It's not that that they've changed their formula so much as honed it to something so sharp it bleeds excellence. While everything here charges maniacally and furiously from the opening track -- and first single -- "Beyond Our Suffering," right on through to the set-closer "The Blinding of False Light," there are some slower intros on tracks such as "Parallels" and "Upside Down Kingdom" that work to stellar dramatic effect when the tunes give way to furious thrashing. The twin-guitar attack of Nick Hipa and Phil Sgrosso is sharper and heavier than ever here -- check the back and forth work on "The Only Constant Is Change" and "Anodyne Sea." At 44 minutes, The Powerless Rise feels more like 10. As a band, AILD has grown most is in their songwriting and production skills (the latter of which are now off the charts in terms of precision). The Powerless Rise, delivers on what their previous outings have handsomely promised. ~ Thom Jurek Professional Reviews: Alternative Press (p.104) - 4.5 stars out of 5 -- "[W]hat makes THE POWERLESS RISE such a stunning metal record is the band's commitment to vigorously kicking at their boundaries while remaining true to their sound." Kerrang (Magazine) (p.52) - "[S]tandout songs like 'Anodyne Sea' and the mini-marathon of noise that is 'Condemned' deliver where it counts..."
