I agree, there are too many bands that overstretch their songs over that magical 5min mark for no reason (I call this the Steve Harris syndrome
). But take Falconer's Northwind for example, I think all the songs are under 5 minutes and it has a lot better flow to it than their previous albums. Pharaoh knows how to write an epic (By The Night Sky, duh...) for sure, I'm not saying that. Just good to know that the skill of writing effective and powerful 3-4 min songs is appreciated by other people as well.Oh yeah, the new song is killer! 4 weeks to KIT!

According to Matt Johnsen the new album is available at KIT, and as a limited edition digipak with a patch to boot. Sounds kickass.
As you maybe know, the limited edition of the album (digipack, only 500 items pressed!) is already available for pre-order.

I got this disc, it's so average...
The singer is the best part of the recording...
Lyrically they need a lot of work...

Mine arrived today but I've yet to give it a proper listen. Typical nice digipak and the patch is also cool, just don't know where to put it though (not a vest guy
).

Fuck! I wish I would have known this a couple of week ago...
I gave it to one of my wife's co-workers who is starving for metal...

Mierda, alright that happens. I'm waiting for The End to have it available.
I just listened to the album for the first time.
Too early for conclusions, but the first impression is that the new songs are indeed shorter and catchier. It seems to be a very good album.

Well I managed to download the promo. And I can say is a strong, solid effort but not as great as the previous album. Undoubtedly fans of the band will like it and I think most metalheads will reckon the value of the album. I will buy it as soon as it becomes available.
I haven´t heard the new Pharaoh album but yesterday at Keep It True they did a very good show and the new sounded quite well. I bought the new album and I hope it will be as good as the others.
Yes, I agree with Wyvern that it doesn't seem to be better than the "Longest Night". But it is a very good effort.

Here's the setlist from KIT:
After The Fire
I Am The Hammer
No Remains
By The Night Sky
Solar Flight
Telepath
Now Is The Time
Up The Gates
Good show as Marco said! Tim Aymar did have some problems, especially during By The Night Sky when he skipped a few verses entirely. I don't know if he just forgot the lyrics or got winded or what. Don't want to blow this out of proportion really because he sounded fine overall and the show was indeed very good.
On the way to KIT and back I had a lot of time to listen to the new Pharaoh disc and it is definitely good stuff. Shorter and catchier yes, still it doesn't really have that instant-hitting ultra hit like By The Night Sky. Takes a lot of listens but it's worth it. I'd rate it just a tad below Longest Night at this point. Still it's about as good as US-metal gets these days.

I agree totally.
I was always curious how Pharaoh would perform this song live, because it's almost impossible all the vocals to be done from one person. I think that must be the problem, as I learnt from my com-patriots who attended the festival that Tim was very-very good.
