The Generation of Danger
The Generation of Danger  is the second studio album by American nu metal band Tallah. It was preceded by five singles: "Telescope", "The Impressionist", "Shaken (Not Stirred)", "For the Recognition", and "Dicker's Done". Concept 
Much like Matriphagy, The Generation of Danger is a concept album. Lead vocalist Justin Bonitz has firmly stated that the storylines of each album are entirely distinct from each other, with similarities and references in said albums only existing as Easter eggs and having no deeper connection. The story focuses on a mad scientist who works on behalf of a large corporation. He becomes increasingly frustrated due to his revolutionary inventions and discoveries being credited to the company rather than himself, eventually leading him to force the company to take part in "the greatest experiment the world of science has ever seen". Metaphorically, the storyline deals with "people hiding what they truly desire until someone else comes along and forces it to surface". A full breakdown of the story by Bonitz can be found on the band's official YouTube channel. Release 
On March 9, 2022, they released the single and music video "Telescope", and announced the title of the album, The Generation of Danger, along with the original release date of September 9, 2022. The band supported All That Remains on their spring 2022 US tour that began on March 12, 2022, in Worcester, Massachusetts. On April 19, 2022, they released the second single off the album, "The Impressionist" with a music video. In August 2022, they announced that the album's release would be pushed back to November 18. On September 1, 2022, they released "Shaken (Not Stirred)" as a single with a music video. On October 13, 2022, they released the single "For the Recognition" with a music video. On November 10, 2022, they released the fifth and final single "Dicker's Done". The album was released on November 18, 2022. The initial announcement of the album was paired with the release of a promotional browser game bearing the album's title. Composition  
The Generation of Danger has been described as nu metal, metalcore, hardcore punk, and deathcore. According to Max Morin of Metal Injection, vocalist Justin Bonitz's goes from "jibbering like a maniac, spitting rap bars, shredding his throat with pig squeals or finding his inner arena rock frontman, he might be the most unpredictable member of the band." Eli Enis of Revolver stated, "Over 13 songs, the band explore a ferocious fusion of early Slipknot intensity — spitfire vocals...and modern hardcore savagery à la Vein.fm and Knocked Loose." Metal Injection also noted influences from bands like Code Orange and Knocked Loose. According to Eli Enis of Revolver, The Generation of Danger is a "sci-fi [concept album] about a crazed genius, featuring nine different characters that [vocalist Justin Bonitz] portrays with a variety of unique vocals." Reception 

Max Morin of Metal Injection wrote "Any fan of the last twenty years of metal should find something to like about The Generation of Danger. Tallah is about as subtle as a bunch of cavemen beating a drum kit with rocks, but they're so dedicated to the chaos that it's admirable." Simon Valentine of Wall of Sound called it "a frenetic album that both salutes the old guard but offers up their signature sound as the new normal." Track listing
