A Wilhelm Scream influenced by several different styles of music including punk, hardcore and metal. They've taken those influences and put together an album that will have a lot of appeal. They have great melodies and harmonies, but add in some heavy parts and guitar solos which keep that harder edge. Great album.
Grade: 93
