Sounds like Imagine Dragons woke up on the wrong side of the bed.

This sounds too much like the soundtrack to a Michael Bay film. Nothing against soundtracks, but they’re created to complement the film. There’s no film here so those grand instrumental bits feel saccharine. The vocals are overly dramatic. Lyrics are cliche after cliche. Production is falteringly derivative. Instrumentation is solid, but ends up feeling off balance with nothing else to latch onto. 2/5

If this came out in 2004 it would’ve made more sense given the whole vibe of the album. I probably would’ve loved it if it came out then. It has a strong Linkin Park sound which may be why they could pull it off in 2014. It’s not as hardcore as some other numetal music but it also isn’t much different from a genre that was significantly more popular years before this album. Doubt I’ll revisit this one. 5.6/10

Damn, I almost missed this. This is awesome. Have loved "My Demons" for a really long time, but hadn't thought about listening to the whole album. But not much is happening throughout honestly. 2

The sort of rock music that just does nothing for me.
