The local hereos are back with their second full-length effort (first for Eulogy). 9 songs of power, creativity, sincerity, and total emotion as always. So there are 9 songs on this... 2 new songs (Cupid's Diary and Disintegrating Eden), they re-recorded 3 songs off of Fragments.. (Kissing Perfection's Cheek, If I Wore A Mask, and Significant Others) and the 4 songs off the demo (My Unbroken Reflection, Writing In Cursive [ which also was on a Breakeven Comp], The End Of August, and The Effects Of Departure...). Great work from these guys. I'm a little upset at the layout, it's not as creative as I would expect from these guys. The one thing that bothers me the most is the fact that you can't hear Shaw's vocals over the music, you really have to listen to hear him (or turn it up really loud, which you should do anyway).The recording I believe was done at Skylight but it doesn't say in the cd. Also they changed some parts on older songs that threw me for a loop. Ahh I'll just shut up. As I said they always inject all their possible emotions into their music and this is no exception, from start to finish. Musically the Guitars are harder and at times faster, more precise, the precussion is down right perfect, while the bass just floats along blending emotions with beauty. I really don't have to tell anyone to buy this you should already have it.
