Would you guys mind PMing me, too? Or would someone mind uploading the songs to youtube, but unlisted, then sending the links? Can't get removed if it can't get flagged
Man, I couldn't be more pleased to hear that. What's your opinion on Say Never Look Back? That's the one I had the highest hopes for.
The keyboard/guitar bridge in Say Never Look Back is very nice. Knuckleduster (Remix) is the most bizarre song in their entire discography.
The guitar solo in Glass Houses is so free flowing and oldschool, wish Alexi developed the theme further, it kinda just ends abruptly.
I guess Hecate's Nightmare is gonna be the song I skip on this record, doesn't work for me at all. The riffs are too simple and repetitive and Jaska is doing this stupid 80's hair metal drum beat through the entire song, never changing the tempo.
I still think old Knuckleduster was better...and let me just say that IDontKnowWhatToWrite man...all these guys including me got old and grumpy...you are the real fan and don't let anyone or anything break you! It's good to see someone still excited as a teenager for the new album! Good luck with your daily life issues
Anyone have a link? Won’t have access to my computer for like 12 hours, will try to listen from my phone if it isn’t a .rar file.
Glass Houses starts so fucking pumped up but after 2:30 it just gets weird and boring and like they didn't know how to finish the song...and similar thing with Hecate's Nightmare...but maaan Kick In The Spleen is the real shit! That solo is oldschool fucking rampage
First impression of soon departed is it's a very strong track. The solo seemed unremarkable, and there are no leads, but it works well. Kind of like this road. It's very solid modern COB. I like it.
Can't tell whether this is sarcasm or not, but I'll consider it isn't. I wouldn't consider myself anymore of a fan than others here. The fact that we are on a deserted Bodom forum is already the proof that we are quite dedicated to this band. But I think that Bodom has never disappointed my musical tastes. Or actually, they did twice, with Prayer for the afflicted and Was It Worth It?. That's literally the only two songs in all of Bodom's discography that I can't listen to and enjoy. Point is, I discovered the band during their transition period (discovered them with Follow The Reaper album at the time they were about to release Are You Dead Yet?). I didn't know enough of the band at that time to have expectation regarding their musical directions, but I loved everything I heard, melodic, heavy, chugga-chugga, neo-classical, etc. And therefore, I've continued to like everything they've made. Included Relentless Reckless Forever, to the surprise of many "true fans". As for my excitement, well, it is that of a teenager when it comes to Bodom I still remember when I was waiting for Blooddrunk, Relentless Reckless Forever, Halo of Blood, I Worship Chaos and it was exactly the same feeling of excitement as I have now. Hasn't changed since I was 15
First impression of Glass Houses is I'm not sure. It's not sticking. Again, not enough lead guitar. I'm not sure the pre-chorus and chorus work. It's going to take a lot of listens to try and appreciate this track.
I like Hecate's Nightmare. It's groovy, got headbanging moments, good solo, and it's got that cheerful but also heavy sound. Thumbs up for Hecate's.
Man, I had very low expectations for kick in the spleen. I thought it would be a typical trash track, but I'm glad I was wrong. This song feels like HCDR, it's got ANGER for the first time since 2005.That interlude is fucking incredible. First time I've gotten the goosebump feel from a COB in a long time! This song can definitely be on HCDR EASILY!!! Wow!!! A real solo, too. SLAP MY ASS SIDEWAYS!!!
