YOU MIGHT BLEED OUT WAITING FOR SOMETHING DIFFERENT OR UNIQUE FROM THE NEWEST MISSING LINK ALBUM. THIS NEW YORK HEAVY HARDCORE BAND IS CRAZY HEAVY FOR SURE, BUT THERE MIGHT BE ONE TRICK ON HERE, AND IT MIGHT GET A BIT PLAYED OUT AFTER A LISTEN TO THIS ALBUM. THEY GOT SOME HEAVY-SOUNDING RIFFS AND POUNDING DRUMS THAT MAKE YOU WANT TO GO APE SHIT IN THE PIT FOR SURE, BUT THATS KIND OF WHAT THEY DO OVER AND OVER HERE. BESIDES THE TWO SONGS THAT HAVE UNIQUE SONG ARRANGEMENTS, INTERESTING RIFFS, AND A MIX OF DIFFERENT VOCALS, MOST OF THE SONGS ARE JUST GOOD MOSH PIT SONGS THAT KIND OF ALL BLEED TOGETHER. ALSO, THERE ARE SOME PERFORMANCE ISSUES HERE. LET'S TALK ABOUT THE MAIN VOCALS. MOST OF THE TIME, THE UNCLEAN VOCALS DON'T SOUND THAT STRONG OR TOO MUFFLED AT TIMES, AND SO IT DOESN’T GO WELL WITH THE MUSIC. HOWEVER, THE CLEAN VOCALS AND BACKING VOCALS GENERALLY GO WELL WITH THE MUSIC. THE GUEST VOCALS SOUND BETTER THAN THE MAIN VOCALS. IF YOU NEED SOMETHING HEAVY, THIS IS THE RECORD FOR YOU, BUT IF YOU WANT SOMETHING MORE BEYOND THAT, THEN THERE WILL DEFINITELY BE A MISSING LINK HERE FOR YOU.

RATING: 7/10
