3 stars A very gimmicky album to my ears. The first couple times I heard Unrest was amazing. Quickly my opinion dropped and I never listened to the album. I find once the changes have been heard they lose their shock value and one can see the music between transitions. For me that music is sparse and uninteresting.

For a brief time I really liked this album, not anymore, one of a handful of albums that has plummeted after multiple listens. I recommend the debut over this album, Nine Funeral Of The Citizen King and Amygdala are nice, even if Teenbeat fills that album. Still, I do think Ruins/Deluge are nice songs and if one wants to hear this album I would say start with those two.

Beautiful Scarlet | 3/5 |
