    Hate to be the one to downgrade this album but it just didn't do nothing for me. The first single "I Don't Wanna Be Here Anymore" is average at best, there's a couple really neat instrumentation on this album but just like Endgame it didn't do much for me. Generic. Wish they'd rethink their strategy.

    The formula is nowhere near broke, so why fix it? Stirring stuff. [Oct 2014, p.91]

    While this more contemplative side rounds out their usual roaring punk, it does strip them of some edge, making The Black Market sound oddly anonymous. [Sep 2014, p.113]

    The Black Market is a magnificent wake-up call. [12 Jul 2014, p.52]
