Haha, oh? Realizing I'm falling for troll bait, which scores would you disagree with? I really hope this isn't about Issues, because it takes a special immaturity to think one album review by one band affects another.
I was clearly joking, c'mon now. I should've added more exclamation marks on that one.
1. The chug-chug riffs are so fucking repetitive, if they don't let their lead guitarist go and replace him with someone with talent then I'll know they truly don't care. Even AAS sounds a hundred more times interesting than this, what the hell is Paiano doing
2. Some of the least inspired lyrics ever. Doriano sounded better with TO!, now he just sounds like a cliche, and Hance's vocals are too overproduced to sound good, despite whatever true talent he may have.
3. Thornton's image for this band is just horrible, if this sound and 'pissed off at the world' lyrical theme is his idea of good music then it really is no wonder why most of the musicians he's ever worked with have parted ways with him over creative differnces.
this band is a joke to me, but to be honest i think the worst part of this album is the lyrics. They are so cliche that they ruin the music (which is hard to do) and the music is pretty good on this album. The production is fantastic, they spent a lot of money, and the playing is superb, but this guy's lyrics are awful.
I think this is the worst thing I've ever heard that wasn't supposed to be a joke... Every song sounds exactly the same except for the last one. Please don't listen to this and DON'T waste you time.
For anyone who likes this album, I'd be happy to provide you with a list of heavy albums that are infinitely better.
I would love to hear what you think is a good heavy album so I can laugh. You RIYL this to "everything wrong in the world" then turn around and give that issues band (another by the numbers, equally shit band in shit genre) a 70%. Its ALL the same tired old crap that boring bands have been putting out over and over.
I've been going with ETID, Letlive, Night Verses, and a few others. Thoughts? I want to make sure I'm suggesting bands that could legitimately draw their interest.
Stray From The Path.
For something a little closer to that sound, Destroy the Runner or Art By Numbers? Maybe The Human Abstract?

Just curious any idea what this album is supposed to sell in its first week? Alot of scene bands have been having relatively good first week sales, and I know w,im was getting really popular but I feel like this album will turn away more people than you think.

Apparently it didn't chart at all. I also went to their headlining tour and a lot of people seemed to leave before they came on.
