Spot on review. Props. I agree that the clean vocals should probably be removed.

Oh if your going for an average instead of a lower rating for this, I think it would be more appropriate to point out something they did right. If it had a 2.5 they probably had at least a couple of those moments but it seems like you didn't mention anything but negatives.

Thanks a lot. Yeah, this band would be much better with no clean vocals. I could see how this could read like a 2.0, but I dunno. I thought 'average' described this album better than poor; mainly because it's obvious that the band has the talent and ideas to be good.

Jigsaw is so weird. It changes tempo like 4 times in the first 30 seconds.



Haven't listened to everything yet but so far Walk Away is my favorite. I don't why you pointed it out as a negative. I love the way the melodic progression of the prec-chorus/chorus is constantly changing key, it's really beautiful in my opinion.



And yeah Let it go is pretty boss too haha

Yeah, there's decent instrumentation here but the two vocalists pretty much ruin it

The vocals are ruined by the awful production and dumb electronic effects they used on them



I also can't believe they ruined Let it Go

Yeah the biggest disappointment is Matts' vocals. They were so good on their debut but the way they're produced here is so fucking obnoxious.

Nice one, Betray. This is definitely a mess of bad ideas. Clean vocals are lacking, and none of the songs have any definitive identity.

Thanks man.



That's the second-biggest downfall of this album behind only the vocals.



There's so many different ideas and influences for each track here that the album as a whole comes off as a complete mess.

There is one part in Where The World Ends that could've already been in Breathe In Life. I love this one. The rest is pretty mediocre. Yet another mispurchase this year. *sigh*
