Alternative PressSing The Sorrow soars with the kind of melodies hit singles are made of, yet it somehow persists with AFI's esoteric darkness. [Apr 2003, p.69]
-
A well-crafted mix of hardcore bluster, determined melody and anthemic grandness that boasts depth and texture rarely heard from the Warped Tour ilk.
-
Q MagazineIt's terrifically exciting stuff. [Apr 2003, p.101]
-
Just when the strings, piano, and rainstorm effects threaten to turn Sing the Sorrow into a My Dying Bride album, there is a burst of hardcore like "Dancing Through Sunday" to recall California pioneers of the genre like Dead Kennedys or SST transplants Husker Du.
-
Longtime fans might take it like a kick to the head, but this band is clearly moving toward bigger things.
-
Sing the Sorrow is not exactly a concept album, but it does have a singleness of dark purpose that builds in momentum as the disc progresses.
-
Entertainment WeeklyThe songs combine the most pretentious and overworked elements of their influences. [21 Mar 2003, p.112]
