While the previously mentioned songs either feel too empty or simply strange with their production, Face of the Earth stands out as the albumвЂ™s most memorable song, mixing the strong hooks in the chorus and an adequately padded arrangement to make something that feels much more satisfying. Face of the EarthвЂ™s place between these songs makes the early segment of the album feel much better.

The songs cover the range of post-hardcore styles, with only A Midwestern State of Emergency and Heaven, Hell and Purgatory feeling awkward on the album.

The more you listen to the album, the more it starts to feel like a normal Silverstein album. Rather than lead into something similarly quiet, itвЂ™s immediately followed up with A Midwestern State of Emergency, which instead sounds like classic Silverstein it feels a little empty and the vocal delivery isnвЂ™t entirely convincing, but it still serves its purpose. ItвЂ™s an interesting concept, made even more intriguing as the album opens with Toronto (abridged), which is approximately fifty seconds of ambient noise, acting as a short introduction to the album. I Am Alive in Everything I Touch continues this trend, with the album being split into four three track long chapters, each themed after a different region with each song being set in a different city in that region. It could be as simple as keeping every song under 2 minutes long as they did on Short Songs, or pairing songs to tell two-part stories as they did on This Is How the Wind Shifts. Silverstein albums usually have some kind of concept around them.
