"Dont waste your money on this one if you hate the trend of bands releaseing softer cds for more mainstream appeal, which is exactly what IIB did with this one. I actually forget im listening to the cd which is never a good thing when listening to a hardcore cd. You wanna feel it and say "Wow! This breakdown is awesome." Instead I found myself saying,"Its over?" The tracks actually blend in together making one long soft song, and you dont even realize it. The songs dont differ from one another which is terrible. On there last Cd they made the cd in a way where the tracks would differ from hard breakdown tracks to soft singing tracks but all good. This one however has the first 3 tracks with the IIB feel than give you 7 tracks of zoneout music, which is what I found myself doing everytime i tried to give the cd another chance. They are one of my favorite bands so im hopeing the cd grows on me but as for now i say stick with "lay waste the poets" and "awakening vesuvius""
