This seems to be the current version of the album art.

The lead work is a LOT better than Backbreaker. I also love how much David changes his voice on every album; doesn't even sound like the same guy.

When someone loses, I usually lose too. That was actually pretty funny.

This band has been quite disappointing for a long while now. This song is okay, but I wish they would go back to the sound they had back with their first release.

Idk, I enjoyed Backbreaker in much the same way as Pantera.

Nah man, I enjoyed that album too. David's a very versatile vocalist.

Temptation Come My way was utter crap in my opinion. A complete sellout from a band that actually had somewhat of an original and enjoyable sound. Man, I still get pissed talking about these guys because they used to be one of my favorites.

Temptation was a more natural Southern sound for them. It was more of what they wanted to do.

Yea, perhaps. That was the problem though. It sounded like every other Southern Metal wannabe album.

I've always been a fan of Brunton's.

I'm so attached to their first album, but I'll give this one a shot. Backbreaker showed promise. I gave Temptation a ton of chances and it just never did it for me.

Yeah, here's hoping this doesn't suck. I think it will be rather good.

Also, not too big of a fan of the album cover. Looks pretty cheesy to me. Yes, I am being extremely critical. Deal with it! ;P

It reminds me a lot of Once Nothing's album cover.
