3.5/5

While it's very easy to assume that the sound of Since October copies other bands in the genre, what makes this band unique is their honest and passionate lyrics. It was evident on their debut album and is still evident here on their sophomore effort, Life, Scars, Apologies. The album manages to maintain a good blend of hard rock songs and slower ballad songs. Lyrically, the album deals with the band member's lives and situations they experienced. It's very personal and open and I really like it.
The cover of Alice In Chains' "Don't Follow" was probably not the best way to close out the album. It's not bad but it just feels unnecessary.
Aside from that, Life, Scars, Apologies is a good rock album. While it may sound the same as other bands like Decyfer Down, what makes this album stand out is its open and honest lyrics. View All Music And Book Reviews By username2 | View username2's Profile
