Acres - The Host (2025)

The album delves into themes of addiction and inner turmoil, with tracks like "Bloodlust" and "Built To Bleed" blending ambient atmospherics with heavy riffs. Critics have praised the album's concise structure, noting its seven tracks deliver a powerful impact without unnecessary filler. While some songs like "Your Goodbye" and "Around Again" introduce lighter, more melodic elements, they provide a refreshing contrast to the heavier compositions. Overall, The Host stands as a compelling addition to Acres' discography, reflecting their growth and willingness to push genre boundaries.
