Lorna Shore's Pain Remains is fantastic as well but suffers from more repetition.Silent Descent DuplicitySinergy Suicide By My SideSlipknot SlipknotSlipknot .5: The Gray ChapterSold Soul I Hope We Make It Out of This AliveA welcome step up from their debut. There's a stronger sense of atmosphere with the orchestrations and use of violins, though they sometimes drown out the guitars. Arguably the most divisive part will be Twisted Insanes feature in Cathedral of Dracul, other than that there's a lot of variety here.Soul Sanctuary AfterlifeStratovarius NemesisSystem Divide The Conscious SedationTarot Suffer Our PleasuresThe Breathing Process Odyssey: (Un)deadSymphonic Deathcore is definetly my favorite incarnation of the genre and holy smokes these guys nail it.

Definetly a worthy addition to their discography.3.5 greatA Wake in Providence EternityGreat stuff.

The band even managed to take a ballad, something i usually dislike and absolutely nailing it (The Sacrificed).
