"Okay, what can be said about converge ? Lets, begin with their sound... It's heavy, original,melodic, chaotic, Brilliant lirycs ,& , most of all? Amazing riffs that are hard to play..Belive me, i've tried and their not easy at all!Now, converge's caring & killing probaly opened doors for so many emocore bands such as thursday,thrice etc... I mean, just listing to the melodis & lirycs! I love and i will cherish every song made by converge because without them ?Metalcore would be no where. I chose to be the first person to post here because i feel that after so many years making great music converge's "caring & killing" deserv to be rated on so here it goes... Five stars from me! Buy it, if you haven't already!"

Caring and Killing

"Converge has evolved so much over the years that describing them is futile. They're a key part of the Boston hardcorecore scene, but this album easily transcends the genre. As an album, Caring and Killing is a lot less aggressive and abrasive. It's much more like the melodic parts of Petitioning the Empty Sky than it is any of their newer material. Lyrically, the album is much simpler than later converge albums, but the simplicity helps you to better experience the album's emotion. This is a brilliant album by one of the most innovative bands in the aggressive music scene."
