Background

In May 2016, the ensemble added a new female vocalist by the name of Alexa Kabazie before broadcasting the music video for "Give in to Me", the very first single from the album.[2] On September 9, 2016,[3] the ensemble released the work, produced by Kile Odell.[4] In December 2016, the ensemble released videos for both "Control"[5] and "Worth the Pain",[6] two tunes from the album.[7]

Critical reception

The album is portrayed by Larry Petro of American radio station KNAC as "Evanescence meets Lacuna Coil (sans the unclean singing) with the heavy backbone of Disturbed".[8]
