As We Let Go – Above the Clouds — Six Feet Under, 2009

This EP makes sense to be released by Six Feet Under and hence a member of Blacklisted. This is essentially a Japanese version of that band. Mind you there's nothing wrong with that, it just seems there is nothing to set them apart from that assessment either. I could see this band killing stages the world over with a plethora of two-step parts and interesting breakdowns to make everyone move. The cool thing that happens is in the last song with a really cool solo to wrap the song up and give it a dramatic ending. This is a great EP overall but there's nothing particularly new here, just something that's really cool being done very well.
