4.0 out of 5 stars Stunned., July 4, 2004

By	lipgloss_and_letdown "lipgloss_and_letdown" (Singapore) - See all my reviews

When the bought this cd, i expected a carbon copy of alexisonfire first record after hearing 'Accidents'. But this is totally different from the self titled debut. As you probably have read, or heard, alexisonfire sing on this album. A whole lot of singing. Very good vocals, and at times you just wonder if this is the same band. Also, its obvious they have taken critics advise and cut down the long intros, which i honestly didnt mind. But this album doesnt have many long intros compared to the selftitled.

I would defiently recommended this for fans of Emery, because at times they sound a lot like the mellow side of Emery. This album is brutal, melodic, and beautiful all at the same time. I would rate this one the best of 2004 alongside the Emery record.

Overall, a very good album, and the recording sounds 1000x better then the self titled. Alexisonfire have moved to a different direction with this. Hardcore fans might miss all the screaming though.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best thing out of Canada since...., February 13, 2005

By	s.a. huxley (Seattle, Washington) - See all my reviews

I don't see how anybody with half a brain can label this great band to be "sellouts." They have such a different sound that is all their own, with impressive guitar solos, interesting lyrics, and interchangeable vocals, which oscillate between George (the screamer in the songs) and Dallas (the guy who actually sings--and has a good set of pipes on him too).

My first love will always remain ".44 Caliber Love Letter"--the opening guitar riffs blew me away, what other band does that, it ran 2 minutes before vox set in (well, besides Isis...). But "Watch Out!" has gems of its own. Actually, they are all excellent and are definitely worth repeats. This band deserves more attention than perhaps others that are gaining hype over tired and used methods... Unwritten Law... plus, let us not forget Alexisonfire is Ontario's internationally-issued apology for the mishappenstance that was Avril Lavigne.

5.0 out of 5 stars what a progression..., July 21, 2004

By	G. Barth "knowledgable guy" (College Station, TX, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

First of all, do NOT go into this album expecting anything similar to what alexisonfire have done before. This album represents a huge musical growth for them. There is quite a bit more clean vocal use than there was in previous efforts. The song structure is less generic as well. However, this is a good thing. The clean vocals are VERY good. There is still plenty of screaming to satisfy your urge for that component of alexisonfire, though. This album is very deep and feels quite honest. This is a big step forward for this band in the quest to seperate themselves from the recent plethora of bands attempting to create a combination emo/hardcore sound. Definitely an album to pick up.
