The album goes well forward. The songs are played punchy and the vocals have the necessary hardness, but is still melodic. For my taste, the whole thing could be mixed a little dirtier, therefore 1 point deduction. Who does not want to keep strictly the album in the hands, should think about a MP3 downloads from Amazon MP3. At least at Release-day there was the complete album for 5!
Conclusion: Buy recommendation!
