Mostly a mess, but even when it's a mess I still appreciate the grassroots underground punk feel of the album. Except for track 2, I don't want to hear it again, but major respect is due to Converge for working their way up from this.

Really bad vocals and mixing ruin an otherwise average Metalcore debut. Not much here hinting at their future.
