I recently saw Most Precious Blood in concert and I bought this CD. I'm glad that I did. Guitarist Rachel and vocalist Rob signed it. Speaking of whom, Rob Fusco, formerly of One King Down, replaced former vocalist Tom Sheehan sometime after 2001's "Nothing In Vain" was released. Their vocal styles are very different, but I personally perfer Rob's vocal sound. This album's cover art depicting the virgin Mary with dynamite strapped around her stomach was very controversial. After meeting with R.E.D., Trustkill Records' distribution company, and refusing to change the cover art, the band was allowed to keep it as is but a sticker would be put on the shrinkwrapping at WalMart. Inside the CD case, along with the booklet there was a Trustkill Records insert, a petfinder.com insert, and a peta2.com insert.
The album opens with the explosive first single, "The Great Red Shift". It ends with the standout lyrics "Don't lie to me and say you'd die for me. What would you die for?" The track entitled "Your Picture Hung Itself" has a melodic chorus that goes "The more time passes by, the more I realize, you and I Were just a lie". This song also demonstrates Rachel and Justin's guitar chemistry. "So Typical My Heart" features legendary Sick Of It All's Lou Koller on vocals. The chorus contains the standout lyrics "No need to cut me open, I died of a broken heart". This album, just like "Nothing In Vain", has a total of ninety-nine tracks. There are eleven musical tracks, followed by thirty-seven tracks of four second silence. After that, there are a bunch of tracks where the band are talking and such. Some of these are rather funny. After that, there are some tracks of the bands side-project with dogs on vocals -- that's right, dogs on vocals. Four more tracks of silence and the great album is through.
All in all, this is definately one of the better releases of 2003. This is a must for any fan of Indecision or One King Down because it's much like a wonderful blend of the two.

4.0 out of 5 stars Uh!, December 8, 2003

I saw this band live a couple years ago and thought they were cool, but I didn't plan on checking out any albums or seeing them again. Didn't that change?!?....This album is great. A new singer, a stronger album, (and a f***in cool album cover, and that's comin from a catholic, albeit a somewhat confused one). Buy it, Burn it, Get it in ya.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good hardcore from Most Precious Blood, November 24, 2003

Well, I just bought the record and honestly, I think it's a great hardcore album. I am a hardcore fan ( Shai Hulud, Eighteen Visisons, Throwdown ) and this is one of the only records that I can sit down and actually listen to all the way through. The singer just puts so much passion in his singing and it's more than a hardcore album; it's a great buy.
