These guys are really awesome! You should get their debut Prophets, but definitely get this too. They rock live and if you get the chance don't miss them!

4.0 out of 5 stars Superb December 15, 2011

This release is far more mature, intricate and unique than Prophets. While Prophets had it's moments, nothing really set it apart from other albums in the genre. The Current Will Carry Us should be a staple in any melodic hardcore fan's collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't listen to that goon that said this sucks December 15, 2011

This album is well thought out musically and lyrically. It is definitely an upgrade from their previous album. Don't listen to that loser that said there wasn't enough breakdowns, well, unless you judge an album by how many breakdowns there are. If that's the case then you should not even be allowed to listen to this band. They are better than that.

3.0 out of 5 stars Dissapointed compared to Prophets April 11, 2012

I have to agree with Big A-Bomb said. This album is no-where near as good Prophets. The sound quality is worse than their original album and isn't as unique as a whole. My advice is that if you are buying this album because of how good Prophets was, don't and just enjoy their first album as if they never made this one. When songs from this album pop up on shuffle, I wonder what bad song is playing only to realize it if from this album.

However, this album is not horrible, I just don't think it even compares to Prophets. If you are a hardcore fan, buy this album. If not, it's not worth the money or time.

2.0 out of 5 stars WTF? This is nowhere near their first album 'Prophets' October 30, 2011

By Big A-Bomb

WOW. I'm seriously disappointed in the effort on this album. It literally sounds like a ton of different instruments squealing down their own path with no collaboration amongst band members. Their last release 'Prophets' had me extremely excited to buy this album. That album had such good balance of hardcore guitar, breakdowns, and singing that made it so different from anything else I've heard before. This album has no singing at all, and no breakdowns... Just screaming over crazy amounts of annoying noise. Their next album needs to be much more thought through in terms of sound quality and collaboration between instruments. It's too much of a hodge-podge of crazy bad instruments in my opinion.

The sound quality on this CD is horrible. I can't believe how crisp their first release was compared to this. I feel like I can't even hear what he's saying half of the time. Melodic Hardcore isn't supposed to be easy to understand lyrically anyhow, but at least once in awhile would be nice.

I think people should really give this band a chance to amaze, but listen to 'Prophets' - their first album. I wouldn't even waste time on this. I'm truly bummed out, especially since I thought they would have a promising release due to their signing with Victory Records. Boy, was I wrong!
