This album is simply brilliant in my opinion! Canadian band Billy Talent have been forgotten about or overlooked by too many people and yet they have produced 2 of my favourite albums!

I would recommend giving either 'Billy Talent' (previous album) or 'Billy Talent II' (this album) a listen, because even if you try it and its not for you, its better than completely overlooking these 2 brilliant records.

If you enjoy the music of My Chemical Romance, Lostprophets, any punk such as The Ramones, or especially something such as Anti-Flag, then Billy Talent could very well be for you!

My personal favourite songs on this album are 'This Suffering', 'Perfect World' and 'Burn the Evidence',

In my ever over-opinionated mind, I have ordered the tracks on this album to show which songs I think are the strongest.
1 - This Suffering
2 - Burn The Evidence
3 - Perfect World
4 - Devil In A midnight Mass
5 - Covered in Cowardice
6- Pins and Needles
7 - Red Flag
8 - Sympathy
9 - Fallen Leaves
10 - Worker Bees
11 - Surrender
12 - In The Fall
13 - Where is the Line

So if you are new to Billy Talent I would recommend listening to these tracks to see what you are missing! In fact, there's only one song which I believe is weak on this album, and this is 'Where is the Line?' which is a fairly generic sounding song in my opinion which could have been left off the album.

This album is full of excellent songs and unique vocals, its definately worth at least a listen before dismissal! Brilliant album...and I am eagerly awaiting their next!
