0.0 | FreePizzaDay | June 10th 09 | I found this album at the library. I wasn't expecting much and I got... well... not much. "Overcme" seems to fall into the classic metalcore pitfall I dub the "As I Lay Dying" Syndrome. Tracks begin to feel same-y, double bass is spammed a bit too much, and riffs get less and less original. The drumming is overall quite good, the guitars are solid, if not a bit repetitive, and the vocals are sub-par, and often seem too forced.

3.0 good | Hastetheday09 | February 24th 09 | After the success of TFoI, ATR comes back with a pretty big disappointment to most, but enough to keep some satisfied. The big thing I don't like about this is the production. Obviously it's way different then when Adam did it. The cleans would have probably been better if he produced it. Well actually all the vocals would have been. I like the more use of cleans but the production just brings it down and it could have been a lot more. The guitars are awesome like always, drums still playing some sweet beats. Some of the best songs I think on this album are: Before the Damned, Two Weeks, Chrion, and A Song For The Hopeless

2.0 poor | butt420 | October 6th 08 | I Loved All That Remains until I heard this album. The Vocals are Horrible, If I wanted to hear a whiny bitch i would download the Backstreet boys greatest hits. Musically the album is good but Metalcore should never have this much clean vocals. Highly Dissapointed. I thought this band had metalcore to a T. I hate using the term sell out but these guys did just that. If your sixteen of just a big fan I recomend this album otherwise check out some of the other new metalcore/hardcore albums that have come out recentally(unearth, Walls of Jericho, and Bleeding through have some of the best Metalcore/hardcore albums of the year) . You Shouldnt have to pussy out the vocals to broaden your audience you should try to keep your current audience on the edge of their seats........

0.0 | TheFourthCircle25 | March 1st 16 | Sure, it's not the monster that The Fall of Ideals was, but regardless, this is still a heavy, enjoyable release. There's some great songs, and even the "softer" songs aren't all that band. So long as you go in with an open mind, you will no doubt enjoy it.

3.0 good | tamarack1500 | May 25th 12 | As the album that really started getting me into the "heavier" side of metal, in my opinion I'd say that this album is pretty good. It has enough of the clean vocals to satisfy someone used to listening to hard rock, and enough of the normal metal vocals to satisfy long term metal fans. The guitar solos are also highly enjoyable, and the drums are lightning fast. My two main problems with this album are that a) almost all the songs sound quite commercialized and radio friendly and b) All That Remains couldn't quite pull off the slower, rock-style ballads.

0.0 | Camstr | March 24th 12 | Sometimes I wonder how high this album would be on most All That Remains fans' lists if not for the overproduction. It has all the right material to be among their best, and less than perfect production doesn't stop that from being a fact with me.

1.5 very poor | joelco92 | May 11th 10 | This album really dissapointed me. After All That Remain's two previous releases I had high expectations for this album, they were both so good. Instead this album fails in every way imaginable. They completely regressed as a band. The insanely awesome riffs from The Fall of Ideals are few and far between on this album, and are replaced by very mediocre guitar work. The drumming is not nearly as creative or brutal either, just very ordinary. I loved Phil Labonte's screaming and singing in ATR's older albums, but for some reason he, for the most part, sucks in this album. I don't know what happened to ATR, but this album is a total letdown.

2.5 average | IRAI | April 1st 10 | It's not a bad album by any means, but it doesn't particularly shine bright anywhere.
It is also extremely hard to follow up The Fall Of Ideals...

0.0 | DarknessPrevails | September 30th 09 | A downgrade from The Fall Of Ideals, but not nearly as bad as everyone makes it out to be. Still heavy, still catchy, and still ATR, unlike later releases to come

4.5 superb | euphonicprogression | October 15th 08 | Everyone knows all that remains is a classic in the metal scene and everyone who knows anything about music knows who they are. If they don't, they have no idea what mucis is. They are known for their kick ass guitar riffs, out of control drummer, female bassist, and of course the bic shaved Phil at the front with the demonic voice of gods. Phil however turned down his evil vocals for the new album. He comes out instead with an angelic voice. I happen to love his passion in this album and im focusing mostly on his voice because that seems to be the biggest change in the bands direction. All that remains keeps up their agravated playing and their hard ass harmony. People aren't liking the album beacuse they said his demonic chants made the music ten times more powereful but i disagree for the reason that if Phil can show off his softer side and the music still sound just as kick ass as it ever did then why the hell not. The band isn't straying far from their roots and his lyrics make the songs catchier. I'm not part of this dynamic pentagon of musical talent but I think they wanted to take a different direction for them and they manage to pull it off with beauty and structure that can only be expected from All That Remains.

4.0 excellent | thedarkestred | October 6th 08 | This album is not excellent... but since 4 out of 5 is 80%, that is about what i would say it is
It is not as good as their last 2 albums, especially not 'The Fall of Ideals', mainly because of Phil's clean vocals, they seem to have taken a turn for the worse
But, it is a consistent album and I love the Nevermore cover at the end =)

3.5 great | MattRTS | September 29th 08 | I thought it was pretty good, my thoughts changed after listening to it again though &
it's not as good as I thought. Some good vocals, guitar work, & drumming help make up a
bit for flaws, though.
