This album is garbage. D.E.I. is much better. Newer material from this band is very over-rated!!! Repetitious junk!!!

you two fools are a pair of vulgar revisionists..."Catch 33" is a work of post-modern genius on par with "Dark Side of the Moon"...if you think the songs sound the same, you are both utterly lacking in aural sensitivity, and should therefore listen to FM Radio where the Brotherhood of Deficient Braincells abide.

M. Roach,
I'll go out on a limb and say you have about....... nil in the way of musical intelligence and background. This album is trash. It sounds like someone dragging a giant chainsaw through the mud. Again, Destroy, Erase, Improve was good material, this is not by any stretch. When you're done using neat words to impress children, make us aware!

metalguy,
I too have given up on them. I tried, but after chaosphere I started loosing interest and have not found a reason to wander back into their grove. Lamb O.G., SYL, Dimmu, SOAD, Killswitch, and such have pulled me back into a brutally untallented genre of metal.
