I agree, a lot of their songs are monotonous, like all of the chaotic ones that have the same chaotic drum beat and the same guitar, and the same kind of screaming. I actually like the recording quality on Chaos Is Me/Dance Tonight, Revolution Tomorrow! and on the beginning tracks of Totality. Some of it was recorded at the legendary God City Studios by Kurt Ballou. Even though a lot of their songs sound the same, after listening to them, you can actually tell the difference lol. Theyre really good to listen to for a bit and then put them down for about a month and then listen to again for like a week. Thats the way Ive been listening to them lately heh. They're amazing though.
