If you liked that album, you should also check out their free acoustic ep CVI: A.

Great album. 8/10 from me. Much better than anything Circa Survive have done.

I've listened to enough to make that judgement.

Far better bands out there doing this style of music. Boring album. Singer sucks. Kylesa-Lite at best and I don't even like Kylesa. 5/10

Just finished. I found myself checking out while listening. It wasn't very engaging for me, and I did not dig the vocalist at all. There were moments, but overall I wouldn't go back for a second pass.

The first few tracks were ok, but I thought it picked up nicely toward the end. Sure, maybe there's a lot of cliches here but there's a few standout moments I thought were pretty good. Blue is a great track. 7/10

Very bland, generic stuff here. Found myself pretty bored and looking forward to it ending. It's not necessarily bad, but it just does nothing for me.

The one exception was "Blue", I thought it was pretty bad ass. It was the only one that made me stop what I was doing and check out its name.

5/10

Singer does my head in.. Listened through to first 2 songs last night before clocking out. Came back to it this arvo & found myself skipping through tracks.. If the music was truly grabbing me Id have tolerated his voice, but the music wasn't hooking me in anywhere near enough.. Agree that musically Blue had a great groove going on which bumped the score up to 5 & a half out of 10 for me..
