Better and worse than its precessor for various reasons. Better because the guitar tone and songwriting is generally well executed and the longer songs seem to embrace more experimentation, making room for musical brilliance at times. Worse because Sam carter's harsh vocals are a bit of a downfall to be honest, and especially against a background of tight, solid instrumentation. However, when he sings cleanly the harmonization is well received, and very well placed too. 'Always' and 'I can't see the light' are both brilliantly performed, as is the ambitious 'Low'.

Not a bad album. Its hit "Buried At Sea" is a catchy nice track as "Heartless" and "Low". With this album their songwriting begun to improve further.
