2.8 good | Rudy K. EMERITUS | October 6th 13 | Poppier than their debut but without the dreamy haze that permeated Reign of Terror, Bitter Rivals attempts to split the difference and ends up gaining nothing. Chose a half measure, when they should've gone all the way.

3.5 great | Trey STAFF | October 3rd 13 | Very similar to their other albums, but that means it's really good. I really like To Hell With You.

2.0 poor | Comatorium. | February 13th 14 | It's a shame this band ended up being lame as fuck since Treats

4.0 excellent | AlexTM510 | October 19th 13 | Rather than being just an element, Alexis Krauss's vocals are smartly put more in the front
of the album. The marriage of her vocals meeting in the middle Derek's Miller noisy production results in Bitter Rivals being more immediate, cohesive, poppy, and quick possibly their best record to date. This duo now sounds fully comfortable in their skin, and if they continue to push their creativity things can only go up for them.

1.5 very poor | PistolPete | October 16th 13 | This band has inexplicably forgotten how to make a good song. I can't even find one song on here that sticks out. They need to cool their jets and take their time on the next album, because this was one colossal waste of everyone's time.

4.0 excellent | Shadein | October 10th 13 | Filled to the brim with attitude and then some. Much improved from the inconsistent Reign of Terror.

3.0 good | gryndstone | October 6th 13 | Sleigh Bells actually pulls back a bit of that "up-to-11" sound that everyone fell in love with.

3.5 great | KangarooSong | October 2nd 13 | Treats is one of my favorite albums of all time, i really liked most of reign of terror, and this....well this sounds like they want to get a few more listeners on board. Definitely their most versatile list of tracks to date, but lacking the astonishingly raw energy of their first LP.
