BEST ALBUM OF 2005.......2007-02-20

great album, perfect. too bad the record label sucks, maybe the band would still be around if they got the promotion they deserved. i really want to know what their next album would have sounded like :(

Solid, but far from being something special........2006-10-02

This is another post-hardcore/post-punk/screamy vocals band, and this album is very similar to their last. The one difference is they've improved as songwriters, no doubt due to growing up. This album is really what happens when mediocre teenage songwriters become mediocre young adult songwriters. The songs are distinguishable, but not immediately so. As with most bands in this scene, the best thing they have going for them is the use of catchy melodies, rather than interesting songwriting. The lyrics can border on laughable as well. He spends a lot of time howling about the site of his grave, and the blood someone gave to him, etc. etc. Nevertheless, as a steady improvement over their last album, this one shows decent pop sensibilities, good energy, and has hints of raw talent. If they can make the composition a bit more consistant we should expect better things in the future.

Tunes To Come Back To On Occasion:
-Dark Heart Sillhouette
-Sillhoutte Serenade
-Banshee Ballet
-Coital Improv
-Joyless Euphoria (1st half - it goes on to become a bunch of wierd noise and a bonus track)

Take Em of Leave Em
-Vendetta Red Cried Rape...
-The Body and The Blood
-In Lieu of Dead Bodies
-Gloria
-Run

Songs To Try Your Hardest To Forget Were Ever Written:
-Shiver
-Great Castration

ven red is one of the BEST bands EVER (R.I.P).......2006-08-22

i bought this cd at the concert right when it came out....and even i was skeptical. i didnt think there would be ANY way to top Between the Never and the Now. i was wrong. as much as lovvvvve that cd i think this one is even better. i ve seen a few people ripping on zach for screaming....why? he has f*cking emotion and thats a lot more than a lot of other bands. this music is not like anything ive ever heard. yes in the sense that it has all the basic instruments, it is the same, ok...but the lyrics and zachs amazing vocal range...and the sheer 'catchyness' of the songs will make anyone a fan. and if you dont like them i think you'd be better off not admitting it.

Good while it lasted...........2006-03-22

I've had this album forever and give it a very solid 4 stars (I rarely give anything 5 stars). The main reason I write this review is because of a set of unfortunate circumstances. While VR has put out two great albums to date, this one being their best, it seems as if their record label wasn't so jacked to promote them so....if you didn't already know, Vendetta Red is broken up. Seven years together and they've decided they can't push it much farther, especially with nobody helping them out.

I highly recommend checking this album out, especially since it's the last stuff we'll ever hear from them. The majority of the tracks are above average even though the lyrical content is a bit gruesome. The vocal range of the singer is incredible and the band truly knows how to come up with infectious melodies.

R.I.P. VR (and Finch for that matter, they broke up too, weird)

How do they make violence sound so sterile?.......2006-03-10

My friend loves this cd to death, and made me exchange it for two of my cd's for a weekend (De-Loused in The Comatorium, and In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth... she got the better end of that deal) so I would "love it" too.. nothing could be further from the truth. The song titles and imagery are borderline tongue-in-cheek commentaries about the pervasively false mood of emo.. when in fact, they're part of the herd. The imagery is a complete joke, I'm sure lyrical fragments are already sprouting on MySpace headlines like a fungus. ("When you were laying face down in a pool of blood... you never looked so beautiful." ..are you serious?) The broken sentence-fragment metaphors, insipid similes, and convenient rhymes are right out of a junior high poetry book. The singer's voice is decent, but definitely not anything to write home about. Beyond that, though, and more distubingly, the music is weak up and down this crapfest of a CD. The intro and chorus of Silhouette Serenade would feel perfectly right at home in a Chase Financial commercial, with birds flying in slow motion, Kiefer Sutherland's voice declaring corporations are making life better for you, and so on... vomit. There's no energy, urgency, or real depth to any of the songs, and the whole album really has a mediocre, stagnant, undynamic quality to it. Hell.. even Anberlin's newest album blows this out of the water.
