Review
Spiritbox totally level up with their second album, "Tsunami Sea," blending metalcore, alternative metal, and djent with an experimental edge that’s honestly addictive. You can absolutely hear them playing around with genres—one minute there’s electronic and drum and bass chaos, then out of nowhere, some pop or EDM vibes sneak in. Songs like "Perfect Soul" totally hit that sweet spot between in-your-face riffs and catchy hooks you can’t get out of your head. Plus, the industrial moments make you wanna headbang and rave at the same time—like, why choose just one?
Courtney LaPlante just owns every second with her voice, flipping from angelic to full beast mode screams without missing a beat. It’s wild how she fits right in with the band’s wall-of-sound energy and all those unexpected melodic or atmospheric twists. Especially in the emotional last tracks, things get real vulnerable but still sound absolutely gorgeous. You get a taste of their sensitive side without losing that heavy Spiritbox edge.
Honestly, "Tsunami Sea" shows Spiritbox refuse to play it safe, tossing every genre in their arsenal into the mix without making it a mess. It’s the kind of album that’ll get both mosh pits and dancefloors moving, offering up plenty of headbang fuel with just enough feels to keep you coming back. For anyone obsessed with heavy music but wanting more color and emotion, this release is gonna be on repeat. Spiritbox prove they’re here to stay, and I’m SO here for it. 🤘💙 - Tori
