| Chronic Future Lines in My Face |
| Lines in My Face is an excellent blend of rock and hip-hop with catchy riffs, vocal hooks and occasionally stellar lyrics. Its only flaws are a few cheesy moments and overall simplistic and repetitive song structure. |

The Fall of Troy don't give a **** what you think.
Sure, I'm not in love with these re-recordings, but the band took a different approach on a bunch of old songs which I think is what they were supposed to do. The production is awkward, and the bass isn't loud enough most of the time. This is kind of a big deal for a trio. Thomas can't sing, but his singing is passable a fair share of the time, so you can then easily focus on the ridiculously good instrumental side of these tracks. The ambiance bits, while prolonged a bit too much in places, are a welcome addition as well, keeping the album cohesive throughout.
I like Frank's dreads. |

| Through the Eyes of the Dead Bloodlust |
| I'm giving this the same score as The Scars of Ages only because this is longer. Its most evident problems are recycled drum patterns, some filler, and over-production. Otherwise, it is still excellent musically and the Bass plays a bigger part here thankfully. My favorite track off here is constantly changing, so I'm going to say Two Inches... is the best song here. |
