Of Mice & Men - Restoring Force review

Apart from the fact that I am a huge progressive rock/metal nerd, I have a soft spot for metalcore. It can be good, just not great. Breakdowns are probably the most overused thing in the genre and some of the songs lyrically, suck.

Of the metalcore bands I listen to, Of Mice & Men is one of them. Their second album, The Flood, was a good album. It's guilty of it's breakdowns, but it was a good album. Well they're back with a new album called Restoring Force.

Restoring Force is different than their previous albums. It basically combines nu metal with metalcore and it sounds really good. I actually didn't walk into this album with high hopes, but as soon as I finished the album... I was really impressed. It's very heavy and fast. It still has it's breakdown moments, but they actually fit really well and they aren't the usual breakdowns you hear in metalcore music. They also have a new clean vocalist and he sounds so much better than the last guy.

If you're a fan of Of Mice & Men, you'll love this album. If you're just looking to listen to some mainstream heavy music, you'll probably be surprised that you'll like it. It's not something for everybody to listen to, but if you're into this type of music... You will like it.
