May 19, 2016Perfectly written, recorded and performed, Along The Shadow is less an emo revival than a full-on reconstitution.

May 19, 2016After such a long journey, the original lineup have finally made an album together and it's every bit as triumphant and evocative for fans as it is for the quartet who have finally fulfilled a vision they had at the turn of the millennium.

Alternative PressMay 19, 2016Besides a few corny riffs and dated moments, this is far and away the album Saosin's cheesy imitators have been attempting for the last 13 years. [Jun 2016, p.102]

Jun 13, 2016While Green’s falsetto is immediately distinctive, a pop-tinged ballad like “The Stutter Says a Lot” and the blazing screamo anthem “The Secret Meaning of Freedom” stand on their own as fully formed compositions. Second acts don’t usually sound this sweet.

May 19, 2016This album sets the band on their surest footing for years and proves that Anthony Green and friends can still hang. After all this time away, that’s more than enough.
