    Late for Nothing finds the band not missing a step despite losing an integral member, as LaPlante ably fills the rather formidable vacancy left by Cameron.

    As eccentric as these tracks are, most of them wind up in a familiar place, with clean vocals ascending to growly, thundery choruses.

    It's probably Iwrestledabearonce's most accessible album. For former lovers, though, they seem a couple notches low on the batshit-crazy scale here. [10 Aug 2013, p.53]

    Late for Nothing is a solid entry in this small but surprisingly fun subgenre of hyperactive metal.

Out of all four of their albums (actually 3 albums and an EP) I can safely say that overall this is their best. Courtney has a wonderful singing voice and can deliver screams very well. The instrumentals on this album are also incredible. I'd have to say that tracks 4 and 10 are my favorites. Expand
