I'll be glad to take this review. --Niwi3 (talk) 20:13, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

This looks like very impressive work for an "indie" record: well-written, well-focused, and proofread. There may be a few issues though:

• According to the album article style guide, sections that are prose-heavy should be at the beginning and sections that are lists or tables (such as track listing) should be at the end. So I suggest to move the track listing section after the reception.

It seems that this was fixed by J Milburn. --Niwi3 (talk) 21:34, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

• In the lead, "The album was released on January 29, 2013, through the record label Ipecac Recordings." Do you really need the second comma? Same for the release section.
• I'm curious why you did not include the genre in the infobox. Not a major issue though.
• In the release section, Billboard 200 should be italicized as Billboard 200.

Overall, very good article. If you have any questions on these points, or if you think I'm being unreasonable, please ask. Thank you. --Niwi3 (talk) 20:58, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

It seems that Grapple X has been inactive since June 2013, so I'm going to fix these minor issues myself and pass the nomination. --Niwi3 (talk) 13:07, 22 August 2013 (UTC)
