Above This Fire In Perspective
The only problem I have with this album is the reliance on Above This Fire's own personal formula for every song. While I love so many songs to this cd, none are completely unique besides the stereotypical instrumental. That being said, I love this cd and recommend it to anyone who enjoys hardcore or metal-influenced hardcore. Favorite Tracks: When Screams Go Silent, Designing A Requiem, Reaction, and Miles Apart		4.5

Cockpunch "Attack"
It's not often I find myself enjoying minute-long songs, but this band is an exception. The songs are short, sweet and melf perfectly with the band and what it represents. A humorous, but serious take on straight-edge hardcore music. Definitely give them kudos for using a Roseanne sound clip too 		3.5

Recon (USA-NY) Graves
While I love or loved this band for a very short intense period, I can't bring myself to rate this any higher than a 3. It is definitely a GOOD cd; however, there are quite a few cons such as poor production and simplistic redundance. I love songs like Burn This City(Intro), Nowhere To Run, Thirteen, This Is Real, etc, but still recognize this band's flaws and place them where they should be. Right in the middle. Not mediocre, not classic. Just GOOD 		3.0

Casey Jones The Few, The Proud, The Crucial
I still don't know which cd I like more, this or The Messenger. Either way, this cd impresses me throughout. Fun lyrics about friendship, tough guys, drug use, and many other great topics. The Family Guy sound clips definitely add in an extra bit of humor too. I may possibly review this in-depth later. One of my favorite edge cds by far		4.0

Definitely not "classic" material, but still a very good metalcore release. It has its moments for sure, I still can't enjoy it all the way through though		3.0

Unearth The Oncoming Storm
Besides a few songs on this cd, this album is a classic and I'm not afraid to say it. The songs all have a unique aspect to them and vocals are the only part to Unearth that seem to be nothing special. However, this release is definitely a must for any metalcore fan. The Oncoming Storm has decent lyrics, occasional solos, spectacular song dynamics and the ability to not sound generic. Many contend that metalcore is too formulaic, but this album definitely trys to debate that point by having unique breakdowns and songs typically without filler.		4.5

Sum 41 Chuck
Even though I'm typically cemented in hardcore, I cannot rag on this cd. It has catchy guitar riffs, quick and fun guitar solos, gang vocals (No Reason), breakdowns (I'm Not The One) and countless other aspects that keep this cd fresh and new. It's still one of my favorite pop-punk releases because it implements the best parts to other genres and does not come off as cheesy. The lyrics are nothing spectacular, but who cares? I know I most certainly don't 		4.0
