AILD was pretty decent with their debut into the Metalblade family.

I actually like As I Lay Dying, I only have Frail Words Collapse, and it's very good. Very melodic leads, and they sometimes border on hXc. They also have a pretty good drummer; he's very fast. Anyone who likes that kind of stuff and can put up with a little bit of "whining" should give it a shot.

It's the whining that really gets me. I just can't take crap like this seriously:

The Pain Of Separation

How can I bear this any longer
Take me away
Arms stretched out only to hold separation
Take me away
Take me away
Take me away
Take me away

I'm dying inside, emptied before you
Take me into your arms

I will fight until the day when I will see you
Sight given to these blind eyes

When will I
be taken from this life
take what is yours
You deserve more than my life
You deserve more than my life

Take me Away!

I'm eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeemo! I'm not worthy of my giiiiiiiiiiiiirlfriend! I am a worthless hunk of worthless shadow in this burned-out shell of a charade of a bad joke of a life! :roll: :lol:

Actually, the 'You' is in reference to God. As I Lay Dying are a Christian metalcore band.

Every time they make reference to 'you,' they're talking about God.

Wheeeee.

That's one of the funniest things I've ever heard. I can never take Christian prostrating seriously, either.

Well from what I listened to, it sounds like any other metalcore band.

Eh, Faulkner wasn't THAT fucking great.

As for the band, they are mediocre in every sense, except the clean vocals which are cringe-worthy.

Absolutely correct, they are typical metalcore. If you like metalcore, you probably like this band. If you think metalcore sucks, as I do, stay the fuck away because you'll surely hate it.

To me, they're just another mediocre In Flames-core band. Nothing new, fresh, or original. They play the same songs just as well as everyone else. Not specifically bad, but not good either.
