Senses Fail is one of my favorite pop screamo bands. That said, this is not their best album. This is mainly due to the production, which makes the heavier moments not hit as hard as they should and makes some of the tracks hard to tell apart. However, there are a few standouts on here. Safe House and Landslide have good melodies, Irish Eyes and Coward are easily the best heavier cuts on here, and The Fire manages to take the rough production and make it sound like the studio is incinerating around them. Other than that, most of these songs are good, but not quite great. Except Lifeboats and New Year's Eve, those two are annoying. Hold On isn't good, either.
