Negative Positive
Title: Disappointed
Review: Burning Bridges surprised you with new breakdowns, non-stop intensity, and an extremely good blend of screaming vs. singing, proving that Haste the Day had loads of talent and potential as an upcoming metalcore band. I eagerly awaited their second release, expecting even more of this intensity.However, When Everything Falls left me disappointed. While there still were decent breakdowns and the music was still pretty driving, everything sounded the same. There was a lot more singing, which for me was another disappointment, but that's just preference (as is my dislike for their cover song). The intensity seemed to have been lost somewhere inbetween their live performance and the recording, because they were the most intense and heaviest show I saw of the 28 shows I went to at Cornerstone Festival this summer- but it's just not there when I listen to it on the CD.Haste the Day is still a great band, they just don't have much that separates them from the rest anymore.
Is the review positive or negative?
