I've been meaning to check these guys out. I heard a coupl songs from their myspac and they sounded pretty good. They are touring with Edguy this summer.

This is actually very good. I'm five tracks in and I am loving this. I hear traces of In Flames here and there, awesome stuff so far.

To me it sounds like a CoB makeover with a slightly different approach.Didn't like the album at all.For refreshing melodeath one should look elsewhere.

Pfff... no way. This is catchy but still very aggressive melo death.

Well,I'm glad you liked it. :)
I'd really wish more people listened to the album,I listen to most of the albums recommended here,even if it happens to find some that I don't like.To me LtC are aggressive alright,not over the top but just ok,still I think there's no clear direction to their aggressiveness.
I can't identify memorable moments on the album, riffs, leads, arrangements, and the vocals are pretty average to say the least.
Maybe I'm picky especially with this type of metal,but that's just me.

Yeah, I am not really sure how you got CoB out of this music, but to each their own. I think they LTC is far more aggressive than CoB.
