This band just keeps putting out better and better music with every release--this album being one of the very best thus far. Crunchy and melodic, with cerebral, thought-provoking lyrics. The entire band has outdone themselves with this album. If you're familiar with the band's early music, you might pick up a few nods to some of the older songs. If this is your first foray into the Order, welcome. You're in for a kick-ass time.
