If only, if only... 
AILD is probably my favorite metal band (I think I already mentioned that) and I love HTD and ATR, too. I haven't heard the new singer for HTD, though. Is he any good?

I was at HMV today and was gonna buy An Ocean Between Us (that's the new one I think), but I saw Beautiful Tragedy by In This Moment so I bought that instead. Perhaps next time I'm there I'll pick up AILD.

Pfft, you better return it. It is An Ocean Between Us and it will blow you away. Number three and nine are their best songs, in my opinion.

I agree, that album was beautiful. However, I think in AOBU, the music also sounds much better. In the first two albums (first one being Frailed Words Collapse), Clint never performed in studio with the band. He was added in. This is the first album that the bass/back up vocals were recorded in studio.
I like both of them and I'm glad Clint's departure isn't a huge change.

Well, it was last night, and I am exhausted, sore and half deaf. It was 100 times better than what I could have imagined, every band was amazing. Through The Eyes Of The Dead played first, followed by Haste The Day, then All That Remains and finally As I Lay Dying.
Haste the Day's new singer definitely fills in Jimmy's shoes well.
One word can sum up AILD's performance, and that word is flawless. I'm not sure how every concert goes, but the ones I have been to, a curtain or screen is lowered after each band while the next band sets up, with something playing on the screen. After All That Remains finished, the screen was lowered and Betty Boop cartoons started playing (Pink Panther cartoons were shown on the screen for the previous interbals). They played Tom Petty while AILD was having their equipment set up, which was nice. The other intervals had random music playing. Anyway, the lights were finally put out and the screen rolled up. Everyone was yelling at that point. Suddenly, Jordan (AILD's drummer) busted into a crazy drum solo, with a nice light show shining on him. Then, the rest of the band members seemed to appear out of nowhere and they started playing a random breakdown, which led into the beginning of Through Struggle. It was perfect.
They played a lot of songs from all three of their albums and I couldn't of asked for a better performance.
It was near impossible to hold my phone steady at any moment, but I was able to slip towards the back at times to try and take a clear picture. I have some videos, too, and I will put them up later.
Here's a few pictures...

Yeah HTD's new singer is great. At first he was a little shaky because they played all of the old stuff that Jimmy did. Steven's style is different from Jimmy's and HTD's newer stuff fits it perfectly.

They were awesome. They opened up with Walk On and closed with When Everything Falls.
