Give it a shot." Well boy I am glad that I did. Being a huge fan of Periphery, this album is right up my alley of what I like. It has all those fundamental elements: crunchy, technical breakdowns, soothing melodies flowing on top, and pounding drums. Now, with all that being said, this is not a Periphery rip-off band. This is a complete instrumental band that has rarely any computer-driven parts so you may want to think more in the vein of a band like Scale the Summit or Animals as Leaders. I feel like the instrumental aspect of the band may also be holding them back a bit as there were times on the album where I felt that vocals could have added a very nice touch to the song and given them each some more personality to separate them from one another. That was really the only thing that I could find lacking with this album. The solos were fabulous and the overall structure of the songs was spot-on. I would highly recommend this album and band to someone looking for new music, as it provides some very tasty licks throughout the entire CD.
