This War Is Ours
This War Is Ours is the second album by American rock band Escape the Fate. It is the first Escape the Fate album to feature former Blessthefall singer Craig Mabbitt on vocals. The album received mixed reviews from critics. It was produced by John Feldmann, and released on October 21, 2008, through Epitaph Records.
Some of Mabbitt's vocal melodies draw influence from R&B. There is also screaming on the album, drawing influence from hardcore punk. New Noise Magazine considers the album's style post-hardcore.
The album debuted at No. 35 on the Billboard 200, selling 13,000 copies in the first week of its release.
Starting on September 2, 2008, fans of Escape the Fate went to a special page on Buzznet to help unlock "the first track" off of This War Is Ours. Once the page had 50,000 viewers at the same time, the new song was then released to play and download for free. In order for a user's "page view" to be considered a contribution to the counter, the page had to remain open and active. Other sites could be used through different tabs or new windows, as long as the Buzznet page stayed open. Because this was a difficult task, fans were asked to "tell everyone [they] know to come to [the] page" in an attempt to reach 50,000 views as fast as possible. About 30 hours after the project started, the new song titled "The Flood" was unlocked and was also available for free download to anyone (whether they participated or not).
On October 1, 2008, the band released "This War Is Ours (The Guillotine II)" the (sequel to "The Guillotine" from the band's previous studio album, Dying Is Your Latest Fashion) for download. It served as the album's fourth single, with a music video being shot in Santa Ana, California, in January 2010.
This War Is Ours received positive reviews from critics. Tom Forget of AllMusic gave the album three and a half stars.
In an interview with Max and Craig, they stated that they would re-release This War Is Ours with a bonus disc with many different features not seen before.
The CD includes two new songs, "Bad Blood" and "Behind the Mask", an acoustic version of "Harder Than You Know", and a remix called "This War Is Mine" by Shawn Crahan of Slipknot. It also comes with a DVD that features the music videos to "The Flood", "Something", "10 Miles Wide", and "This War Is Ours (The Guillotine II)". It also comes with a world tour documentary and a behind the music feature. The deluxe edition was released on April 27, 2010.
