When Bring Me the Horizon decides to actually allow a song to grow and develop without the excessive use of breakdowns, they sound pretty good; yes this is deathcore/metalcore/hardcore disguised as metal, well what ever you want to call it; still in all fairness there are some pretty good moments in which it doesn’t matter if you are one of those true kvlt (I don’t even know if you write it that way, there for showing my lack of kvlt!) you will eventually headbang… a little but you will.

The album those sound pretty generic, but at the same time it has some moments that show you that there is talent in here after all, a perfect example of that is track # 4 “A Lot Like Vegas” a song with great guitar lines, and a melodic “atmosphere” that remains me of As I Lay Dying (and if you hate that band too then just stay away from this album!).

BMH apart from all the numerous breakdowns at times show a sort of progressive idea behind some of the “stop and go” riffs, still they don’t really manage to get a grip of the uncontrolled repetitiveness that those breakdowns bring to the songs, burying some great moments just to create those awful moments that are needed for reasons that escapes me.

Black & Blue is another song with a great guitar solo, almost lifting your hope of an actual song growing outside the deathcore intermitted riffs, but as the rest of the album is, it ends up disappointing, transforming a good song into bits and pieces of anger thrown at you for no other reason than to create a bad interrupted fury.

Count Your Blessings can be described as a good album; it those have a fair amount of good songs, the problem is the relentless use of breakdowns destroying those nice guitar lines displayed in more than 5 tracks.
