Advantages: All the tracks are better then their older stuff
Disadvantages: You only get 13 tracks, it makes their older stuff look pale.

...in 2007, and they are still with them today. -------------The Tracks---------- Well, what you probably opened this review for, you want to know whether you should buy this CD or not, I say go for it anyway, even if you hate the music, because ' The Black Swan' is a movement that is against the discrimination of homosexual and negro people, which I find worth supporting. However, its great to have a good CD from somebody you support, so here goes. 1. "Choose Your Fate" - 3:34 ~ 9/10 First Track, starts with spoken text, like a radio broadcast. Brutaly broken, and the music backing the breakout is great, sounds quite different from the older SOTY, neverminding the vocals, that have not changed that much, which can be a plus or a minus, there are some heavier parts, which personally does really great in my taste.

Disadvantages: none really

...I'd never heard of this book before I read it, I had actually gone to the library to get Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell (a book I've herad a few people rave about), when I got there it had gone but they had this, his latest novel, as I was in a rush I just got it without actually reading what it was about.

When we first meet Jason he seems like any other 13 year old he's starting to fancy girl's and is desperate to be popular and liked by his peers.
