Editorial Reviews

With over 22 million plays on MySpace, three sold out U.S. tours and over 60,000 copies sold of their last album His Last Walk (2006), the story of blessthefall is already an impressive tale. Witness, the band's second album is a brain-blisteringly epic aural assault, combining their trademark stabbing riffs and soaring melody with a whole new energy. blessthefall has wowed crowds at Bamboozle, Warped Tour and Taste Of Chaos, and on the road with August Burns Red, Avenged Sevenfold, Atreyu and Silverstein. Their live attack continues throughout the Fall by co-headlining the Atticus Tour.

I love music. Rock and roll is one the greatest things ever invented my mankind as we know it... I love all kinds of rock, metal, and such... At first, I hated screaming... I thought that there was no talent in it, etc. Over the years, screaming has grown on me. Now I love it. When I first got into screamo, I listened to early Avenged Sevenfold and Killswitch Engage. As time went by, I came to love bands like All That Remains, The Devil Wears Prada, Attack Attack!, Underoath, Trivium, etc. One day my friend showed me blessthefall. I liked their original portrayal of the "screamo" style. It was catchy, just straight up rock. Amazingness. Then, I basically forgot about blessthefall as I listened to even more, newer hardcore groups, like Escape The Fate, and Threat Signal, and Scar Symmetry. Then, I read somewhere that blessthefall was making a new cd, and I thought it would be pretty interesting considering the change in blessthefall's line-up. So I bought the Witness the first day it came out, from amazon.com. All I can say, is this: I have listened to A LOT of rock. A lot of metal. And an UNGODLY amount of screamo... Witness is one of the BEST heavy metal albums I have EVER heard. From start to finish, the album's sound is simply captivating. Beau's voice is flawless. The screaming is better than before. The drums are an orgasm to the ears. The guitars are just mind-blowing. Everything is perfect. The balance of melody and sheer brute force is at the perfect equilibrium. The style is even more original than the first. The production is miles ahead of His Last Walk. One of the best albums in the hardcore scene to be released since The End of Heartache, or Ashes of the Wake, or even City of Evil. This cd is downright PERFECT. Like they said... THEY AREN'T DEAD. They are far from it. They are one of the best heavy bands of this decade. BUY IT NOW. Support and experience the next greatest hardcore act of our time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Holly Jumping Jesus On A Pogo Stick!, October 10, 2009

BUY THIS ALBUM! Oh, sorry, my Caps button was stuck. Seriously though, buy this album. BlesstheFall has been MIA for a bit in the album release respect, but this album makes up for that time and more. Opener "2.0" says it all with, "...We are not what they said; We are not dead..." Theses guys come in swinging with an album mashed with awesome guitar rifts and enough double pedal, bass trigger-ness to drive your folks up a wall, but allow you to relax in the rocking ambiance. Not a fan yet? Give this album a try if you enjoy Metal with a mix of Post-hardcore and just a touch of lighter rock. This is a well rounded band, with an even more well rounded album with a whole circular sound (I didn't want to say "well rounded" again.) BUY THIS ALBUM! Support your band!
