No. It's that bad. It represents regression and superficiality.



Vocals are fucking weak BECAUSE they are overproduced.

if the songs are concise, played well, and enjoyable, then what exactly is the problem with this

(over-exaggerated) genericism?



---



That's why a scale of judgement exists in the first place. An album that brings out nothing can

achieve at least a "great" rating. This is not fresh, this is not great, this is average at its best

. In a site mostly populated by elitists and people who throw 1.5 at everything "for teh lulz", the

main review of this disc baffles me: this pure and plain mainstream metalcore coming out from a Rise

Records band. Where is this supposed "fantastic guitar work"? Have you ever heard a fantastic guitar

work? Praise to Mullins' growl? All I hear is basic overproduced stuff (which is, unfortunately, the

norm nowadays) which I don't know how would sound live (with all the harmonies blasted by the stereo

and blabla) as I've yet to see them live (saw some videos, can't judge).



TL;DR: overenthusiastic review made by a blatantly fan of the band and of mainstream/chuggy-chorus

friendly metalcore.

I don't give a shit how "well done" something is, if I've heard it thousands of times before, I won't like it



If you listen to generic crap...at least admit it

Lol I don't listen only to Memphis May Fire. I also prefer my music to bring something new. I won't say it's bad just because I've heard that sound before, that's just the difference between you and me. Don't need to be so mean about it.

This album is why I cant stand this genre most of the time. This band is one of the most generic bands around. Their only saving grace is that they at least sound somewhat decent live.

One of the most generic bands around? Ever heard of those bands who don't even have fucking guitar riffs? Like 80% of other today's metalcore?

So it's excellent because it's not brainless drivel?

Sleepwalking was fun. This is...depressing.

Granted, it's pretty generic for a metal album since most metalcore these days sounds similar.

Though 'Prove Me Right' and a couple others on here have awesome riffs and breakdowns that are ACTUALLY TOLERABLE. (And that's saying something)
