It's emo, hardcore and punky all into one. Great, i can listen to these guys forever!

A++++ seller! Arrived extremely fast and in new condition as promised, particularly pleased of the quickness of the delivery, arriving in a timely fashion for a birthday gift. I would definitely buy from again and highly recommend this seller! ('^__~*')

glasseater is on e of the best cd's i have bought in a long time if you like punk music you have got to get this cd, these guys make great music and they have alot of talent. it is surley worth checking out!

Glasseater is one of those bands that experimented with their music in what many would call a hybrid of rock styles. Basically, it's punk-pop mixed with metal. So what you get is parts that sound pop-punk like (usually the chorus) with hard rock type verses, and screaming is thrown in where ever it sounds good. It's a great thing. Of course, it is now 2009 and TONS of bands are now doing the whole "scream-o" and melodic hardcore thing of screaming and singing (aka. clean and unclean vocals). But at the time, this album was one of the first to successfully combine punk-pop and metal (lol, if that's even possible).

All that said...my point is, this album is great. And not just because it's a milestone -in my opinion- for being one of the first to mix screaming & metal in with pop-punk; but because the songs are actually memorable and catchy. Truth be told, you may think some of the songs are a bit long, and coupled with the fact that those songs are usually mid-tempo doesn't help. But for the most part there are more hits than misses on 7 years bad luck.

What it has: metal breakdowns with screaming, melodic sing-along choruses (with screaming)

What it does NOT have: hardcore breakdowns, crazy super-fast blast beats (like many metal bands have nowadays)

I LIKED THIS ALBLUM ALOT. I CAN LISTEN TO IT ALL DAY!! AND NIGHT!!!!!! I GIVE IT 5 STARS OF 5 BECUSE OF THE ROCKING GUITARS AND SCREANMING IT MAKES ME WANT TO YELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL.(HAPPY YELLING)
