second, this band/cd is pretty generic, kinda sounds a bit like unearth. with that said, it's not bad, catchy.

horrible band

good band that sounds NOTHING like Unearth. If I had to compare them to anyone, it would be August Burns Red.

brassknuckleromance 6/8/2006 8:35:17 PM

just a re-release eh??? fck

Adam Dutkiewicz is a cheesy motherfcker, and his recordings are sub-par bullshit.

I enjoy this cd.

Who doesn't Adam D produce anymore? Surprised we don't see.. "slayer's new album produced by Adam Dutkiewicz"

xvegeedgex 6/8/2006 10:23:08 PM

Parkway drive? Sounds like a street in Hawthorne Heights.

punksucksgo 6/8/2006 11:00:18 PM

first - they do sound similiar to unearth at many points throughout killing with a smile........but they distinguish themselves a lot as well......to say they sound NOTHING like unearth is bullshit.

punksucksgo 6/8/2006 11:02:45 PM

second - this albums kicks ass and i dont give a fck what any of you blast beat humping losers say about it.........some of the riffs are simply spectacular.

Solid band, definetely along the lines of unearth, not so much August Burns Red. Adam Dutkiewicz does great work and I'm happy to see him producing albums during his down time with KSE. F all you haters.

Terrible name. I'll never listen.

xduderx 6/9/2006 12:50:06 AM

not terrible...but nothing new and amazing

Parkway Drive sounds nothing like Unearth. If you think that, you've obviously never listened to them. They're one of the best things to hit the metalcore scene. That's not saying much, but they're good. Glad to hear this.

withdeadhandsrising 6/9/2006 1:06:14 AM

i had this album forever ago, it's just getting stateside now?

theblackhole 6/9/2006 2:46:28 AM

killswitch engage sucks. adam dutksjfxiagay sucks and his productions are boring and bland metalcore bullshit. resist records who the fck are you. parkway drive no fcking care ever. epitaph records... hurry up with the new converge

getaids 6/9/2006 3:29:50 AM

I remember them being in MA last summer recording this record. Oh, and Adam is a great producer. If you don't think so, then you've probably never had the chance to work with him.

xthisblunt 6/9/2006 4:12:36 AM

better than i killed the prom queen.

epitaph should stick to putting out hip hop.

ITICHUSSIVI 6/9/2006 9:31:52 AM

fcking great band here. Yes its typical metalcore but they are above the rest. Adam D is the man and fck all the haters who post on this site. Hopefully Epitaph can do something good for this band.

mefuckyeah 6/9/2006 12:05:18 PM

Jesus something had to change at epitaph for signing these shitty bands that no one likes

shaihulud2k1 6/9/2006 12:57:28 PM

nothing special, catchy shit though. recording sounds way polished but its heavy.

Xithyl 6/11/2006 11:31:38 AM

Good band. Good to hear they're doing well. The full-length, EP and two splits are all solid.

TheWood 6/11/2006 1:40:49 PM

These guys totally sound like Unearth. You're fcking kidding yourself to think otherwise.
