a wise man once said "A disappointing but still valiant effort. The only issue with the record is the songwriting rhas taken a small step backwards. The majority of Awakened can't replicate the rheights that the instrumentation and vocal hooks achieved on their two previous releases. rAs I Lay Dying have by no means crafted a bad record but in comparison to their best work, rAwakened falls short."r

Original Score: 3.5rA disappointing but still valiant effort. The only issue with the record is the songwriting rhas taken a small step backwards. The majority of Awakened can't replicate the rheights that the instrumentation and vocal hooks achieved on their two previous releases. I rLay Dying have by no means crafted a bad record but in comparison to their best work, rAwakened falls short. rEdit: Album has since grown immensely on me.

wow, at first this was more like a 3 but man is this a grower. The more you listen the better it gets. I challenge anyone who doesn't like it to listen to it like 3 full times and then assess again

The hate for this album is very surprising; although, I'm sure the cleans threw some people off. That being rsaid, this album runs train. Catchy and aggressive with some dope ass riffs. Instrumentation and vocals are rboth sick. Competes with AOBU for their best album. rI'm upping this to a five. Just blasted it straight through again. If this shit don't pump you up before game rtime than you're a pussy. Just kidding. Kinda.

A listenable album with highlights being "Overcome" and "Defender." I know others disagree, but that's my opinion.

People overreact and bash music because it's "the same" and "not anything new". I am so sick of hearing those terms. It's hard to do something completely original when today's music market is flooded with everything imaginable. Being one of the big and more well-known names of metalcore, AILD has already established themselves and no longer feel the need to change. The result is something sure that we've heard before, but it isn't necessarily bad.

In "Awakened", As I Lay Dying explore melodic territory, creating a solid, consistent, catchy and excellent record.

Well As I Lay Dying paved the way for metalcore today and it is great that they are still at it. This album has some great moments that will get your head bobbing and your fist pumping. Tim does a great job of mixing up the different style of vocals, and the guitars are thrashing away. But the production gets a little weak, it seems like the guitars over power the drums at times and it takes away from the overall feel of the album. It is a good album, nothing ground breaking but well done and work 3 out of 5.
