 :metal Bumping this thread as their album finally released officially today in the U.S.  I'm loving this album....

I'll say I'm usually not a fan of harsher vocals but the singer's powerful vocals are unique for that style IMO and his cleans (which there is plenty of in the album) are very nice.

The band is exceptionally talented and their playing is fantastic throughout. I recommend folks check them out.




Also for the moment the album is up at Amazon for  $1.89... GO GET IT!!!

Totally missed this thread. I'm seeing BTBAM, Periphery and The Safety Fire in October, had never heard about this band before, but have listened to their debut 3 times now. Really liking what I'm hearing. I think it has the potential to grow even more, but a fantastic debut. :)

I'm really digging these guys as well!  I first heard "Huge Hammers" on the InsideOut free sampler this year.  It was one of the only songs on it that I found interesting actually!  The tracks from Jolly and Leprous were cool too though.

Can't wait to grab the album... they're touring over here right now too, but there's no date in my area :(

trying to get more people into this band, a technical band that doesn't take themselves too seriously. New album Sept 3rd!

Vocals aren't always my cup of tea, but I love the sense of humor in their videos  :)

Beware the Leopard is probably one of the best metal songs I've heard. Tommy's guest vocals just add such an intensity.

The album rules.

Never heard this band before, but just clicked on the new album stream as I'll be seeing them on the cruise. Their sound, within the first minute  reminded me of a bit of Kaddisfly and Fair to Midland. Will post more once I've actually listened to the full album.

Getting ready to listen to this stream. I liked the first album, so we'll see how this goes!  :metal

There is so much throughout that I really, really like (I felt the same about their debut as well). The pick slides at the beginning of "The Ghosts That Wait for Spring" are vicious! That guitar solo in "Old Souls" is wicked and perfect for the song. Really digging the new album but I had a feeling I would.  :metal

Some vocals seemed unnecessary, but otherwise enjoyed the album. Will pick up.
