Musical style
[edit]The EP's styles have been described as screamo,[7] emo[8] and melodic metalcore.[9] Matt Whelihan of Punknews.org described the sound as "metal-influenced screamo" and compared the album's guitarwork to Avenged Sevenfold, while likening the album's hooks to the "arena-screamo" of Hawthorne Heights and Underoath. He also described Escape the Fate as "Atreyu with a Drive-Thru Records singer".[10]
