Metalcore/hardcore is not really my favorite genre, but this was pretty kick-ass! Great mix of influences and among the better vocals I've heard in this genre (in my opinion).
Intense and awesome sound, and even though some parts fall a bit behind the rest, the songs never stops throwing out punches. It's hard to sit still when listening to this.
"Constant alteration" sounds like a medley of all great metal last 10 years compressed into a less-than-3-minutes kick in the stomach. Simply awesome!
Amazing songs!
The more I listen to these songs, the more I like them (and I've listened a LOT to them!)
The speed, the sound and the variation within and between the songs is absolutely perfect!
I really can't believe this is such a young band. Each song is so filled with great parts it sounds like it would take years just making them (I still find new stuff I haven't noticed before even after listening to the songs 50-100 times (at lesat)). All instruments as well as the vocals work in perfect harmony and bring out the best in each other.
Even compared to my favorite bands in the power/heavy metal genre (who are far more renowned) this surpasses them in most areas.
If I were to look for something that could be improved it would have to be the english pronunciation. It can be hard at times to understand the lyrics (other than that the vocals are superb though). Also I'd like to have a real end to "City" instead of the fade-out.
The production is also great, bringing out all the great details without being too polished.
Even the album cover fits perfect to the music and band name.
In conclusion, this is one of my favorite albums. Ever. Period!
