I can honestly say that I was a late-comer to these guys...I had not even heard of Carry On until I found out about their reunion shows two months down the line...That inspired me to research these guys and check out their music..I picked up A Life Less Plagued, and I instantly fell in love with them...The amazing vocals of Ryan George, combined with the old school hardcore feel riffs of Corey Williams and Todd Jones hooked me in...I recommend to all fans of old school and modern positive hardcore

In a hardcore scene dominated by generic sounding emo metal bands, it's good to see a record that brings back traditional hardcore with a positive message. Even though carry on has broken up and formed new bands (terror, piece by piece, among others), this record will prove to be one of the finest straight edge hardcore albums of all time. Todd Jones writes amazingly tight hardcore songs and the rest of the band are incrediably together as well. Pick it up, I listen to it at least two times in a row whenever I listen to it. It also features guest appearances by Wes from American Nightmare and Sweet Pete from In My Eyes. That makes it crucial enough to own anyways.

There are some records - precious few - that you just know are going to amaze you from start to finish, and leave you quivering in their wake. A Life Less Plagued is one such record. From the first second I even laid eyes on the closed jewel case, I knew that it was going to be killer. And it was every bit. Every song, every second, is an explosion of energy that reaches out of your speakers and into your heart. Sappy? Maybe. True? Absolutely. If you like youth-crew, positive, old school hardcore, this'll be right up your alley. Fans of In My Eyes, Ten Yard Fight, Bane, and other revivalist bands, your collection is not complete without this. For those still new to the path of the hardcore, let this be your next stop. In a word: UPLIFTING.

This album is incredible. Grabs you instantly and never lets up. Todd Jones has some of the meanest riffs and this album is no exception. Great Album!!!

i think the albums by CARRY ON are some of the best hardcore in the past 15 years...just awesome stuff!!
