Nu-metal in its heart, but compensates somewhat by throwing creativity, passion and slightly strange influences into the fray. Songs are straight-to-the-point, apart from curious dabblings in samples and EQ trickery. Verse-chorus-verse-chorus, and cut. Lack of useless repetition within songs, which is good. It's fluid. Not as versatile as it advertises itself to be, "an explosive synthesis of post-metal, rock and electronics sonority", with its main attraction just the continuously repeating (10 times, to be exact) angst-ridden nu-metal shtick. There's one electronic song surprise towards the end, but it's too little and too late (and invariably angsty nonetheless). You get a pretty good impression of the whole album by listening the first few songs. Mainly recommended if you're a fan of the genre.
