CONGREGATION OF THE DAMNED is an album that amalgamates all of Atreyu's strengths into one explosive artistic and musical statement. There's the earnest spit of "So Wrong," with its ballad-gone-hardcore heaviness and Miguel and Jacobs euphoric guitar lines, the `70s metal bounce and uber-chorus of "Black Days," and the clarion call intro, haunting guitar harmonies and vocal exorcisms of "Congregation of The Damned." If you thought you had Atreyu pegged, just shake the Etch-A-Sketch in your mind and start drawing a bigger picture.
