Some pleasant guitar leads is about all this track has to offer. The Theft seems to be another attempted ballad. The band really ought to stray away from songs like these as it turns out to be a very cheesy sounding attempt at being dramatic and drags on. One good thing about this song is Alex's scream, it sounds better than his usual shout. Maybe this track serves as just a possible build up for We Stand Up.
An energetic opening sets the pace for the rest of the song. Some very fitting riffs are played throughout the song and if you can get past Alex's vocals, this song is very enjoyable.
A downside is during the chorus; Brandon"s singing is not up to par and almost brings the song's flow down, especially when he tries to go out of his range. The song slows down and provides a very tasteful guitar line.
At this point in the record it becomes obvious that at plenty of times Atreyu's guitarists do a much better job of shaping the songs" sought after emotion than the vocals.
And here we are the first single if I have been informed correctly Ex's And Oh's. Another catchy riff opens the song. Clean vocals are primarily used, big surprise.
The song is extremely bland at many points and the lyrics are just complete cheese balls, especially at the beginning. You took me home I drank to much Cause of you my liver turns to dust Cold rust takes cold creeping cool pain Do you understand what I need? When u feel your soul drop to the floor Like a hole, like an open bleeding sore Then you'll have bled like I've bled Then you'll have wept as I've wept The chorus is sung and it's not bad, just far from outstanding.
The verse's are a little boring but thankfully a great guitar solo saves this song from being a total infamy for the bands "new sound" as it captures a great amount of emotion. At the end of the day, this is not a very good choice for the first single. The song is just not very memorable past the great guitar work. Your Private War shows plenty of angst toward dishonesty and seems to be quite a personal track.
The lyrics, once again are in need of a bit of work. The verse holds a very intense state while the chorus mellows out the mood. Not a whole lot new is offered here and the song gets a little boring before its end. My Fork in the Road your knife in my back opens with a fairly cool melodic riff. Some drums compliment it and the second guitar harmonizes towards the end, providing the most enjoyable intro instrumentally so far.
The verses have quite a nice flow to them but once again Brandon gets a little too high at some parts of the chorus. Respect definitely goes to him for his improvement but I think he tries to hit some notes that he should wander away from. The pitch is there and it is more on key than not, but it just doesn't work for him. Once again a very tasteful guitar lead is played. The solo shows some of the best guitar work on the album. With more to praise about than to complain about, this proves to be the best song on the CD since Shameful.
The last track Untitled Finale hmm, weird that there is a word after untitled, anyway this song seems to drag on forever with not a whole lot to offer. It sounds like very standard Atreyu minus the cool guitar line in the chorus. The poor arrangement of the guitar line lessens its enjoyment.
This song fades out and ends the album on quite a weak note. For the most part, Atreyu has always been a band that can't keep my attention for a very long period of time at all. I find it very hard to listen to more than three songs on a CD in one sitting after listening to the album for the first time through.
This album might increase that to five or six if I am really in the mood. In answer to the questions at the beginning of the review, yes IMO this album is better than The Curse, although that really does not say a lot. For the vocals, the singing has improved a great amount while the screaming has not changed much.
The good news in singing is used quite a bit more in this album than previous. As for this new Atreyu sound, improved singing, great lead work by the guitarists and a slightly different mood in some of the songs is all that's new.
While an improvement over the previous release, this record is hardly more than average as it seems to be very dependent on the mood of the listener. Some days this album can be a good listen while on other days it just seems to be a bore fest. Perhaps one day Atreyu will find the sound they desire and put everything they have together creating an album they have the potential to, maybe not.
