No band in the world hits me the way Alexisonfire has...There is something about those melodic tunes and powerful screams that hits the heart. Its perfect...and the guitar parts are beautiful.

Music should not be this good. In a genre that is quickly becoming infested with cookie cutter, manufactured major label robots...this is a big breath of fresh air. Alexisonfire take hardcore to the next level. The melodies are amazing, all combined with the speed, intensity, and honesty hardcore should be known for. For fans of : Skycamefalling, Hopesfall, Beloved, Grade etc...I have listened to this album for a solid month now and like it more and more everyday. This band is here to help save hardcore...

This album is one of greatest to come out of the vastly increasing emo-metal scene. I feel like I am the only fan of alexisonfire in England, and I hope these guys make it big because I'm desperate to witness one of their notorious live shows. The screaming is a little rough, and drowns out Dallas's perfect emo voice a little too much, and I think george's screaming is used a lot more than necessary.

The big intro's add a good effect to the songs. My personal favourites are '44. Caliber Love Letter' and 'Polaroids Of Polar Bears', because both of these show alexisonfire's contrasting emotional and brutal sides.

I'd put alexisonfire on a par with Planes Mistaken For Stars and Thrice, and I'll be looking forward to future releases, and Dallas' forthcoming solo album.

I've been to a few Alexisonfire shows and they're so amazing live.The CD rocks my hurricane to extremely new and exciting levels as well though.They're just really talented.On some songs there's these really rad slightly longer than normal intros that I particularly like.It's all heavy and melodic at the same time.A beautiful thing really.Every song is really good but my favourites are "adelleda" and "little girls pointing and laughing".I can't really fully explain in detail my enjoyment for this CD right now but it was definitely worth my dollars and cents.Two very enthusiastic thumbs up.

This is an amazing cd, and I'll have to make it a point to see them live. I must warn you though, alexisonfire isn't for people who don't appreciate real music. If you like emocore, hardcore, and/or emo, get it. If you don't or haven't heard of the genres, buy it anyways. Water Wings is my favorite song on the cd. This cd comebines beautiful melodies and great emotional hardcore. It's worth your money.

BEST CD EVER! THESE GUYS ROCK, 44.CALIBER LOVE LETTER IS THE BEST SONG, I WENT TO THIER SHOW IN LONDON AT THE EMBASSY AND IT WAS KILLLER, THESE GUYS KICK A S S! EVERYONE SHOULD ENJOY THEIR TALENT MIXED WITH SCREAMING!

I heard all 3 of the singles that are on this album.. I liked all of them (and the videos too), and i have to say that this band impresses me...these guys are now my favourite Canadian band! I loved the intro on Polaroids Of Polar Bears, and that is probably my most fave intro ever!!

seriously i wasnt into screamo etc... at first i though george's screams were ruining that awesome album but after some listenning
i realized that it was totally included in the music as a whole(like ying yang stuff) : it couldnt be dumped...
great album overall and probably the best pick for a screamo's newbie
buy it u wont regret it

Alexisonfire is great. I first heard them a long time ago when they came out with there first single counter parts and number them. Alexis is a talented young band. I listen to this album every day it is one of the best things alive. Good job alexis. cant wait for there next cd.

I was never one to favor any scream-o bands until I heard alexisonfire. George is screaming out the lyrics "found on the website" But you cant figure out what Dalles quite says until you here it...Well if any one knows any Dallas lyrics to add in you should really post it :D..

Best songs I love on CD are "Little girls pointing and Laughing" and "Adella"
