Perhaps with more listens I'll find something truly unique, but it's rather boring to sit through. Throwing in a flute is not unique, it's tossing in a gimmick to try and sound unique for the sake of attempting to be unique. Harsh vocals are good and enjoyable, but Keene's cleans are just so cringe worthy that it takes a lot away from the music and makes it hard to listen to. Seriously Keene, we get it, you think you are great at singing and you are trying to flaunt it. Just stop, it sounds far too forced and out of place. I honestly don't mind cleans in a lot of other death metal albums, but it's not done well here.

I really enjoyed this album. The addition of more clean singing is amazing. I like having a mix between both harsh and clean vocals.

Definitely best album of the year thus far. Don't listen to people saying it's an unmemorable album. All of the tracks are memorable and have their strengths. Instant Classic, cannot stop listening to it =)!

After the Burial In Dreams4.0
This is a very short album and it is this albums only downfall. It doesn't change my rating of the album though. It is a very well thought out album with 8 extremely solid songs that do not get old. The clean vocals are amazing and flow very well with all the songs. Very pleased they pulled off the clean vocals. Anthony's screaming is just incredible and his super high pitched screams (like in Pendulum) are absolutely incredible. I will enjoy this (as well as all ATB's previous albums) for years to come. Been a fan of After the Burial since the beginning =) Guitar work is amazing, more thought out song structures, great solos/sweeps, amazing drum work, amazing bass work; everything is as solid as it can be. No doubt in my mind 5/5!!

Anybody who says this is "generic" obviously are deaf. There is nothing generic about this album at all. Everything is so unique. And whoever said that "They have clean vocal chorus's" should look up the word chorus. All I hear are background clean vocals that compliment each song respectively. This album is very progressive and very new. No regression present at all.

Recommended Songs:

- Promises Kept
- Encased In Ice
- Pendulum

** Note these are recommended songs, I love all the songs on the album for a different reason these just seem to be my "top" favorites (if you will) right now. **
