NIV's new CD is fast, furious, and heavy! They combine lyrics about the scene with lyrics of their faith in a most unashamed way. They are a little to fast however. The album's 12 songs clock in at just 26 minutes. I will say that every second of these songs are good. "Flesh And Blood" "My Beliefs" "Whitewashed Tomb" and "Till the end" are the highlights. This CD is for fans of Hatebreed, Agnostic Front, and Stongarm.

I'm giving this CD 5 stars even though I think the cover artwork is a little bit silly. This is brutal, floor-punching, lace-up-those-boots hardcore at its best. A very welcome switch from many current hardcore bands' attempts to sound evil and scary (though some of them do it very well). Give this a listen if you want to hear some definitive hardcore. The more recent "Tipping the Scales" is also great. These guys are currently one of my favorites...

I have always been a fan of NIV, but this release is by far the greatest. Fast, furious, and heavy, this release never stops moving. Jason's vocals are much more brutal on this album. The one dissapointment is the lower volume for the bass. However, this album is one that every hardcore fan should own. I'm excited about NIV's chance to spread the gospel to those who need it most with their signing to victory records. This release should take them far as it is one of the best hardcore releases to come out in the world for quite some time.

I have all of NIV's albums, and this one is by far the best one they have put out, songs like "CEB", "My Beliefs" and "All For The Color" are awesome hardcore.

No Innocent Victim keeps it true to its old skool hxc roots while mixing it up with a little new school hardcore that has been surfacing the past couple years. Nevertheless, it is NIV at its best, they tear it down with thier fast energetic songs mixing flowing bass lines with razor edged guitars. This is a perfect album for fans of: Born Blind, Stretch Arm Strong, Blindside, Hatebreed, and Madball.

I've heard a lot of NIV and this is the best. Staying true to their convictions.

If you like fast brutal hardcore, make sure to pick up this CD. This sounds like Madball and Hatebreed fighting in a dark alley!

NIV'S 3rd cd has a great hardcore sound it rocks star to finish and if your fan you must check out this cd i hope rescue will reisuse the first 2 cds though cause they were even better than this one but NIV fans need check this 1 out anyway

this cd is awesome. this was one of those cd's that i had to listen to for a while before i got to like it but its great. after listening to a lot of hXcpunk bands like sick of it all, blood for blood, madball, stretch armstrong, etc, i'd have to say these guys are the best (stretch is awesome too). this album kicks serious butt, go buy it. if you have a chance to see these guys live go do it, you won't be dissapointed.

This CD probally has the best beakdowns you will ever here, if you like great hardcore with beats you can tear up the floor with, this is your CD. Even though it's kind of short it is the best CD that N.I.V. has put out yet. The best thing on the CD is the lyrics, even though they are no longer on a Christian label, they still put Christ first, and they let people know what they belive. In the song "My Beliefs" the main point of the song is " I would die tonight for my beliefs". If you don't have this CD buy it.
