The vocalist reminds of the guy from Oh! Sleeper. The clean vocals sound just like the guy from Skillet.

Yeah, I agree. The screaming has grown on me, but I really am not liking to cleans too much.

The put up an E-card, but it only has one song I haven't heard. I'm not buying this.

So I bought the album today. It is absolutely wonderful. Huge improvements from the last album. The guitarwork and the drumming is especially great. I recommend you guys give it a try at least.

Last time I checked these guys out, the only thing that came to mind was that these guys were a joke. But, that was a while ago, i'll have to give another listen.

How many songs are as hard or harder than the intro?

So I checked them out again, the new stuff. It was good until clean vocals. The clean vocals honestly make these guys suck.
I love the screaming, if it was straight scream or not those cleans, I might have gone and bought this. But with what is, these guys are no different from any other screamo/metalcore act out there.

The other songs are not as hard as Crumbs For the Murder. But this is just because of the lack of screaming.

Honestly, I find this album to be simply awesome. They don't follow the metalcore sound as closely as they did on the previous album. This guy can sing. I admit, I preferred the clean vocals of the old vocalist, but the new one has grown on me. The album is also not littered with breakdown after breakdown. Now I love a band that can pull off great breakdowns, but this band is just not heavy enough. They have the occasional breakdown, which works perfectly.

Call this album generic, but it's a step forward from the debut into getting out of overplayed metalcore niche.

I agree with you there, although this new album isn't that great, it's surprisingly good.

When you call anything with harsh vocals "screamo", it makes as much sense as calling anything with distorted guitar "heavy metal".

I didn't really like the new album, but the old album, Saints, is fairly enjoyable. Lately I've been really hooked to the song "Without Sight", nice blend of clean and screaming vocals. It's too bad they broke up, they seemed to have a good amount of potential.
