Removing from non-MS list - pasting blurb here.

If you have any inclination towards deathcore at all, or are at least open an unusual or progressive take on the genre, then take note. Sure, I have plenty of gripes with this release (the production is thin, the glowing musicianship is impeded by generic sections, the clean "punky" clean vocals are a little laughable), but that doesn't detract from the ball of fun that this album is. The interplay between the playful piano lines and bouncy instrumentation really makes this a delight to listen to. Not only is the songwriting here quite entertaining for the most part, the band's debut is an ambitious hour long song divided into three parts with some considerable substance too. Now, I'm not saying this band is headed for Crimson III, but if that doesn't pique your curiosity just ignore everything I just said and listen to "Clyde Jefferson Rag". Really looking forward to hearing what the band writes next.
