the only good thing about this band before was that their drummer was phenomenal. They must have told him to calm down. Thus making this one of the most tedious and boring listens I have had in a long time.

They should change their name to Texas In August. Bunch of ripoffs.

really boring, all the songs sound the same and follow the same format. chug chug chug chug, breakdown, and maybe some nice guitar work in there. i preferred the last release

The drums have been really pulled back in bombast here, where the hell is the amazing fills, rrobust cymbal work of the previous one. Can these dudes stop soloing, their scale use is rsecond rate. Part of the issue is a really lousy kind of muddy production as the energy of rthe treble / upper & lower bass are cut heavily off, a very narrow compressed cardboard rproduction. They've gotten really into using chords through the verses, and the production rleaves these very wafer thin & lifeless. This makes it a sound just devoid of energy & any rkind of passion in a way. It's listenable in the sense it's utterly forgettable, but christ ris this boring.

Album was released during a bizarre period where hypocritical sputnik users complained about chugs and breakdowns while simultaneously scoffs about how boring this release is. This album is a solid metalcore release in complete retrospect. Breakdowns are reserved and songwriting is truly cleverly mature and melodic all throughout. I never gave this band the slightest chance due to the stigma around them, but I can in confidence admit I am now a fan of Texas in July.

This album in a nutshell: *Opening drum fill*...Sudden transition into a breakdown...Oh! What a shock, another breakdown! I wonder what could be next?...SLOW DOWN THE BREAKDOWN TO GET 2 STEP ON...Break-down number 3, oh wait I think it's number 4...At least i think... I really don't know.

Boring instrumentation that sounds like a poor man's "August Burns Red" with mediocre vocals and generic song construction, Texas in July have yet to improve from their debut album and instead fall further into their more generic qualities. The only positive aspect about this album would be the song "May", which is a relaxing acoustic ballad with no vocals and some nice string arrangements, leaps and bounds better than anything else on the album.

The most generic, boring, unentertaining piece of shit that I have ever had the displeasure of letting touch the insides of my ears. Simply put.

I agree with Steven Speeding... Adam Gray is the best part of this band. It's kinda sad that the drumming in this album sounds so boring... Giant waste of talent. Not to menton, their screamer has always been garbage and from what I have listened to, it doesn't change...

I can't help but feel that I like this album a little more than the rating states, it's like a 2.80 which is slightly better. Replacing breakdowns was a nice touch, but the album wares off after a few songs and mainly comes down to good moments rather than good songs. Still, a could-be-better album in a could-be-better genre.

If you were gonna buy only one REAL metalcore album this year, it should be this one. The title track alone destroys half the mediocre and uninspired stuff out there. Misery Signals have left quite a mark indeed.

Awesome Metalcore is awesome. These guys are extremely nice as well. If you like August Burns Red and Misery Signals, you will probably enjoy this.

A giant step up from their first release. The biggest improvements are over-all cohesion and vocals, these vocals are downright amazing now.
