For the uninitiated:



This is a song by this world-famous band:

And this is a YouTube video posted before that band's debut album, featuring a band from

my local area:

In before Knott 1's this. Ahhh, too late.



Spec, I presume you have already found out this is not heavier than their previous release. It's not as heavy, nor as catchy.



Phideaux, try this album then. It's more Lostprophetsy.



It looks like some people like this more than 'TBiTown'. I am with you on the uncertainty of the lasting value of this AnarchistFish.



You continue your unpredictability LG.



Thanks MO. Great avatar.

Thanks man. Just going by your sound-off, it seems that our opinions of the 2 albums are almost identical.

Yeah, they do sound almost identical...too much so for it to be a coincidence or a case of a song that just slipped into their minds when they wrote 'Save Our Selves' and influenced their writing.

Even the vocal melody and rhythm sounds the same in some parts...

Still, I didn't like The Best in Town; this is much better.

I'll forgive you Thomas...



But like NorwichScene says, I think most will look upon this as a mixed bag.



X3ni92, you have to like the closer... Surely!



Yeah, I have been reviewing mainly post hardcore'ish music of late. Must change that up soon. I need a rest from reviewing though. 8 in March. I need to be drug tested.

I say the album is just gold. I couldn't really get into their last album, except for shutthefuckuppercut
