I don't think I'll even dignify this with a full review. So, here's me, with frustrated rage, putting down Killswitch's latest effort. Honestly? What the *** Killswitch? Mr. Shore, please get another job. I love your singing, but honestly. What. The. ***? This is just one long emo whine-wank. I don't mean 'emo' as in the subculture, i mean 'emotional' music. In a bad way. This album is so whiny. Shore's vocals and Dutkiewicz' over-produced and effected guitar work are just incredibly typical of metalcore today. Nothing is new here. The first four tracks are kind of decent. But I heard “Reckoning” before the release and was horribly disappointed. When I got to track four (“Reckoning”), I was already bored, and then the onslaught continued. Whiney *** after whiney ***. Just when I think it might get good again – ooooh no there we go again. Whining about your mummy or something. And it’s not just the whine of the album that ***s me, it’s the quality of the music itself. Where is metalcore going? “Atreyu”? “Bullet for my Valentine”? Howard-era “Killswitch”? What the? Please, as a cry to these and all-to-similar bands, please I beg of you, take a page from the book of Michael Jackson, and please die. Thanks. (Instead of recommending similar albums, I'll recommend what I feel are better Killswitch records.)2.0 poorDeez Nuts This One's For You
