I'm actually disappointed... I thought this would be better; moreover, I was looking forward to this release. I guess TIJ is just another product of the scene.
Don't think chugging is evil, I like it lots but seriously... If I wanna hear that I'll go to bands that can actually play riffs with a breakdown.
Haven't to it yet but I just can bring myself to love these guys. I bought both of their prior releases based on the good things I had heard about them but for some reason none of the songs really stick with me. I hate to rehash what's been said but they really do sound like another August Burns Red. ABR is one of those bands where they fill the void perfectly for their type of music so having a "ABR lite" just doesn't do anything for me.
