Woah, this pretty much blows Deliver Us out of the water. Despite the fact that it's very samey, I struggle to find many flaws. Payphones and Pills, Misinformation Age, Accessible Losses, and The Patriot Virus are my favorites.



A definite 4.5 contender.

Pay Phones and Pills is so amazing...



Think I may get So Sedated, So secure next. I heard "Convalescene" on Undoing Ruin and wasn't too crazy about it, so i'm deciding on SS,SS

Convalescene got me into these guys. I like SS, SS I think you should give it a shot.

This is a damn good album, drummer was probably at his best here too. And Veritas, Aequitas is epic.

I couldn't agree more that Darkest Hour are almost a clone of At the Gates on this record. However, they did record this at Studio Fredman where all those gothenburg bands recorded. This album is a homage to what the scene used to sound like. In fact, I mean it has Tomas Lindberg and Peter Wichers on the record. So, yes, it is going to sound like it. However, there are strong songs on this record. "Payphone and Pills" for an example.

I'm loving Veritas, Aequitas at the moment, never expected them to bust that out as a closer. I didn't think I would like this as much as I do, but it's still no Undoing Ruin.

Undoing Ruin bores me, some of the songwriting/melodies felt contrived nad overall it was just kinda "meh". This is so much more vital and better.

Veritas, Aequitas is my favorite instrumental song. It is very beautiful how it goes into acoustic and then towards the end when the guitar solo came in just left me breathless and gave me chills.

One of those albums that is caught right between a 4 and a 4.5 for me.
