A Huge Disappointment
After getting my hands on Fall of Ideals, ATR quickly became my favorite metal band. Like many others, I was foaming at the mouth in anticipation of this new album. And, like many others, I feel extremely let down. It's clear that ATR have become sell-outs. No, selling out does not mean becoming popular or making catchy music. Selling out means catering to the lowest common denominator. The problem for ATR is that they really aren't good at making the sort of extremely poppy metalcore that they aimed to make. This album is very overproduced, uninspired, and the whole thing feels forced, like someone put a gun to their heads and screamed, "make an album to compete with Brittney Spears and Fallout Boy!" The resulting album is a failure, and a huge let down for all of us fans.
It's been said already
It's been said already, but I just don't know what happened here. The Fall of Ideals was a great metalcore album - strong songs with powerful and melodic choruses. Overcome has melodic songs with a few screams here and there in the background, they just went too far in a different direction. There are still a few songs that are decent listening, like "Two Weeks" or "Chiron", but there's just nothing really compelling you into a second listen. Nope, I'd recommend getting The Fall of Ideals instead, and hope their next outing will be stronger.
worried about vocals?
Im seeing toooo many reviews about Phils vocals when we're missing a VERY IMPORTANT aspect of this band. The instrumentals on this album are just as good as Fall of Ideals and you people are not realizing this. Yes the band is well known for Phils vocals, but do you think they'd be anywhere without the PHENOMINAL drumming of Shannon Lucas? (Though they have jason costa now) Or the playing of Mike and Oli? You guys are putting WAY too much focus on PART of the band, NOT REMEMBERING THAT TOURING TAKES A TOLL ON SOMEONES VOICE. Listen, im a drummer, and i give vocalists all the respect in the world, and pinpionting them on a subpar album and giving them the blame is BS. Sometimes the vocals cant be as intense as past albums. THE CD IS GOOD, AND THATS THAT.
