5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing, amazing, amazing, June 27, 2005

I've loved these guys since I first heard them, and this album is just fantastic. They're all talented musicians, and their songwriting ability blows me away. Songs move from a spastic breakneck pace to a slow melodic breakdown and back again in an instant. Their two vocalists have incredible range and power. If you like grindy stuff like Ed Gein, TDTE, etc., check this out -- every bit as powerful and much more fun.

PLEASE, don't just download this and copy it for all your friends. Pay for it. These guys work too damn hard and they've put together an album that shows how dedicated they are.

I first was introduced to this band when they opened for my friends in Sawtooth grin. I couldn't quite put a finger on it then but i knew there was something about this band I dug so i kept going to check them out. Their last cd "Put on your rosey red glasses" launched them nationwide and for good reason as it was a well produced cd by a band that played technical music very well. This cd finds the band going for a full length, and on this release they seem more at home. This disc remeinds me a lot of Converge's "Petioning the Empty Sky" as the band sounds very fragile and vunerable well unleashing out a crushing sound much like Converge did. They also have added new elements to their sound as they have grown as a band, and have become more better song writers as well. "Like a Cat" is a good example of this. They seem a lot less like a trend and more like a mainstay with this release. The guitar work on this cd is a lot different from their last as it sounds a lot different tone wise, plus a lot more solo work is involved, showcasing Alex's great skill. The only thing that doesn't seem to jump out as much on this release is their dual vocalist attack, other than that, this is definetly one of the best underground releases of the year. I'm giving it a 4.5.

This release is absolutely amazing. This is a perfect release for those who are looking for something new and original, or those who enjoy chaotic yet melodic metalcore that borderlines on technical. Yeah, there are lots of chaotic metalcore bands any more, but this has something that sets them apart. They are actually talented musicians. The guitarists find space to put in an amazing solo-esque riff in between all the chaos, the drummer is insane, and the vocalists (yes, there are two) write interesting lyrics and intensify their music with the dual-vocal attack. It's really an incredible album. This was one of the most sought-after metalcore bands of the new millenium before being signed to Eyeball, and hopefully now they can get the respect they deserve.
