This album is manic and diverse. A great introduction to early Converge.

This album isn't as good as some of their later releases, but there are some great tracks. The Saddest Day really starts this album off on the right foot.

A seriously underrated gem. The Saddest Day is a top 5 Converge song.

"The Saddest Day" and "Color Me Blood Red" are incredible, but the rest of the album is a lot more inconsistent, I'd say it's pretty fairly rated
