I feel this album is the best in their discography, and a great fusion between everything that came before, as well as what would come from the band. Colors is the album everyone loves and it is a clear distinction between the Metalcore that came before and the prog influence that transformed the band into something greater. This album front to back is an incredible follow-up to Colors that I feel is often overshadowed without reason. The opener is nice and calm, highlighting some of the calmer ... read more
