3.5 great | LosProfetas | July 23rd 15 | The remixed/remastered tracks alone make this deluxe reissue worth purchasing. If you didn't like the original album I urge you to give this a try, it's a totally different experience. Stay the Course is an excellent new track that gives a good idea of what Memphis May Fire will sound like going forward, and the acoustic tracks are surprisingly enjoyable as well.

2.5 average | AmbushReality | July 19th 15 | Unlike most Rise re-issues, this isn't a TOTAL blatant cash-grab. The entire original album has been re-mixed/mastered and sounds far and away better than the first release. The guitars are audible, the vocals don't entirely drown out the rest of the band, and there are lead licks present that seemed non-existent on the original version. Though the music sounds better, it doesn't save the album entirely, as the poor lyrics still stick out like a sore thumb in places. This is especially prevalent on "My Generation," one of two new tracks present on this release. Its counterpart, however, "Stay the Course," is certainly a highlight amongst the rest of the album's mediocrity, featuring a sweet dueling guitar solo (an unheard-of trait in modern metalcore) and constant energy. Bottom line: give this a spin if you, like me, found the original unlistenable. While it is not the best Memphis May Fire release by any means, it certainly saves Unconditional from being a completely irrelevant release within their discography.

3.0 good | po0ty | January 5th 16 | Really wish this was the original release. Stay the Course is a nice addition but My Generation blows hard.
