The classic vocals stylings of W.J. King in the tradition of Bruce Dickenson go well with the heavy vox of Steve Kremer which are more in the style of Hatebreed or Bury Your Dead. Jason Rowland is an absolute shredder on guitar and does a damn decent job of engineering the album. Matt LeFevre is solid on bass, holding things down with a nice fat tone -- let's see what did I forget -- oh yeah, the band needs a drummer.

The drum machines are ample, just a little boring, and as it stands the entire production is riding on the strength of the guitars. The stand-out tracks are the first one, "Far Into The East," "Never Again" and "Tearing The Life." "Again We Bleed" is the first effort from Godsize Hate and impressive at that, especially in consideration of being a do-it-yourselfer. One hopes these guys can get some label interest and get in the studio.
