Album Notes & Community Reviews

Produced by Killswitch Engage's Adam Dutkiewicz, the debut studio album from the Australian quintet rapidly established them as a formidable force in modern metalcore. The recording relies on unrelenting aggression, seamlessly connecting heavy, chugging breakdowns with soaring, melodic death metal-inspired guitar leads.
