2.0 out of 5 stars Poor at best, 3 May 2008
By J. Osborne - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have to agree with the first reviewer on this one. After listening to this a few times, i've really tried to like it, but can't help but feel they could have made this so much better. Some tracks seem to go on and on and you're left forever waiting for the big riff/chorus to kick in, to no avail. It is then, unfortunate that these are the dominant force on this album.

They've certainly left their prime, and it will be interesting to see where they go from here.

2.0 out of 5 stars What have Anti-Flag done?, 15 April 2008
By Mike Reed (Bromley, Kent) - See all my reviews
I doubt there are many people who love Anti-Flag more than me, but this album is HORRIBLE. Let me say at the beginning that I'm not against bands experimenting, trying new sounds or maturing - it can often lead to pleasant surprises and show unknown depths to them. Unfortunately this experiment by Anti-Flag is nothing but unpleasant.

When the band transferred to big label RCA before the previous album For Blood And Empire, I wasn't particularly against it like many fans, as I felt anything that would spread their urgent anti-war and anti-capitalist message to a wider audience was a good thing. I didn't feel the album was a sell-out either despite its softer sound. However this album is a sell-out. It doesn't even contain an essay booklet like the previous two albums so it's not even trying to inform in the same way.

Right, the album itself. I'm sorry to say in my opinion, there are only two good songs - Spit In The Face, a breakneck true punk song, and Tar And Sagebrush, which actually has a country and western tinge, which I feel proves I don't mind bands experimenting. The rest of the songs range from average to plain awful. In particular, Vices is an abomination. Where has the shrill female vocal come from on this and other songs? And a children's choir? What the hell?!!

The song We Are The Lost contains the lyric "we are the lost, the dead and gone, the seldom seen, we are the helpless and the hopeless, that no one wants to see". I fear this will become Anti-Flag's epitaph if they don't return to their punk roots quickly.

By Mr. C. J. Davies - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
terrible, i listened to it once and havnt listened tyo it again, i am a big fan of anti-flag but what the hell have they done! if you wana buy an anti-flag cd, get For blood and empire, die for your government, the terror state or a new kind of army......in other words all the rest of anti-flags albums are proper good but this one is horrible so buy a different one.
