    This is easily their worst album for me, the song that stood out at all was the title track. the rest of the tracks all blended together for the most part and sounded like half ass attempts to reinvent the band as being heavier or more "mature." many of the songs contain very bland, simplistic djent riffs and breakdowns that lack the punch needed to be memorable. vocals are the best part,This is easily their worst album for me, the song that stood out at all was the title track. the rest of the tracks all blended together for the most part and sounded like half ass attempts to reinvent the band as being heavier or more "mature." many of the songs contain very bland, simplistic djent riffs and breakdowns that lack the punch needed to be memorable. vocals are the best part, but they sound mediocre even in comparison to their older material. At their best the are a bad Asking Alexandria knockoff and at their worst a cheesy Blink 182 knockoff.

    While it’s not the career-defining milestone that some were anticipating, this album still offers up enough melancholy mayhem to keep ADTR ahead of the chasing pack.

    As adept as the band are at alternating between metalcore and pop-punk, McKinnon’s words are similarly nuanced and multifaceted here.
