| 3.5 great | Jared Floryan | December 30th 14 | Hopeless and moderate on the onslaught, In This Life or the Next basically presents itself as a focused hodgepodge of dark metal riffs and hardcore-oriented shouting from lead vocalist Mike McTernan, the brother of record producer Brian McTernan. The biggest gripe I've got with the band's 2007 full-length record lies within Damnation A.D.'s attempts at staying relevant; the track which suffers most from this would have to be "If You Could Remember", featuring guest appearances by Pete Wentz and Patrick Stump. Keep in mind that these two have had a foray in punk music at some point in their lives. Putting this aside, however, the album in general manages to come off as quite satisfying and the bandmates here didn't so much as mellow out. Intriguing enough for both long-time fans and a couple newcomers, even if the replay value won't last for very long.
