP it is great. This is the best work from AN since Reboot and a sign of great things to come.
Very good

Exhilarate (ft. Mk) is a good, catchy track. but the vocals aren’t that good. 4.5/5
Ethreal is a very laid-back, chill DnB track, with alot of bass and cool elemants. 5/5
Madeira has a great progressive-house drop, but the intro is very long. Even then, the drop still makes up for that. 5/5
Eyes on You is an amazing piece of DnB, with all the elements mixing together, the piano, the drop, the bridge, and jus the whole song. 5/5
Falling Down is the best track on the EP. just listen to the drop. Amazing. It is a melodic dubstep track with amazing chords, and it flows nicely. 5/5
Overall, 5/5
Felt Like A Misstep

Honestly, I thought two of the songs were good, one of them eh, the others sounded more annoying than anything else. As an Approaching Nirvana fan since the days of Subliminal Message, I like the content they produced from ANimals to Reboot the best. I understand things will be different with the absense of Sam, but I wish Approaching Nirvana would return to its original style of music from about two/three years ago. This album is alright, but it felt like a misstep.
