Don't know if there's really much fuss about it, is there? I've only seen the couple of favourable views here but didn't think this'd be setting the world alight.
Anyway, I could have saved you 45mins of your life and told you straight out you wouldn't like this. I know if 2012 you lost interest in modern rock. Disliking bands like Diamond Dawn and skipping songs like 'I believe in love' may mean that in 2013 melodic rock might be next on the chopping block for you?
Watch out, mate, soon you'll just be stuck with a bunch of prog CDs in a few years and wonder why the hell you stopped liking all the good music!
But yeah, seriously, if melodic rock isn't your thing any more fair enough. I certainly don't think this is amazing, but it's a very strong melodic rock release, without any obvious fault.
Agree Geoff!
