This Album is absolutely amazing in my opinion. In fact, its good enough to probably make Flyleaf my favorite band. It combines pleasant and deep alternative rock with heavy metal to create beautiful symphonic joy to my ears. I actually look forward to listening to the CD whenever I have to go for a drive. For those of you who haven’t checked out this album yet I highly recommend it.
