Took this cd a while to grow on me, but now i can't stop listening. For fans of the Locust, The Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza, and The # 12 Looks Like You.

If you like metalcore you MAY like this cd but, i feel its unlikely for most people.

First off this is a very well produced, recorded and written CD.

Lemme get to the gist.

There are going to be long intros for some of the songs, especially the later tracks. 13 Year old Ruby and the mexican Robendo song have really long intros and are quite boring until you get into the song.

I feel like they tried to be very...atmospheric. It was successful but I do not think its for everyone.

This is not like their prior CD. Its more structured with alot less Grind/rapid energy parts.

There are breakdowns, they're alot "slower" compared to the prior cd but they do exsist and are done quite nicely.

No clean vocals. Also, two vocalists both do a great job of working together.

So, keep in mind...this is a change from the last CD. Its well done, has some really great guitar but its an evolution and thats hard for some people to accept.

I personally thought this CD was just alright for the most part. I wouldn't miss it. I've got some favorites on there though and I will put it in my rotation from time to time.

enjoy!

excellent band with a swell name. i don't see how the previous reviewer could call this cd boring, even if you don't like it. the sound is completly progressive and it flows. a lot of the time when a band tries to get crazy it's not fluent. it's butter. this is the best hardcore band out right now, as well as the best cd of it's genre.

I first heard this band a few months ago through my cousin. While visiting my local FYE store, I decided to give it a go seeing as how there was nothing else appealing to me.

I can best describe their sound as See You Next Tuesday and The Number 12 Looks Like You mixed with The Locust. I like SYNT, but despise The Locust and #12 Looks Like You.

This cd is borderline boring. I can't say I'm a huge fan of the vocals, or the electro-grind parts. The sticker on the front of the cd compares them to Despised Icon and The Red Chord...ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?!!!? Those two bands are far superior to this band. Arsonists Get All The Girls just take the -core sound and add electro grind parts to it.

This cd is utter poop. Stay away.
