8.) Let’s Pretend Like It’s 1910: The song begins with a hard drum beat. The drums and guitars really mix well. They overuse the screams a little bit here though. It sounds awesome when the screamer drops out in the intro and the guitars are jamming with drums. Out of nowhere the song goes into a massive breakdown. The best breakdowns are the ones that aren’t expected, and this one definitely is not expected. The drum fill leading into the breakdown is one of the best fills I’ve heard before. Having the band drop out and a fill with the toms is perfect. I’m still trying to get my drummer to play some drum beats like that that.

9.) To Be Specific: This song really deviates from the normal sound of Catherine. The first part of the song using an electronic drum beat and sounds like it may have been constructed on garage band or some other type of drum machine. The drums switch over to a true drum set but with some sort of effect that makes it sound like the drummer is playing in a bathroom. They make good use of effects on the vocals as well to make this song unique.

10.) Praise The Night Time: This last song on the album was a really good song to end on. Thank you for adding in a pick slide- I was looking for one of those! The bass sticks out much more in this song than in other songs. The contrast at the end was really effective. They don’t use a clean guitar in many of their songs and it was a good choice to throw a bridge with a clean sound at the end. I didn’t notice until now that they actually use the electronic drum sounds some more at the end of the song. The only thing I would have liked to hear was a buildup from the clean part to a huge breakdown at the end of the song. Oh well- props for being unique.
