Constellations

The third studio album by the Pennsylvanian quintet is widely regarded as a defining, flawless achievement within the late-2000s metalcore boom. Avoiding the clean vocal choruses of their contemporaries, the band focuses entirely on devastatingly heavy breakdowns, lightning-fast technical guitar leads, and Jake Luhrs's impassioned, roaring delivery. It debuted impressively on the Billboard 200, solidifying their reign over the American hardcore scene.
