""Dying to Live" is an example of how well it works if you blend the groovy brutality of Pantera with the technicality of Dream Theater, Fates Warning and Psychotic Waltz.
The musical style on this album is quite unique without trying to hide its influences. Gone are the Death Metal features that characterized "Excursion Demise" apart from tritonal patterns here and there, but the brutality remains.
"Dying to Live" is recommendable to any metal fan, and one of the best releases within the era of early modern metal - displaying both finesse and groove."
