This album is very juvenile, simplistic and the least impressive in their discography.

That being said, this album shaped an entire genre and was ripped off for years to come. The sound to this album quickly became seen as generic, but that was simply because every other warped tour era band ripped off the sound until it became played to death.

No one could do it quite like the original though. No particular song in this album stands out from their discography, however the drum work is extremely memorable to this day. Paired with the production work of Joey Sturgis, the drumming on this album is absolutely phenomenal with some of the best writing and most memorable drum fills you will ever hear.

The guitar, when compared to the drumming, seems very simplistic. That doesn't take away from it at all though, as some of the riffs are super memorable. Even this bands greatest detractors would recognize them immediately.

Although the lyrics and some of the content didn't age well, It's a solid album that will survive the test of time because of its phenomenal production. It launched their very successful career and was extremely influential, and anyone who denies it's influence is simply wrong.

Sumerian Records 소속의 밥줄이자, 트렌디한 Metalcore 씬에서 활력을 불어준 이들 나름의 명반이다. 본작을 통해 Asking Alexandria의 인기가 급상승 했는데, 주옥 같은 명곡이 여럿 실리기도 하고 수록곡도 빵빵하게 13곡이나 수록 되어 있기에 충분히 인기에 반영할만큼 완성도 또한 특별히 나무랄때가 없다. [The Irony of Your Perfection]에서 이들의 가능성을 미리 파악하고 코어씬에서도 유명한 Sumerian Records가 프로듀싱도 맛깔나게 신경써줬지 않나 싶다.

뻔할 수 있는 구조인 Riff-Breakdown-Riff-Breakdown-Bridge-Breakdown 구조에 Clean vocal과 Trance 요소를 적절하게 첨가해서 식상함을 탈피할려는 시도가 엿보인다. 무엇보다 튀는 부분은 Clean vocal line이 제법 귀에 잘 꽂히는 것과 Deathcore를 살짝 걸쳐서 빡셈을 강조한 Breakdown part 또한 애써 곡의 완급을 신경쓴 듯한 것 같기도 하다. 그리고 Sing along을 유도시킬만큼 괜찮은 Hook도 있어서 접근성 또한 좋은 것도 장점이다.

제법 Metalcore의 한계를 탈피할려는 시도가 돋보이지만, 늘 독이 될 수 있는 Breakdown 남발은 여전히 지루한 건 매한가지다. 특별히 Breakdown part를 다양하게 쪼개거나, 정박, 변박을 자유롭게 활용해서 다채롭게 풀어내지 못한 건 역시나 아쉬웠다. 늘 그렇듯이 '0000-00-00-00'이나, '000-000-00' 같은

This is the crabcore album for metal heads. It doesn’t lean into its crabby brother too hard (no auto tune on the choruses, electronics relatively muted) but it keeps a unique Identity. It almost feels like a sequel to Someday Came Suddenly because they’re very similar, but with Stand Up And Scream just better in most facets. Great drum work, very early 2010s guitars, with Danny throwing in an amazing vocal performance.

The harsh vocals are good and the drumming is great. Unfortunately, the clean vocals are cringeworthy, the melodies & composition are lame, and there are rookie mistakes such as tacked-on string sections. Even the trance fails because it's not well integrated (a disappointment, because I was looking forward to it). Not good, and I don't want to listen again.

10대의 패기로 가득찼던 충격의 Asking Alexandria 데뷔작. 불후의 명곡 The Final Episode와 A Prophecy 외에도 좋은 곡들이 많이 포진되어있다

(수정)엘리티스트였을때는 정말 싫어했던 밴드인데 지금 들어보니 신경쓴 부분도 많네요 ㅎㅎ 특히 뜬금없지만 위화감이 없는 신디와 긴장감 있는 분위기, 일부 리프가 맘에 듭니다. 팬들에게는 죄송하지만 과한 브렉다운과 속도감의 부제는 곡들이 다소처지게 만들고 가사가 제 취향은 아니군요

음 일딴 곡들은 좋은곡은 많은데 편차가 심하다 그게 마이너스요인이여서 아쉽다..
