Wanted to like this more than I did. Solid atmosphere and some pretty cool drumming, but the riffs and the song structures are dull and all sound the same, which makes this drag hard. Valiant attempt at a unique vocal performance but it falls short, and the lyrics (which are actually somewhat intelligible) are a bunch of self-indulgent preachy, finger-pointing nonsense. Normally I don't care about lyrics but because the guy was going for "desperate cries" but instead ended up with "whiny wailing", they stood out (to the album's detriment). 2.2/5
