The latest group to come out of Victory label will undoubtedly entice the listeners of their stablemates A Day To Remember and even Hawthorn Heights. This post punk/emo conglomerate falls right into step with their predecessors.
Filled with catchy melody lines that will thrill the teenager in you, they also make sure to stick as close to the formula as they can. Sure they toss in the occasional grunt, growl or shriek along with some better than average guitar work but the lack of originality is what screams the loudest. Other than a few moments along the way, there is really not much on this disc that stands out. You can pick about any song on here and it could very well become the current radio flavor of the month as all are simple anthems for the adolescents.
If you have someone in the house at the age where they want to listen to the same stuff as everyone else so they can be different, here is the disc for them. At least with this album, if you don't expect too much, you won't be disappointed.
