Just checked the lyrics for The Constant. So fucking great.

TCWCU is an amazing record but so is this, for different reasons. The guitar is definitely not as skilled as their previous stuff on here. I've learned quite a few songs from Counterparts, including most of The Constant(which is a fucking amazing song), and I have begun to learn Lost and Wither on here, and the guitars are alot more simple. Its a huge difference from John Locke to Wither, or the Constant to Lost. So much easier to learn.



That being said, is it really a bad thing? The guitars, while more simple, are still extremely interesting and catchy. They still continue to pump out weird grooves and melodic lead guitars. I can't complain because this record is great. Another thing that's sets this album apart from their previous work is how varied the album is. Some songs sound like Prophets era and some TCWCU. Every song has its own identity and feel. The songs on their previous albums seemed to bleed together.



I love this band.

I agree that loving TCWCU and then 2.5ing this seems ridiculous.

The second sentence in this review is a doosy. Might need some shortening.

Album's got some great moments, but it's pretty inconsistent. Compass is grossly out of place.

Hopelust: yeah that one I remember reading a couple times and wondering if it was going to work. I might split it into two. Thanks!

I've gotten into Current lately. Mind you, l only heard of this band due to this site hyping the absolute shit out of this.
