Beauty And The Breakdown – On the review of this album I’m not going to do a track by track review has the band basically stay to the same formula and the songs don’t really stray that far from each other. The album’s song titles are inspired by children fairy tales such has Glass slipper(Cinderella), Let your hair down(Rapunzel), Enchanted rose(Beauty and the beast)and Mirror, mirror(Snow White). I think the album should have been called the beast and the breakdown has that would have been a more appropriate title has there is no beauty here this is a monster of an album that’s harsh, abrasive and choke full of groove orientated breakdowns that could snap necks, chugging guitars and double bass drums drive with energy and passion throughout this album. Mat Bruso the vocalist at the time of recording has a voice that you’ll either love or hate with it being very harsh and throaty with no singing just pure anger, his lyrics range from his childhood to lost loves but not once does he sound like a self pitying person that feels sorry for himself.
My Opinion – I first heard of this band whilst reading the Nottingham evening post who reviewed this album I sat there thinking this must be a manufactured American band until I heard one of their songs on mtv2 and at that point what the hell was the evening post doing reviewing a band like this had they all gone crazy this is not linkin park this band is not pop/rock band this band are heavy, ugly and in your face. Overall if you’re a fan of bands like throwdown, pantera, and hatebreed you’ll have heard of this band maybe not there music but the name and if you are a fan of those bands who have not heard BYD you’ll love this album. And their first two You had me at hello and Cover your tracks. Go buy now this instance!

Album Notes
The early 2000s saw something of a renaissance in metal and hardcore bands; new acts cropped up left and right while pushing the music in progressive directions. Bury Your Dead stand out among their contemporaries as keepers of the traditionalist flame. The sheer ferocity and intensity of their attack is never diluted with experimentalism or studio pyrotechnics. The band is as tight and accomplished as any in the genre, and BEAUTY AND THE BREAKDOWN shows BYD honing their sound to a body-pummeling perfection. The fairy tale-like narrative included in the liner notes, and the corresponding song titles, give BEAUTY the faint whiff of a concept album, but the music is pure, unadulterated, beautifully executed metalcore.
Album Reviews
CMJ (p.24) - "BEAUTY AND THE BREAKDOWN bludgeons with vinegary vocals, and -- also like the title suggests -- brims with breakdowns..."
