Sep 23, 2016Undoubtably, they've lost some of their pure sound from Sound of Madness and Threat To Survival nearly strays on more than one occasion into sounding almost pop-rock, however there are a few catchy tunes - and Cut The Cord is a throwback to their past work - which is good to hear from the,. We've seen better fifth albums... Then again we've seen far, far worse.
Verdict: B

Sep 28, 2015While the occasional foray into the shallower end of the mainstream may divide some listeners, there's enough here to keep longtime followers satiated (and probably a little curious/nervous as to what the future holds) until the next ride.

Sep 28, 2015An assured piece of reach-for-the-stars hard rock, sure to thrive live.
