As the years have progressed, Sonic Syndicate's overly heavy style has been gradually replaced by a more radio friendly sound with metalcore and melodic death elements no longer possessing the strong presence they once had. This release continues the alt metal direction with a strong overuse of commercial synthesizers that almost kills the album as a whole. I feel keyboards are best used in less quantity and in points of emphasis rather than as a main element. Before You Finally Break (featuring Soilwork's Speed) is the album highlight for me. This isn't one that will make people drop what they're doing but it has its moments of enjoyment.
