4.0 excellent | SeanFracture | June 29th 10 | Much like the leap from Your Favourite Weapon to Deja Entendu, this is where Crime In Stereo made the jump from a great-at-what-they-do pop-hardcore band to rapidly maturing alt-rock.

4.0 excellent | sexualsoybean | August 13th 09 | Small skeletal makes the album worth buying alone. Some other pretty good songs on here but it doesnt quite hit its stride.

2.0 poor | Intransit | November 7th 07 | Okay so I was never huge on Crime in Stereo before this release. Yeah, they played melodic hardcore with a lot of heart and a political edge and what not, but I had never really gotten the hype. This album just leaves me further baffled. It honestly sounds like Crime in Stereo decided to go "hey, hardcore isn't getting us popular, let's try this post-hardcore nonsense that everyone is trying and getting popular on". I'm sure it wasn't their train of though, but man is this a huge step back. This album lacks intensity on nearly every level. It almost sounds like Armor For Sleep+lots of distortion and better lyrics. Honestly, "XXXX (The First Thousand Years of Solitude)" is the only truly great song, and although there are a couple of other decent cuts in there, most of it is outweighed by a shit-ton of crap tracks, most notably "Unfortunate Tourists". Overall, highly disappointing.

4.5 superb | andrianoc | July 29th 14 | This album is a classic..every song is catchy as fuck and the album is short enough to where it doesn't overstay it's welcome.
