The big problem is that the light-to heavy (relatively speaking) arrangements are tolerable if the songwriting is especially catchy or the band...June 12, 2006

The Phoenix Throne
The only thing I remember about DEAD TO FALL's "Villainy and Virtue" (the Chicago band's second release) was that it barely left an impression on me. Not bad, not great, just kind of ho-hum metalcore that could be taken or left. As such, my expectations were not very high for "The Phoenix Throne". A...April 24, 2006

He's kinda got that wheezy Joe Elliot thing going on (minus the million-dollar production, obviously),which combines with the slightly more modern feel of opening track "...January 30, 2006
