If you're sick of all the br00tal deathcore and metalcore that's popular these days, and you want a melodic alternative, check this band out. Lots of screaming to satisify the metalheads, but the death growls are replaced with clean vocals and the breakdowns with melodic open melodies. RIYL Life In Your Way, Grey Lines Of Perfection etc.

Compared to "Lay Waste the Poets" I find this CD somewhat disappointing. Not that it's bad; there are a few songs that I like a lot (Call to Arms, Angel of Lost Hopes, In the Wake of Loss). However, there is more "singing" on this album. Joey Trump's vocals are great as always though.

Dont waste your money on this one if you hate the trend of bands releasing softer cds for more mainstream appeal, which is exactly what IIB did with this one. I actually forget im listening to the cd which is never a good thing when listening to a hardcore cd. You wanna feel it and say "Wow! This breakdown is awesome." Instead I found myself saying,"Its over?" The tracks actually blend in together making one long soft song, and you dont even realize it. The songs don't differ from one another which is terrible. On there last Cd they made the cd in a way where the tracks would differ from hard breakdown tracks to soft singing tracks but all good. This one however has the first 3 tracks with the IIB feel than give you 7 tracks of zone out music, which is what I found myself doing every time i tried to give the cd another chance. They are one of my favorite bands so im hoping the cd grows on me but as for now i say stick with "lay waste the poets" and "awakening Vesuvius"
