| 4.5 superb | armenia4ever | July 2nd 13 |
The only thing keeping this from a higher rating was the production which I found lacking.
Some of the "techiness" in the riffs on this EP are astoundingly catchy. It's aggressive
and heavy, but isn't plagued by an overabundance of breakdowns.
Now we saw traces of some of the "tech riffage" on songs like "Dealers of Fame" of Children
of Fire, but this EP abounds with them. This is definitely an EP you want to listen to a
few times through to really enjoy it for what it is. rShane's vocals continue to stand out
when compared to most of the metal coming out these days.

A wonderful EP. Not as large or emotional as Children of Fire, but a solid release none-the-less. Excited for the follow up release!

Not what I've come to expect from these guys. Every album to date has felt emotional and set a very specific tone.. this EP does neither. Maybe I should give it a few more listens, but my first impression is very underwhelmed.

Continues upon Children of Fire, showing Oh, Sleeper at their finest. Some of their best work to date.

FUCK is this awesome. Oh Sleeper always delivers. Christcore of the past two years has been awesome, so I bet even new Norma Jean will be cool.

Pretty good. Production is obviously lacking due to self-production and the emotion seems to be lacking. Instrumentation is solid, the technical riffs are surprisingly catchy and everything else is fairly spot on. Harsh vocals are some of the best, but don't seem to have direction such as in CoF if that makes any sense.

The Rise is totally awesome. Honestly, I'm super impressed with this EP given the time they had to do this. Production could use some more work, but again, given the time constraints, etc., this is really good. Stoked for the other half of this concept in the 2nd EP to come.

Not nearly as good as CoF. There's something missing, I don't even really know what it is,
but none of the songs had the impact that songs on CoF had. The best song on the album is
Shane's nearly solo song, Heavy Hands. Shane is fucking awesome but his ballad shouldn't be
the album highlight.
If you're expecting songs on par with Endseekers or Hush Yael you will be let down.

Oh, Sleeper does not fail to impress. Phenomenal ep. Has everything you could ask for. complexity. simplicity.
it goes soft. it goes hard. Naofumi Mitsuhashi is a banger of an opener - catchy and aggressive - doesn't fuk
around with cleans. The pitch travels along similar lines, but its worse. Death from Above has one of Oh,
Sleeper's catchiest choruses. Heavy Hands is just fuking dope. The Rise finishes hard and strong. Heavy Hands
is one of my contenders for songs of the year thus far (though its maybe too early to tell just how much I like
it)
