The title track is a sick instrumental. The spoken parts remind me of Meshuggah's Catch-Thirty Three instrumental.

These guys put on good live venue shows, especially their vocalist. Great band.

The part with the over used harmonics about a minute and a half into An Autopsy makes me lol every time I hear it. This is the most mediocre attempt at death metal I've ever heard.

Elliot Sellers is wasted in this band.

He's an awesome drummer but he's in an incredibly boring band now.

I thought Job for a Cowboy was way more boring.

I agree Doom was better, but I feel it still pales to Akeldama.

This is pretty good, but I dunno, I don't see how they are as good or better than All Shall Perish. Something feels awkward and out of place about this album.

In no way whatsoever is this mediocre.



And the bit mappy mentioned in An Autopsy with the harmonics is sick.

I can't wait for their next release... this record is ace, especially for a debut.

I guess it just depends which you like better, technical progressive metal, or slow boring hardcore...

These guys have tons of talent, but something about how it was mixed or the production kinda makes it awkward. The guitars sometimes feel totally out of place at times. I like the added touch with the keyboards, and the jazzy feel of this album.

have you ever heard a single hardcore band in your life?

and if I want something technical, I'll listen to Architects or something, you know... something that doesn't have out of place keyboards and doesn't bore me half to death.

The keyboards do feel really forced sometimes.

Probably the best debut album for any band. I know I'll be still listening to them for years to come.
