8/10 or higher goes in my collection. 6/10 or 7/10 is respectable but not to my taste. I don't really consider anything below that.

This would have been a winner if it wasn't for the screaming vocals.

Agreed.

This would have been a winner if there weren't any vocals and they concentrated more on the instrumentation.

idk Eva Spence's (soft) vocals are one of the best things on this album.

This would have been a winner if it wasn't for the vocals.

This guy gets it.

Sorry this is late. Was busy all week. I listened to this today on the way down to a record store.

I dig this record. Blends a lot of different sounds together into what I thought was a coherent and synergetic mix of post rock ambiance and post hardcore screamo. Really enjoyed the instrumentation and I'm a sucker for female vocals juxtapositioned with some abrasive male vocals. It kicks in the right moments and the quieter parts don't feel forced. Reminds me of "The World is a Beautiful Place..." in parts while also being very unique in some of the more post hardcore moments. This type of record has always been right up my alley and I enjoyed it a lot.

8/10

****ing finally. Thank god for Exo.

Wait until you see the final average for my next album. I expect something like a 3.2/10.
