The first four tracks on this are iconic. I tend to start zoning out during Pretty Soon and then the back half tends to be a blur (a good blur, albeit).

Yeah that was really annoying. I basically knew to always skip the first paragraph of a metalcore review.

Pretty Soon is an underappreciated masterpiece.

I think the comparison is stupid too. always thought this had more in common with coalesce or zao, if anything, than botch. But to say this band is just aping another one of their contemporaries sells this album short of unique and distinctive it actually is

I was so blown away by finding out these guys were Christian when I was 14 because this album sounds evil. Instead of writing hopeful anthems about Jesus like underoath Josh scogin is writing laments for the dead. Apocalyptic dirges of a planet gone too far. "For all I care set this world all ablaze" this is fire and brimstone

and totally agree. scogin is such a great songwriter. the chariot debut is incredibly apocalyptic sounding as well.

hell yeah man. this album and the chariot were a big part of my branching out in music. Can't believe I waited so long to check out luti-kriss. Pretty sure it was you who urged me to futures
