The follow-up to Future of the Left's acclaimed 2008 debut Curses is both melodically brutal and uncompromising in its lyrical bit. Features the single "The Hope That House Built" with its marching Queens Of The Stone Age-style riff. The lead off track, "Arming Eritrea", sets the tone by lulling the listener into a false sense of security before exploding with a bloodthirsty roar of fuzzy bass and distorted guitar. The album's centerpiece, the synth-heavy "You Need Satan More Than He Needs You" finds the band at their savage best as keyboards bounce off hypnotic drumming and funky bass lines to create a devilish masterpiece that will captivate fans and newcomers alike.
