THE REVIEW

We are not at the levels of "The Curse" or "A Death-Grip on Yesterday" but the new album by Atreyu is listenable from start to finish.

The almost completely abandoned party and mainstream atmospheres of the previous work, the first under Roadrunner Records, the metalcore quintet led by singer Alex Varkatzas seems to have found the right path again, the one that had brought them great critical and public success with titles such as "Bleeding Mascara", "Right Side Of The Bed", or "Lip Gloss And Black". To be honest, there are no memorable episodes like those just mentioned, but at least the intention, which had been lacking in recent times, is there.

Summary by Bot

Atreyu's 'Congregation Of The Damned' marks a return to their metalcore roots after a more mainstream phase. While not matching the impact of earlier works, the album remains listenable throughout with a clear renewed direction. Fans may miss standout tracks but will appreciate the band's regained focus.
