A logical continuation from Handmade, despite the extreme lineup changes. The music is very catchy and smooth while still having their usual phc/metalcore grit, and aside from a few spots, is executed very well. The album's main drawback is that it might sound too similar to their previous material, often not pushing their sound further. However, when they pull it off, they fucking nail it. The closing track may be the best song of the bands career, having some of their most infectious instrumentation and melodies to date. Overall, the album is nothing that really pushes the band's sound or the genre as a whole in a new direction, but they are still very good at what they do.
