Versaemerge - Fixed at Zero [2010]

This is Versaemerge's debut full length album, three Ep's, a few member changes, and a couple of genres Versa has finally given its growing fanbase a full length that they have wanted for so long. Versaemerge has had to live with the perception of being the band that Fueld by Ramen signed to try and cash in on the Paramore craze. So what would they do to stand out from the rest of the pop-punk bands on they're label? They went completely left and they dont sound like any other band on their label. I think Versaemerge's sound is original and creative in their genre, but the question is does anyone like it? I was a fan of this band when they were making post-hardcore music, but that was then and this is now. The sound this band has come into has either a love it or hate it perception. Musically each song is interesting and well put together, you can tell the band put everything they had into the record. The album as a whole blends together and can be boring at times, this isn't the most high energy record that we've seen from this band. This is a good record but how much you enjoy it will depend on if you like the style the band has adopted.
