This completely surprised me!, September 7, 2008
This is one of those albums you borrow (or whatever) from a friend, relative, co-worker, because they probably nagged you to death saying it totally kills! Well I'll let you know that it does. This is one of those CD's that has you thinking, "Where the heck did these guys come from, and why don't I already own this!" The music is completely technical, fast paced, and changes often. It never get's boring, and it completely rocks you. You might argue the track "Price we pay" gets old, but it's written that way. The singer has one of the most impressive vocal ranges i've heard, and even more impressive is that one singer does all this. The drums are interesting and completely pound. The guitars and bass are meticuously done, well written, and all seems to have it's place. Nothing sounds forced, or badly arranged. This is a very flowing, very interesting sound. All the tracks sound different than the other, offering refreshing changes throughout the CD. The CD starts out with a little bit of hardcore flavor, then becomes a fast, metalcore sound, I feel. This sounds nothing like the bands amazon compares this with, nothing like panic at the disco, so if you like that radio pop, you won't like this, because this stuff is brutal. Some of my favorite tracks are "monument," the remake of "since you been gone," and my personal favorite is "start the shooting." The slow song "Price we pay" is the 6th track, a kinda intermission if you will, to get a rest, get a drink, and continue to thrash on throughout the CD. I feel bad i've just heard this, this is something you want, even if you don't know it yet.

Pretty Good, April 18, 2008
I heard of these guys on a Victory sampler when I bought a Thursday cd. The reissue is pretty cool it comes with a DVD that shows the personalty of each member and shows them hanging out and recording the reissue. Towards the end of the cd it gets kinda enh, but the first half is amazing and has really catchy songs. The bonus song is cool but way to short. All in all it's a really good cd.
