Hardly anything on Rise is above average and I have a feeling this album will live up to that.

Song was okay, not atrocious but not groundbreaking. Agree with comments about every band converting to 7/8 strings to try and be djent or groove.

looks like the lead singer lost some weight

He pulled a Chino Moreno

But I knew they would somehow involve some sort of djent-like sound in their new material. Sounds good for now, but soon every metalcore band's going to be doing it.

i agree that the production was pretty solid. i'm interested in seeing what caleb shomo is really capable of doing, as he seems like the only member of the band that has the potential to be onto something. he's a passable vocalist and his work on the production and electronics isn't bad...

Damn, this band just keep on changing don't it? But... get a better screamer, or keep it like this. Because this, I actually like. The instruments are pretty neat, best clean vocals they've ever had, but like I said, screaming couldbe improved a lot! But gonna check this out, because this is sounding promising. Unless it's like Like Moths to Flames, who had like... 1 good track on their latest album, which also was the first to be released to YouTube by Rise. I sure hope not!

I'm really not a fan of this type of screaming and he's not even doing it well. I really like the song though. If they're able to put enough variation (ballad, long song, etc...) into the record and pull it off, this could be a 3.5/4.

Also, if you look at Rise bands, they aren't there. Also, check wiki.

I'm seeing a lot of bands using a meaty tone. It does sound a bit djenty which is neat. hopefully it won't get old.

Also, the screams are pretty weak and remind me of spencer sotelo from periphery's self-titled on an impression level. Pretty boring, but the band surely doesn't sound gay anymore. Also, the 50's look can work for them, will not lie. Good for them, they also cut their hair.
