Because enough people already are accurately entered into the songs, I want to keep it short.
My personal highlights include:
Disparity by Design (For me, in the top 5 of all Rise Against tracks. Even the shout-part of Tim is great, if a little short fall)
Broken Mirrors (Something has the song itself - is sometimes quite something new)
Survivor Guilt (What a text alone !, so an absolute highlight of the album)
Unfortunately, there were also songs that have less excited me:
. Wait for Me (probably the biggest disappointment of the album The melody of the song is just great rather melancholy, but great - however, the text is absolute 08/15 cal *** - I'm sorry,
could have been done much more out of it)
Endgame (Not bad, but not outstanding good - mediocrity for the last song of the album I would have again desired a real firecracker..)
Conclusion: On the whole, an absolute buy recommendation. The style is harder, but still no comparison to previous albums such as "Revelutions per minute". For me, this is not automatically negative thing, I like their old albums like the new. However, if you are looking for a new "The Unraveling" or "Siren Song of the Counter Culture" is, should be more hands off here. Who can make friends with the new sounds by contrast, will surely come here at his own expense.
One more thing: your lyrics are terrific unchanged, that runs through the entire album (with one exception: see above).
Have fun with the part! And remember: always turn up nice and loud :)
