Another example of trying, thinking the failure is on my part. Pallbearer put out one of the greatest rock albums of all time (IMHO) with 2017’s Heartless; I still contend “I Saw the End” has one of the truly great metal solos of the 2000s, and both “Dancing in Madness” and the title track show the breadth of the band’s sonic vision. But nothing else truly connected with me, despite owning the original Foundations of Burden on CD as well as all the band’s follow-ups on vinyl. When the 2025 remix came out last year, I made a decision to take one last plunge: maybe the new mix would win me over? Let’s get into it after the jump, and maybe talk about efforts like this in the process.
