Picked it up to continue supporting them

Verified Purchase:Yes
still haven't listened to this one all the way through yet, but what i haven listened to so far ain't bad. HU's previous release, "Notes From The Underground" was ok, but i wasn't too impressed by it. I feel that the band is going to have a hard time living up to their breakout titles, "Swan Songs" and "American Tragedy" which were both great.
If you wanna take the chance and show your support, pick it up, but i'm comfortable disclosing that this isn't an album i'd reach for if i wanted to throw on some (or introduce somebody to) Hollywood Undead.
my 'yes' recommendation for a friend would be for my friends that already listen to Hollywood Undead - if you're not already a fan, you might not enjoy it (and if you're a DIE-HARD fan of their OLD stuff, then you might actually be a little disappointed :/ )

Another great album from this artist!

** Silverstein is one of my all-time favorite bands, and has been for over a decade, so my review may be a little biased towards positive; I've seen them live over 20 times and met them on several occasions, and the truth is, they never disappoint. **
To be honest, I wasn't too sure how I felt about the band switching labels (from Hopeless Records to Rise Records) but the switch didn't seem to have any impact on their songwrititng - it's still pretty much in line with the most recent entries in their catalog, "Rescue" and "This Is How The Wind Shifts".
The album itself is great - it's a four-part concept album and features soundbites from cities across north america. There are some heavier songs and some more mellow ones, faster paced ones and a couple slow ones (a ballad and an acoustic). If you're already a fan of (or at least familiar with) Silverstein's work as a whole, then this will no doubt be an enjoyable listen for you and i highly recommend picking it up if you haven't already. If you aren't so familiar with them, i'd recommend picking up their debut and sophomore albums "When Broken Is Easily Fixed" and "Discovering The Waterfront" to whet your pallet first, but this album will surely still be a great addition to your collection if you're a fan of screamo/post-hardcore in general.
Rock on!
