Witness

I love music. Rock and roll is one the greatest things ever invented my mankind as we know it... I love all kinds of rock, metal, and such... At first, I hated screaming... I thought that there was no talent in it, etc. Over the years, screaming has grown on me. Now I love it. When I first got into screamo, I listened to early Avenged Sevenfold and Killswitch Engage. As time went by, I came to love bands like All That Remains, The Devil Wears Prada, Attack Attack!, Underoath, Trivium, etc. One day my friend showed me blessthefall. I liked their original portrayal of the "screamo" style. It was catchy, just straight up rock. Amazingness. Then, I basically forgot about blessthefall as I listened to even more, newer hardcore groups, like Escape The Fate, and Threat Signal, and Scar Symmetry. Then, I read somewhere that blessthefall was making a new cd, and I thought it would be pretty interesting considering the change in blessthefall's line-up. So I bought the Witness the first day it came out, from amazon.com. All I can say, is this: I have listened to A LOT of rock. A lot of metal. And an UNGODLY amount of screamo... Witness is one of the BEST heavy metal albums I have EVER heard. From start to finish, the album's sound is simply captivating. Beau's voice is flawless. The screaming is better than before. The drums are an orgasm to the ears. The guitars are just mind-blowing. Everything is perfect. The balance of melody and sheer brute force is at the perfect equilibrium. The style is even more original than the first. The production is miles ahead of His Last Walk. One of the best albums in the hardcore scene to be released since The End of Heartache, or Ashes of the Wake, or even City of Evil. This cd is downright PERFECT. Like they said... THEY AREN'T DEAD. They are far from it. They are one of the best heavy bands of this decade. BUY IT NOW. Support and experience the next greatest hardcore act of our time.

Really good CD! Only had to buy it again because I moved to Florida for a few months for an internship and my ex decided he wanted it back since he was getting married to someone else. I had it at my parents house back up north and I didn't know where they would be able to find it. Sent it to him and haven't heard from him since! Saved me a bunch of hassle and awkwardness! Thank you Amazon!! Also this CD is super awesome and it has one small track that will make you laugh!

The songs on this are great, and this has been my first blessthefall CD ever, and maybe even first Post-Hardcore CD too. I played this countless times in my car and noticed that the darn major record labels just can't get past the fact that ruining the dynamic range has affected the review of this product. You can clearly hear the digital distortion from the intense limiting that they did during the mastering process of the making of the CD. I have yet to listen to this on other systems, but for the most part, it seemed to have a very blaring high end to it, that made ear fatigue kick in earlier than it should. Other than that, the structure of the songs is good, and there are some great mixing techniques and transitions to songs. Worth the money for the most part.

I bought this for my son. He says, what he likes about the album is that even though it is their earlier stuff, you can tell the band hasn't changed too much over the years. He loves the lyrics. Four stars instead of five because the sound quality is distorted compared to their newer stuff.

What an awesome band! I have their first album and decided I liked them enough to buy this album instead of torrenting it (haha)! Support your music scene and buy some great tunes from these guys!

Love this entire album!

The album was practically perfect. I loved it. There were no scratches on the disk and the music played great with no error!

Great buy for the buck, love their sound, very good mixture of styles of yells and singing keep it guys.

thank you

Always liked blessthefall this album is just amazing I definitely recommend to anyone

Such a good Cd - if you love Blessthefall then this is a must have - has so many classics!

Bon album de Blessthefall, le premier après le départ de Craig Mabbit au chant. Des chansons puissantes comme "What's left of me" ou "To hell & back", ou un peu plus soft comme "Hey baby, here's that song you wanted".

Also ich glaub zu dieser Band muss ich nicht viel sagen :)Nach dem ersten Album war ich von diesen Jungs einfach begeistert. Nachdem ich hörte dass der alte Sänger die Band verlassen hat war ich mir nicht sicher ob dieses Album nur annähernd mithalten kann, aber ich wurde nicht enttäuscht.Ich kann nur sagen holen leute ;)Der Sound auf der CD ist einfach spitze :) klingt echt fetzig :)
