"A lot of bands have done incredible re-releases or reimagined versions of songs, and those versions are usually stripped down and showcase a softer side. We wanted to do the exact opposite - to team up with some powerhouses in the deathcore scene (Brand of Sacrifice), and release something heavy, fast paced and aggressive."
"We will miss his smiles, his sincerity, his concern for others, and his impressive musical talent."

A solid approach to a new sound. At times hit and miss, but nevertheless proving future potential.
"Most will simply walk away with a bad taste of Nickelback."
"In Hearts Wake raised the level of performance standards in the heavy music world tenfold."
