There's still some brutality left in them.. so they haven't gone completely "gay". I like overproduced metal and a bit of cheese and I'm an addict on good melodies. And they have some damn fine melodies on the new CD. The last 3-4 songs are really good. They have become a bit more groove metal orientated (some would say core..). But still there are a few trashy numbers in recent years.
My favorite albums are APP and NBC. FNF was damn catchy. Stabbing the drama.. dig that album a lot! They almost lost me with Sworn to a great divide. The first listens didn't impress me, but I gradually grew to like it.
