Major Dissappointment

"I instantly became a huge fan of Grade 8 when I heard their first album. It was one of those albums that you could just throw in your cd player and let it run through without having to skip a track.
When I saw that they had a new album coming out, I jumped for joy. But that was before I actually heard the album. Not only is it bad for Grade 8, it might be one the worst ive ever heard. It makes me sad that such a great band can put such garbage.
Here are my gripes.
1) The guitar riffs are no where near as awesome and mind-blowing as the first. They use a lot of DJ and just random sounds to fill out the songs, some of which are cool, but most of which suck and are just plain strange.
2) Ryan TRIES to sing.....oh man I thought he was dieing, cuz it sure sounds like he is. Theres almost none of his signature growling like on the last album. Terrible.
3) The lead singer tries to sing.....wait, did I already mention that?
I can honestly say that there are NO decent songs on this album. Please find somewhere on the internet (ie fye.com or some place like it) and listen to the tracks before you buy."
