 I like when I get good requests like this EP right here. Nothing groundbreaking, by any means, but it sure is a fun listen. The guitar work is great, soloes sprinkled here and there, ball-busting breakdowns and the vocalist has nice variety to keep things fresh. A bit generic of course, but I'm sure these guys are gonna get better with time and bigger.

The album between "Carnal Repercussions" and "Kill The Crown" and it's I guess their most hated album. I don't get why though - musically it's very similar, in fact, the drumwork here is by far my favorite. Maybe it's because of the change of vocalists, he didn't have those lows or squeals; instead doing shrieks and brocals (imagine a frat boy attempting lows) though he does get pretty low at times. Just give it a chance and don't listen to the hype about this album.

They went back to their roots on this album, while maintaining a sense of progression. This is their most focused and mature album to date, in my opinion. Gone are those (sick) pig squeals and the breakdowns are used in a tasteful quantity. Really great album overall, definitely underrated.

Sick motherfucking album, one of my all-time favorite deathcore albums ever. Straight to the point deathcore, with a bit of melody on the guitars, without sounding almost metalcore-ish or cheesy, pig squeals used in very low quantity but they all sound awesome, bone-crushing breakdowns, great length, vocals, drums; everything about it makes it a must-listen for deathcore fanatics.
