    After Start something and The Fake Sound of Progress this album seems like a major step down. I used to go to LProphets to get pumped but they've changed both their look and their sound and I don't like the change

    i'm still a fan of the band, but this album is definetly weak.. lostprophets became just another pop-bublle gum-rock-band, which are so popular these days.. there are a couple of good tracks here, but the album can't compare to the first two.. sad :( i've heard them say, that they are progressing in music, exploring new hights, but i would never call this kind of album a i'm still a fan of the band, but this album is definetly weak.. lostprophets became just another pop-bublle gum-rock-band, which are so popular these days.. there are a couple of good tracks here, but the album can't compare to the first two.. sad :( i've heard them say, that they are progressing in music, exploring new hights, but i would never call this kind of album a progression, becoming dull and average is not going forward guys!

    I'll have to agree with Dylan L. They completely sold out for the cash. Granted everyone does, but they changed from Nu-Rock to pop-punk. A huge genre shift that made a lot of people angry. They went to the "non-conformist" crowd scene, which is actually larger than their original rock metal scene (how ironic). Want proof? Look at their image in "Shinobi vs. Dragon Ninja" video and I'll have to agree with Dylan L. They completely sold out for the cash. Granted everyone does, but they changed from Nu-Rock to pop-punk.

Look at their image in "Shinobi vs. Dragon Ninja" video and then watch "Rooftops". They went from Linkin Park to AFI, and that makes me sad, they had an awesome sound that now tainted. They album isn't bad, but these guys are not Lostprophets anymore. Expand

    Around the world, 15-year-olds will fall for this band. Then they will turn 16 and move on. [30 Jun 2006, p.161]
  2. Lostprophets are big and brash and brilliant. And this is rock'n'roll radio.
  3. Lyrically absurd, musically turbo-fuelled.
