When I put this album for the first time in the player, I was totally ironed already from track 1 on. Fat sound, good riffs and an expressive singer. The change between sung and geshouteten games is organic and all in all a clean-produced album. After the first two runs this impression quite relativized. Unfortunately I do not for a permanent listening a bit of variety in the songwriting. When switching from the aggressive to the clean vocals, creeps me every time the feeling that I have but one way or another similar to hear this part already in the final song. The references in metal discs with this "combined" Singing for me "Uroboros" from Dir en Grey and "Blackwater Park" Opeth, and are from there noticeable compositional genius "Killswitch Engage" still very far away here in my opinion , Therefore, more than three stars are not there.
