Man, this guy's vocals are a bit more grating than I anticipated. I would have probably loved this 8 years ago. Now? I don't know, we'll see. Some of the better parts of the vocals remind me of Blair Shehan from Knapsack and The Jealous Sound. The guitars do as well. I highly suggest that you guys who are enjoying this album check out Knapsack. Overall I do think it's well done and sounds comparable to 90s emo bands, maybe too much for a 2009 album. But if that's what you're looking for, it's a winner.
