The Longest Year MCD - Page 4

rakytyka · March 3rd, 2010, 09:40 AM

It is not the best video ever, but not bad either. I like it very much. I think Anders and Daniel should appear too, but still. It's a good one.

KittyKatatonia · March 3rd, 2010, 11:28 AM

Not bad...it's definitely way better than that ridiculously awful Day and Then the Shade video.

daimonion · March 3rd, 2010, 12:03 PM

What i LOVE about this, is that they are really going for the Katatonia feeling this time around. Great!

But it looks amateurish and a little random/rushed. Thumbs up still.

Clayman77 · March 4th, 2010, 12:21 PM

Great video. I love it. Much more Katatonia feeling than the awful 'Day and then the Shade' video.

anyone got the package "Longest Year MCD" + T-shirt, currently on sale in the merch section? Would like to know the quality of the tee

Lisra · March 7th, 2010, 06:16 AM

They look very similar to the "Blood girl" shirts they are selling on tour which look really good. did buy a different one though, so I can only tell from eyesight.

I ordered EP + T-shirt bundle, but obviosly hasn't gotten it yet, coz they'll ship those only after Longest Year EP is released on 15th.

Coma323 · March 7th, 2010, 02:59 PM

I want that shirt but not for $37

This made me laugh hahah.

The longest year, is I am assuming then. Jonas looking for Anders for the last year?

FlawedCoil82 · March 13th, 2010, 03:24 AM

I am not sure if it has been posted yet but this site has a clip of (what I am guessing) is the chorus to "Sold Heart". Definitely not bad.

Nightmare_Heaven · March 13th, 2010, 03:30 PM

Day and Then the Shade remix is good...really like the way it starts and picks up, i think i prefer it to the original song actually...Sold Heart is nice too, not quite on the level on Unfurl but they need more time to sink in

Wildhoney · March 13th, 2010, 05:34 PM

The new video in fact is a lil' bit amateurish, but I definetely prefer this one to the previous one for 'Day and then the shade'. All that red of fire, sparks and the black, reminds me of the front-cover for ''Discouraged ones''. Well, actually I'm not so mad about musical videoclips.

'Sold heart' sounds good but nothing if compared to those few seconds of 'The longest year' when I heard it months ago from the teaser. This song is really great and I'm glad they're promoting it.

the mourner13 · March 14th, 2010, 05:03 PM

I just listened to Sold Heart and I gotta say it ownz all NITND songs... Great song!

i aint play this · March 14th, 2010, 09:13 PM

I KNEW someone would say that this song is better than any song on the album just because it's a b-side. Was just a matter of time really.

Brave.Archangel · March 14th, 2010, 09:22 PM

True that!!!

I have to say that Sold Heart is NOT superior to many of the NitND songs. That is really UNCOOL of me to think, I know, cuz it's a B-side so therefore it's cooler

BlueSky · March 14th, 2010, 11:39 PM

I'd say it's definitely among the best from the NitND period.

Coma323 · March 15th, 2010, 12:52 AM

can't wait for this ep to arrive

FlawedCoil82 · March 15th, 2010, 02:33 AM

Well I believe it's pretty much impossible for Katatonia to create a song that I don't like since TGCD. Having said that though, I am not too overly crazy for "Sold Heart". I certainly like it better than any of their older stuff simply because the vocals are better. If I had to rank it with the other songs from NITND though, I'd rank it as my 3rd least favorite song (behind "Nephilim" and the second half of "Departer"). I wonder if this is "the 13th song" that they originally said they recorded for NITND? I wouldn't be surprised if it was since it follows the same "no more than 2 choruses per song" pattern that every other song on NITND uses. Nonetheless, I added "Sold Heart" to the rest of the songs on a cd-r (any future songs released before the next album will also be added to it) so now my original copy of NITND will collect dust from here on out.

sigh.

Well, that is just a matter of TASTE actually. I was always willing to hear an album in the vein of Unfurl from Katatonia. Sold Heart is really in the vein of Unfurl and I really really liked it. I don't care if it's a B-side or not, that is what I expect from Katatonia and for me it really is better than any album song... Live with it.

daimonion · March 15th, 2010, 07:50 AM

Sold heart kinda sounds like newer Anathema. It was nice, but understandebly a b-side, both because of the style and quality.

KittyKatatonia · March 15th, 2010, 10:06 AM

Finally heard Sold Heart and it's utterly amazing, as good as anything on the new album.

I also found that it fits very well into Night is the New Day if you put the song after Ashen and before Departer on a CDR.
