It's very generic, metalcore drumming. His screams are very monotone and boring, hardly even a scream. You stand so close to me as I lay dying? Occasional 12ths to throw you off guard, but nothing too rhythimically displacing to make it interesting. As I Lay Dying are definitely not trying to reinvent the wheel, but rather they just try to be good at what they do. Lyrics taken from /lyrics/a/as_i_lay_dying/. No Lungs To Breathe. Only After We've Fallen. "Forsaken" also dives into emo-land, a little more so than the title track and while undoubtedly catchy and sure to be a fan favorite, that song is just too sappy for my tastes.
Artist ||As I Lay Dying |. I've always considered him one of the best screamers of the genre. Yet I knew you were at, Knew you were at rest. Boring the barriers that kept others away (away).
Say what you really mean. Unfortunately, this album also seems to drag on for too long. It's a nice little tune to get you into the mood for listening to music. On An Ocean Between Us As I Lay Dying has now incorporated thrash metal into their brand of melo-death. The main problem I had with it is that most of the songs just sounded the same! Some things never change.

For what use is there in praying. The songs are often riddles with unnecessary, "melodic", higher riffs overdubbed during the choruses and such. It's a lot more thrashy, heavier, and especially more varied than their 2005 release Shadows Are Security. Oh yes, sounds like Demon Hunter regurgitated. And was consumed with the allure despite the inevitable decay.
Wait here for death. I thought I was an architect but I was just moving dirt. When This World Fades. Fans of metalcore will definitely find something to like here, though others who generally wouldn't look this album's way might want to consider seeking it out in the discount area. I never wanted, I've grown tired of chasing. The guitarists are clearly very skilled, albeit, appear to be wasted producing this album, largely through to the vocalist taking centre stage, as opposed to the other way around on other bands' releases as of late; this being said, what's being played is very respectable, with regards to complexity and ensuring the album's listened to from start to finish. There are often quite brutal and great growls under these, but these All Time Low-esque, autotuned drones take away from the experience also. These are also found in the choruses. An Ocean Between Us shows the band improving in both technical abilities and songwriting, especially on the guitar work.
