│║ Description : ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Here, at last, after nearly six years, is the ║ │
│║ long anticipated fourth release from the ║ │
│║ power/progressive metal outfit Division: Control ║ │
│║ Issues. The new disc brings us 11 more tracks of ║ │
│║ their trademark melodic heavy metal sound, ║ │
│║ comprising about 49 minutes of music to enjoy. ║ │
│║ This is also the first album to feature the band ║ │
│║ as it is currently configured. According to the ║ │
│║ liner notes, former Division member Matt Crooks ║ │
│║ has contributed with some of the songwriting ║ │
│║ featured on this album and apparently also ║ │
│║ helped with some of the mixing as well. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Upon initial impressions of the new album, I've ║ │
│║ noticed that it seems to take a heavier, ║ │
│║ thrashier route than their previous release, the ║ │
│║ excellent Trinity, which was released back in ║ │
│║ 2004. Also, another very good impression was the ║ │
│║ overall sound and production quality of this ║ │
│║ album. First, the front of the package is graced ║ │
│║ by some really cool album art provided by Tom ║ │
│║ Fleming. Not only that, but the sound on the ║ │
│║ album is very well mixed and produced. The ║ │
│║ vocals appear front and center as they should ║ │
│║ be. Each instrument is given its own space, with ║ │
│║ no one particularly crowding out the others. ║ │
│║ This gives each member of the band a chance to ║ │
│║ showcase his particular talent on this album. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ And speaking of the band member's talents, ║ │
│║ vocalist Nick Kelly's gritty voice lends itself ║ │
│║ very well to the somewhat darker material ║ │
│║ presented on this album. Not only that, but ║ │
│║ there is some pretty sweet bass riffing provided ║ │
│║ by Ron Cummings-Kralik. Plenty of guitar solos ║ │
│║ abound, provided by Mike Blevins and Dave Evans. ║ │
│║ Of course, no metal album is complete without ║ │
│║ the thunderous drumming given to us by James ║ │
│║ Goetz, providing the raw energy needed to back ║ │
│║ this thing up. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Overall, I found this to be an excellent, solid ║ │
│║ offering from this talented group of musicians. ║ │
│║ Fans of Division, especially the current lineup, ║ │
│║ will really enjoy this album, as well as those ║ │
│║ metalheads that just love a good heavy dose of ║ │
│║ power/prog/thrash metal with some old-school ║ │
│║ trappings. Just don't expect anything truly ║ │
│║ original or groundbreaking here. For a good ║ │
│║ solid offering of some excellent straight-up, ║ │
│║ no-nonsense heavy metal, I would recommend ║ │
│║ giving this a try. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ ║ │

│║ Nick Kelly - vocals ║ │
│║ Mike Blevins - guitars and backing vocals ║ │
│║ Dave Evans - guitars ║ │
