Although there isnt any way for you to review this cd before buying it (if u havent heard it before). If your someone who enjoys punk, and is willing to go out on a limb, then i strongly suggest you buy this cd.
I've only known of these guys for the last few months, but as soon as i heard the cd, i went and saw them. They would probly be the tightest live act ive ever seen, absolutely wicked! They tended to grow in potential as the crowd grew louder.
It is a new sounding style of punk, but to relate them to a band or 2, then i would have to say either Unwritten Law or New Found Glory. So if you're into either of them then i recomend this more so!
Best songs for me would probly be. Four Seasons... All the Same... and 60% intentional. but the whole album kicks!

l dont have this album but l have Aurora and l know that that ablum is AWESOME l probly listen to it nearly on a dayly basis l love all their songs l just need to get this album right now cant wait till they do some more gigs in sydney then lm there wheather l have to slap my mum to give me the money to go l would suguest u buy this album or aurora cause l pritty much garante that u will like them as much as l do.
my fav songs on aurora: beautiful in white,nothing to say,tried my wings and technology dictates

These guys definitely deserve a listen, good luck trying to find them online though, you gotta buy the CD it's worth it, or go to www.antiskeptic.com.au and you can read about them and listen to some low quality stuff there. Trust me they rock.

For debut album, it sounds like the group have been together over a decade and spent that time perfecting their sound. The truth is the band only formed 3 years prior to this release, with 2 EPs preceeding it. The quality of songwriting, musicianship and energy on this album is superb and is one of my all time favourite albums. It blends rock, punk and alternative styles to create a high-energy yet intellectual experience. Lyrically and musically the album could be compared to a punk rock version of the Red Hot Chili Peppers or Tool. Id give you my top 5 tracks, but to be honest every single song on this album is a credit to experience and each has its own story, its own style and intensity. I couldnt recomend this album more highly.

I personally havent listened to this cd but saw the band at Youth Alive about a month ago. And they were totally AWESOME! I'm planning on getting their cd(s). If you get an opportunity to see them live or buy their cd(s), take it. They totally rock!
