Atreyu - Fractures In The Facade Of Your Porcelain Beauty (CD 2006)

As everyone else has said this album has 3 tracks in common with Suicide Notes, plus two others. The two that are solely on this album are really nothign great... I've probably listened to them two or three times in the 6 months I've had this CD. Don't get me wrong, the version of "Someone's Standing on My Chest" from this album is one of my favorite songs ever, but it only gets 4/5 due to the inclusion of the quite-mediocre "Taking Back Every Word That I Said" and "A Letter to Someone Like You" bring it down some. They're just sloppy-sounding songs.
Anyway people have mentioned that this album sounds a little different from Suicide Notes. Actually, it sounds a LOT different because they use a much heavier guitar tone on this disc. I feel that all the songs on Suicide Notes sound watered down and weak, while on this disc they have a much hotter, fuller, and heavier sound. You have to hear it to fully understand. SO BUY IT.

If you like the metalcore, this album is quite a bit more metal-sounding than Atreyu's full-length release. The versions on this EP are far better and it's a shame they changed their tone so much on Suicide Notes. It's truly bone-crushing here. Also check out the "Victory Style 5" sampler from Victory Records for a much heavier version of A Song for the Optimists.
