    Holy identity crisis, Batman (no pun intended). I've never seen a band that wished they were on a 90's episode of MTV Unplugged as bad as these guy do.

    Song was ok.

    Singer might want to work on expanding the ceiling of his vocal range.

    I still fail to see what any song in this album has to do with transformers. i feel i could throw darts at a board covered with random dubstep and get an album that felt more transformers then this.

    I guess i just dont get it.

    Holy crap :eek:  ... is this song mediocre. :lol 

    This reminds me of those sampler CDs they used to make, with a bunch of no-name bands trying to get attention for largely ho-hum (i.e. derivative? copycat?) talent.

    Anyway, when I hear "ROLL OUT!!!" I just expect some damn energy. This song is kind of whiney... like the genre is just all wrong. Heck, when I hear Roll Out (and cause DP did it so well), I almost expect a kick-ass rap song (despite not being huge on THAT genre! :lol ). That's how disappointed I am with this.

    And why call it a "video"? I was expecting a lazy splash of TF cartoon clips or comic snippets... but this is a bunch of guys sitting around and playing music. Ugh. Can they try less hard? :) 

    On the positive side: the beat and chord are pretty sweet, but the lyrics/singing style kind of waste the decent music. Oh well.

    This fits the atmosphere of Transformers as well as a 600 pound woman fits in an airplane bathroom. Just throw on some black metal and go play Fall of Cybertron. You'll see what mean.

    Black metal... lol. I'd rather listen to Cher fart for 10 hours straight.

    Isn't that what Cher's albums are anyway?

    The music is solid, though like others have said doesn't really fit the tone of any Transformers media I've seen or read. Not really a fan of the singer, he isn't bad, there wasn't much variety in the notes he's singing, he just sort of stayed in the same register. I didn't catch all the lyrics, but wasn't really inspired to listen again to figure them out. I think this would be a decent band to catch playing at a bar.

    I applaud the effort, indie bands have it rough.

    That was awful. No Transformers even show up in the Music Video. Plus, the music was horrendous. I couldn't stand it at all.
    Yeah, I'm not interested in this album at all. The U.S. has barely any good Musicians out there, and these guys certainly aren't the exception.

    I fail to see what this song has to do with Transformers. Needs more energy, sad state of things for rock music nowadays.

    Now I need to clear that video from my YouTube history so I don't get spammed with similar recommended videos.
