Lower Definition, after the release of their “Moths” EP in 2007, are releasing their first full-length album titled “The Greatest Of All Lost Arts”. The band from San Diego fit into the world of post-hardcore and not in any occasion do they get away from this music style. As for the Faith No More comparison I still can't understand where they pulled that from.

All the songs of the album follow the same music theme: Relatively melodic parts, with the one guitar focusing on the rhythm section, the lead guitar playing a more melodic riff over the top and with sweet vocals that give and go with death vocals and fast riffs. That happens in every song (with the exception of one or two) and, as a result, after a while the album starts to tire the listener with this constant repeat. The passing from the melodic parts to the faster and fierce parts is done most of the times with a loose and unpleasant way and to that is the singer that contributes too, switching from the tame to death vocals. As a result the songs lack of cohesion. In the few positive things belong some good lead guitar parts and some outbursts of the drummer, which however are not enough to save the case.

This album is worthy only for the fans of post-hardcore without, however, offering something special to them and with the possibility of them getting bored after a few songs. As for the rest of the rock fans, it doesn't deserve their time.
