I have a feeling this album will be criminally overlooked. It is as experimental as it is bombastic, powerful and very emotionally charged.

This album is keeping up good, I Destroyed and In regret still rule. Every time I listen to this I enjoy it more.

These guys would be really great with a new scream vocalist

Nothing wrong with the harsh vocalist, he just choose the wrong genre. Put the guy in a skramz band and no one would have complained.

Really don't see where people are getting the idea that The Elijah are post-rock...

If you listen to the music there is clearly a strong post-rock influence in there. The drumming, guitar, and song structure are all very similar to a lot of post-rock. I don't get why people are so upset about that comparison. I like the album a lot, It just blends together a bit too much for me to go above a 3.5 I think.

"I Destroyed" is brilliant and this album as a whole is pretty good, but it comes off to me as a bit of a lesser Devil Sold His Soul...

I've never seen a band be so poetic with their song titles. Should be cheesy, but I am left only intrigued.

Album is great.

Review not so much. A ton of grammatical errors.

the one thing that really holds me back from loving this is that it's trying way too hard to squeeze an emotional response out of the listener



the way it keeps re-using the same 'soul stirring' chord progressions and melodies with the dramatic synth under it all the time, the band really needs to learn restraint with it



i do love how everything sounds but the simplicity and forwardess of the emotional aspect is kind of shameless

One of the best albums of 2012, period.

"cannot get past the screaming."

Me neither. The screamign brings this down from 4 to 3. It's like an 8 year old trying to mimick a t-rex or something.

Does anyone know if the clean vocalist did anything music-wise post breakup??

I've tried to find out about new projects from these guys, but no news yet - as far as I know.
