Cost: $1.00
Had to look this up before buying just to verify it was The Ugly Truth/Fit to Be Tied band, since the cover art and the generic logo look like something a Victory Records hardcore band would have used (I'm particularly reminded of All Out War). I only have the band's debut, which was pretty decent crossover thrash, but here they've unfortunately taken on more of a '90s sound. It's still punky and somewhat crossover-ish at times, but a lot of the frantic thrashing has been replaced with groove metal elements. Even the faster material doesn't come across as being all that energetic, and at times it even feels more like a '90s alternative rock album. Vocals are vaguely James Hetfield-ish, which I believe is a similar style as on the second album.
