The concept for this album is pretty bizarre. It is an acoustic/orchestral reworking of their previous album, Dead End Kings, to emphasis the vocals and eliminate all of the heaviness... track for track. Half crowd funded and half label funded, no less. And... it works. It turns a great album into a collection of beautiful and haunting dirges so somber it makes you hurt. The vocals and lyrical delivery are breathtaking.

4.0/5 - Great album. Such a dark and depressing listen, but an incredible album if you're into that kind of thing.
