Wow I think Slave to Nothing is a masterpiece. Every song is great in my opinion. I still have my STN shirt from 2014 and the CD is still in my car's radio!
Slave to Nothing was actually the record that got me into FFAK, I think it was early 2016 when I found it through redditcore, and I instantly fell in love with y'all. That album will always hold a special place in my heart.
I'm not going to lie the recording of Slave to Nothing sounded like an awkward experience however I think it was a good learning experience that a band's cohesiveness is dependent on the relationship of each member.
A bit late to the party here, but personally Slave to Nothing is one of my favorite FFAK songs, I mean the "I hope you rot!!!" still gives me a chill every time and it was the song that got a few of my homies interested in y'all, I will admit tho overall the album was not as great as Creation/Destruction was. That said The Resistance is still my all time favorite its a straight banger of a song from the instrumentals to the lyrics, its a flawless song in my opinion and I do listen to both songs at least once every day especially during my workouts.
It's sad it never took off but Slave to Nothing was the album that got me into listening to you all. It's the one album where I loved every song and now know all the words to every song. I still love your current music and look forward to more but that album definitely has a special place in my brain and heart.
I think Slave To Nothing was a stellar album. The whole theme of that album actually got me hooked too. Shame that, like you say, it never took off. Wish you guys could at least play one of the songs from that album live.
Its my favorite album ever done from you guys, every song is great, the writing is fantastic, the mix is great, singing is awesome. 8 years later i always go back and listen to slave to nothing over any ffak album. A greater sense of self is the best ffak song, in my opinion.
Loved slave to nothing! Favorite track was Hooked and we blasted it over the stereo every weekend for a month. Sort of wish ffak could bring some of that style into new music. Although y'all are still dropping bangers. Much love from OKC 🔥
This album saved my life for sure...for me there is so much feeling in the some of the songs....my favorite is A greater sense of self....I love the emotion in the song
Selfish eyes is my favorite fit for a king song, saw them on tour for that record it was a very special show in houston with phinehas, silent planet, Gideon, fit for a king, and for today. I will never forget that show.
