Hardcore punk is what they call it and the band has been doing it for quite awhile (they have three previous releases). After hearing the band, you might even consider them to be hardcore. Either way, there's nothing here that really knocked my socks off. There's a lot of bands out there who play this style of music. So, the question is, does Snapcase have what it takes to avoid being lost in the shuffle? Honestly, I couldn't say yes and I couldn't say no. I believe the determination of the band and what they do live (to promote this release) is what's gonna make or break them. By what I've read, it seems like the band does exceptionally well live and with three albums under their belt, well, that proves they have staying power (at least to a certain degree). As for my personal opinion, well, I'm not saying it's a bad album (because it isn't, really). It's one of those releases that I can listen to if I'm in the mood for something heavy. But, it's not something I'd throw in every day.
