Advent - Remove the Earth (2008)

This is pretty decent metalcore, but unfortunately it really adds nothing new to the genre. The production and playing are solid, and the songs have lots of energy, but there's nothing here that you haven't heard before. Even when they step outside their usual style -- on the post-metal song "Three Seasons" -- my verdict is still the same: well done, but not very original. I guess if you only listen to Christian bands, then you'll love this, but otherwise it's an also-ran in an already crowded field.
