I actually really like this album. I love the songs Nothing left, Forsaken, and An Ocean Between us. Good stuff.

Forsaken, The Sound of Truth, and Wrath Upon Ourselves are my favorites. Nothing Left is actually my least favorite tbh.

wtf... this album is amazing, the new clean vocalist is great, i feel his screams have gotten much better since FWC. plus i am a thrashy guy, and when i listened to this album.. its so close to being as good as fall of ideals or darkened heart, i say there best release. this should at least be in teh 4 zone.

This album is a masterwork. Amazing musicianship and very professionally produced.



(Seems to me that this is the best produced thrash album made so far.I've never heard thrash with such a refined sound.)

The album is good for sure, but I don't know about masterwork. I'm looking forward to their next outing.

The fact that you put Forsaken in the top 3 songs on this CD is key, that song is so fast, and so sick. The clean vocal melodies are incredibly catchy and the guitar riff near the choruses (it's in a higher register than most of the other riffs in the song) is like the best thing I've ever heard.

An Ocean Between Us (the song) I feel is also a major highlight, it's been my ringtone for years, the guitar during the chorus is inspired by God himself...and I'm an atheist, but that riff just may convince me of divine inspiration...

I like your review, but I do think this CD is better than "good."

I wasn't hearing that blistering solo. No insult to your opinion on whats "blistering" as far as solos concerned, but yeah...I do love the lead, its excellently executed, its complex, its fast enough, and not overdone. The rhythm has to be some of the most brutal and aggressive pure thrash I've ever heard. You don't say that very often. I'm honored to have this album in my music library.

for contemporary metalcore, i'd say it's on the money.
