Nekje sem prebral, da je ovitek na tem albumu delo Seana Taggarta, hardcore umetnika, ki je poznan po Agnostic Front, Crumbsuckers in Carnivore ovitkih. To naj bi bil njegov edini Punk ovitek v desetih letih in izgleda, da so fantje zelo ponosni kar se tega tiče. No ja, vsak ima svoj okus, mene npr., bi bilo sram takega ovitka. Izgled je popolnoma beden in otročji in res ne vem s čim se je Sean ukvarjal vsa ta leta? Brez dvoma ovitek, ki lahko odvrne še tako potencialnega kupca. Kar se tice glasbe, igrajo enostaven in surov punk/hardcore s hitrimi in srednje hitri ritmi, ki včasih preidejo v temna, počasna območja distorziranega bass brenčanja ali pa v bolj melodicno smer kjer izstopajo backvokali in tu pa tam kakšna kratka kitarska solacija. Glasba sama je ok, ampak vokal totalno pokvari vzdušje in otežuje poslušanje. Tip uporablja monotono, grobo in neprijazno godrnjanje, ki zana biti komu vseč, ampak mene že v prvi minuti poslišanja odbije. Se mi zdi, da igrajo Sheer Terror podobno glasbo, ampak ne me vzet za besedo. Besedila so zelo gosta in obširna, se rimajo, ter opisujejo njihov pogled na družbo, vsakdanje živlenje, ter vso pokvarjenost, ki jo le ti proizvajata. Niti slabo, niti dobro. Jaz vidim Awkward Thought kot bend, ki je glasbeno zasidran nekje v preteklosti (desetletje nazaj), kar pomeni, da ne boste našli tu nič novega, vendar imam občutek, da so fantje (bend obstaja že vec kot 10 let, tako da ne vem če je ''fantje'' najbolj primerna beseda?) s tem albumom dosegli vse tisto, kar so nameravali.

English Version:
I read somewhere that the cover for this record was drawn by Sean Tagget, an hardcore artist known for his past record covers for Agnostic Front, Crumbsuckers and Carnivore. It was also mentioned it's his first Punk cover he has done in over ten years and it seems like these guys here are very proud having such an honour. Well, everyone has a taste of his own. For example, I would be shamed of having such a terrible layout. Front cover is totally silly and childish and I really don't know what was Sean doing all these years? Certainly an unpleasant thing that could avert a potential costumer. As it concern music, it's plain and rugged punk/hardcore with fast and midtempo rhythms, which sometimes lead into obscure regions of distorted bass drones or slightly more melodic directions adorned with backvocals and some rare guitar solos here and there. The music alone is ok, but the vocal totally destroys the atmosphere and making this songs hard to listen. It's monotonous, rough and sounds like unfriendly grumbling, which might be cool to somebody but not for me...it makes me decline in the first few minutes. I think Sheer Terror play similar music but I might be wrong. Lyrics are very dense and extensive, they rhyme and express their views on society, everyday life and all the fucked up things produced by both. Not bad, not good either. I see Awkward Thought as a band musically casted somewhere back in the past (mid 90's), but they probably didn't intended to achieve something more original in the first place so, who cares. They've been around for more than ten years and I'm the last person they want to hear that this's not good enough. Anyway, you won't find here anything new!
