Very mediocre album. Not a very technical album and the riffage is serviceable, but far from anything original. I don't understand the hype.

Best fucking band on metalblade right now. This album totally slays and I seriously don't understand how these guys aren't already the next big thing.

Honestly, this album is phenomenal. The album isn't disjointed like people keep saying. It's simply a lot more freeflowing...something your average metalhead isn't used to hearing. The Mars Volta is prog wankery. This isn't folks. This is perfectly calculated.
