A new effort from Emorockers Silverstein. And to begin this review with a positive note: If you’re an emo fan you won’t miss anything on this record. Standard riffs, standard melody’s, standard vocal chords. Standard is written all over this record.

A mix of punk rock and emo, quasi happy songs mixed with some ‘misery fueled songs’. But it does not hit a right button. I listened a few times to this record but still can’t remember any of the songs.


It’s so much of the same, it’s just as uninspiring as an Italian with olives.
In times where there are 2000 emo releases per month this will not make anything. After a promising first album, they fail to built up their status.
As said it is too standard, it touches nothing. It is not sufficient to survive an emo wave.

(Friso)
