Underoath Well, this live cd/dvd has a pretty high quality. The dvd looks amazing, except for the fact that they got Young & Aspiring titled in the dvd as Returning Empty Handed, which was the first song (who would...

Project 86 To be honest, there is not one song on this album that stands out...they all do! I cannot pick my favourite song, cause on each listen you find a new favourite. I suggest you go get it, now. And if you...
A Small Misunderstanding Leads To Disaster

The Valley Pretty awesome band from Sydney, which unfortunately broke up. They appeared at the Tooth & Nail stage at one of the recent Cornerstone's (I think) before the split. You can now get this whole EP for free...

This album pwns. Great songs, makes you wanna play it over and over again. Fair good.
The vocals on this album are a lot different to the last, as they have a new guy (he can sing AND growl, yet he's a vegetarian). He is really good they we he controls his voice.
There are more softer songs on this album. More singing. Like Stitches and The Minor Prophets.
IF you like a good clean metal album, go pick up Pressure The Hinges. You'll love it.

Redeemer is high on my list of favourite albums. This is more melodic than previous NJ albums, which I don't like that much, and has got more instrumental work and singing. Yes, SINGING. So far, Redeemer has to be my favourite album so far. Enough to keep you listening for weeks.

Here we go. I brought this album second with Norma Jean's "Redeemer", which was also second hand, because it was cheap and I had the money. I came home, ripped it, listened to it probably only once, had only 3 tracks I really liked, My Darkness, Pallbearer and Saints, and never listened to the album as a whole again. It wasn't until recently that my MP3 player had to be returned (a SanDisk Sansa m250, really dodgy with the track tag software on the player) that I started listening to the actual CD's again, and I decided to put "Saints" on. I read along with the lyrics, and really like the album. It's really an album that you have to listen to at least twice before it becomes really addictive. It's really catchy and heavy. Destroy The Runner are really good at combining growling/screaming (or something in between) as the verses and talented singing as choruses. My favourite tracks now would have to be Without Sight, There Can Be No Hesitation and Thoughts In Reverse. My final advice would have to be: If you don't like it the first time round, listen to it again later. You might notice something or like the tracks you originally hated.
