1. Shut It Down -
This is an incredible opening track, The instrumental is an amazing combination of heavy & catchy. The lyrics are extremely well written, The vocals are quite incredible & fit the instrumental perfectly. I was instantly hooked on the album just listening to this track.

2. Rebuild -
Starting off with an extremely bad ass heavy melody, this song does not lose my interest through out the whole time. The lyrics are awesome, The vocals are executed perfectly. This song keeps the listener wanting to listen.

 It's safe to say this song keeps the excitement. The lyrics are very well written, The vocals are amazingly well performed. The instrumental is completely bad ass. This song is all-around amazing.

This song is extremely awesome, It is definately one of my favorite tracks if not my favorite. The lyrics are beautifully written and quite perfectly performed. This is one of the more Hip-Hop oriented tracks on the album for sure.

6. Hustle -
This is another amazing track, The instrumental is amazingly performed. The lyrics are very well written, The vocals are awesomely executed. I feel like this is a track that fans are really gonna enjoy due to the heaviness of the instrumental yet the catchy vocals.

7. Can't Go Back -
This song definately is another standout track in my personal opinion. It is another primarily Hip-Hop oriented track, However this song is basically a longer interlude style track. In the 2 minutes and 4 seconds this songs plays the band gets there point across. The lyrics are quite awesome and the vocals are really well performed.

8. No 9 to 5 -
This song has an almost electronic style opening beat but quickly goes to a Hip-Hop style and changes againg to a heavy rock instrumental. The lyrics are awesomely written, The vocals are really well written. This is another song that may be my personal favorite.

11. R.I.ot -
This is another heavier track, The instrumental is amazingly performed. The lyrics are very well written, The vocals are amazingly performed. This song is another track that does not lose excitement, I feel songs like this will make current fans of the band happy but will also catch the attention of new fans.

12. Problems -
This is an amazing way to end an amazing album. The instrumental is very well performed, It is quite havy and all-around bad ass. The lyrics are amazing, The vocals are simply perfection in my opinion. This song ends the album as perfectly as "Shut It Down" started it.

This album is a very good detour away from today's typical "Metal". This album has something that everyone will like. I think the band excellently mixed the genres of Hip-Hop & Metal and kind made them their own by added their own personal touch. This album is A definate sign that Scare Don't Fear truly have a bright future ahead of them.

Overall Rating: 9.5 / 10
