Still not the biggest fan of nu-metal or post hardcore (and [latently] death metal), but I believe I can hear certain qualities that could distinct other bands as "better" than most out there. Nu-metal has obtained a really bad rep over the years, esp after the early 00's (mainly due to the rap-core variety, but that observation is just my limited opinion). There are bands that choose to focus moreso on their metal qualities, and those concentrations have paid off for most like those of S.O.A.D., Mire (CAN), Sunk Loto, Fear the Clown, and Vex Red. This band's album has a lead that reminds me of Zach de la Rocha if he decided to go straight-up hardcore w/ instrumentation that's just as aggressive & depressing as the lead sounds. The beginning mostly registers as filler, but by track 4 the album began picking up. This album is not a classic but still marks as another great one album wonder.
