(5 out of 5 stars)

"On a surface level you might shrug and go, do we really need another band that draws heavily on the past or a generic overproduced new band that isn't pushing things forward? But look again, this certainly is no throw away, they totally take their inspirations (none of which I can say they individually rip off) but they make an excellent melting pot of heavy, ambient, simple songwriting that just flat out rocks. I have said to friends before that this band leaves the build up out of what you would find in most rock songs and just sticks to the straight up rocking out. And before I fail to mention- do yourself a favor and see them live. This album is an excellent one to have cranking in the house, but this is a show that should not be missed either. As for their new one.... we'll see what happens, this one gets all my thumbs up."
