    For a band that doesn’t seem to be able to find uniqueness or style within their heavy rock sound, this was a somewhat enjoyable journey with well-formed melodic shapes, but their overall shortcomings in finding power while trying to be too perfect give off no substantial rewards. My Score: 106/180 (Okay) = 5.9/10

    I really don't have anything negative to say about the album nor do i have really anything good to say about it. It's not bad but none of the song's really feel unique. This to me is one RA's weakest albums. Bullsh$t is solid though.

    More often than not, though, Rise Against let you reach your own conclusions, and therein lies the difference between merely preaching to the choir and reaching the whole congregation. [3 Jun 2017, p.50]

    Stylistically speaking, the 11-track set doesn't deviate much from the formula the band established on its prior outings, but it will no doubt please longtime fans just looking for something new to pump their fists to.

    At times Wolves' polished, pop-tinged punk sounds more like a proffered Pepsi can than a clenched Molotov cocktail, but it is still punk to its bones in a time when the label tends to be skin-deep.
