Like fellow obscure class of 2001 members Skrape, Lifer, No One, From Zero, Flaw, Darwin's Waiting Room and 40 Below Summer, I'd lump this in the "fun yet generic" category of major label nu metal. The high points are "Reckoning", "Less of" and "Whimper", which all have a great energy to them, as well as the more melodic tracks "Face Down", "Useless" (a bizarre choice for an opening song) and "Know One", which showcase the band's knack for catchy and heartfelt melodies. Still though, nothing about this feels innovative in the slightest for 2001, which is the album's main downfall both artistically and commercially.
