I think this album is fairly good, but i wouldn't listen to it regularly. I find the vocals to be a bit tiresome. The idea of yelling instead of screaming isn't bad but it didn't seem to work for me at least. cool guitar and music but not a great overall flow.

No where near as good as Cryonics. Listen to a few tracks to check out their new sound before you decide to buy it

I'd say this album is more post-hardcore rather then Scr(emo) unlike their earlier works.

With that said this is a great album but doesn't come even close to the greatness of Fair Trades.

Also people saying this is a dissappoint, they lost Josh which would cripple the songwriting of the band.

It crippled them so much they need him to re-produce/mix the album cause they didn't like how it came out prior.

So I'd say Hawt Crass did a great job compersating by adding more emphasize on vocals and hey this album still shreds.

That's what a lot of people lost sight of with this album. Yeah it's not amazingly original like Cryonics was, but it's just like the opposite progression that Fair Trades took.

Fair Trades > Cryonics



I just wish it was longer (like everyone else).

Better a Corpse is good but it's hella overrated. I personally think Prepare/Repair and Throw Collars to the Wind are better though.



However, Pretty Picture of a Broken Face and Blame Truth are the best Hot Cross songs.

Fortune Teller, Pretty Picture and A Tale For The Ages FTW. Although I haven't heard this whole album...

Well it must be me, cause I'd still say Fair Trades is their best release.



But I'm a sucker for technicality so what can you do.

I really like this album.

Turncoat Revolution kicks my ass, and then gives it a band-aid.


It's a good thing.

It's a great album. After shitty Norma Jean song, a really poor choice from Fear Before's new album, "Exits and Trails" was really refreshing to hear on my university radio station last night.

This album is cool.

Off Minor is the best in the Saetia trio.



And Cryonics is way better than this, but it's an enjoyable listen.
