It Prevails The Inspiration
Its rare when a hardcore album gives you a happy/poppy, uplifting feeling,and this album does so. This is actual hardcore music,not the generic metal-core which wrongly gets associated with it. It Prevails have crafted a great old school hardcore album that definitely shows its new school influences. Theres plenty of melody, plenty of heavy chugging, and even some clean singing in a couple of songs (which is actually good and on key). This album does not get old fast and the uplifting melodies will keep you smiling and optimistic towards the great album to come! Buy the album!

Gwen Stacy The Life I Know
Average yes. Potential yes. Whether or not they strive for that with their next release, well I guess we will all just have to wait, unfortunately. They're from my home state, so a little credit is due to them but not much since I expected more...Bass player's voice is pretty good. Maybe they should use him even more than they do? The screamer should also change his tone once and a while...makes for a more eventful vocal delivery. The Life I Know will satisfy those looking for generic metal/hardcore...as the plethora of bands spit out by labels usually do.

Protest the Hero Fortress
Just amazing. Vocals are excellent and original (in this day and age nobody can do what Rody can;not even Green, he has a style all his own). The guitars are awe-inspiring and the bass just makes me jealous and envious to be one myself. A bass player that finger taps regularly? Come on! The drums are amazing also but don't provide as much theatrics as the others;nonetheless the band is practically flawless as a whole. I would love to see the band experiment with maybe at least one slower song to mix it up. Rody singing a slow song would be interesting. Every song is as inventive as the next and each has it's own standout points and sweet psu
