"I just have to say that this album is brutal. All the way through, Terror stays true to hardcore's roots and their origional sound, while still creating something new that is different from "Lowest of the Low" and "One with the Underdogs". The opening song, All For Revenge was a perfect way to start off the album... hard guitar riffs, fast and never slowing. The vocals are much harder than before (relates much more to "Lowest of the Low" and the instrumentation has gotten better as well. Their choice of guest vocals was also totally different from their previous albums. I do not know the singers or what bands they are from, but everyone of them were much more melodic; they did it for a reason and it gave each song more of a backbone to it. A good example of this is in track Close to Defeat.
Overall this album is amazing. One song however, that is completely different... was the last song Smash Through You. It is slow, but it is amazing how Terror molded it into something hardcore and amazing. I believe that experimentation is good (especially when it is just in one song and not the entire album... especially if it flops), but Terror did a great job and just smashed through everything... of course Zeuss produced it... and he is amazing lol!
There is also rap in it... 12. Dibbs And Murs Check In. But I don't mind. I don't mind rap... especially good rap and they are awesome. It just changes the texture from hearing screaming vocals... hardcore and rap together is amazing. Stay true Terror! Keep up the great work and I hope to see you on tour!!!! Rock on!
