not sure if it's been mentioned yet, but you can download a free mp3 of "Eye Of the Storm" at this location (signup required): http://community.hottopic.com/inmusic/bullet_download.asp
A free mp3 of it has been available for awhile...check the album page on Wikipedia. May get a lot of flack for it, but i'm getting hooked on both songs definitely. It ain't The Poison by any stretch, but at least it's awesome music.
Yeah. I hated "Scream Aim Fire" when I first heard it. Now I love it. I had it on repeat this morning. I love the Dragonforce sounds in the solo too.
well you too, lol. I just saw it on theprp.com so I thought it was new as far as the songs go, definitely isn't like The Poison, but I agree, I do like the song so far.
also, check out: http://www.columbia.co.uk/mediaplayer/signup/CA4JGOEYKSDIP6ND/ you can preview 5 songs from the new album. from what I heard, it really sounds like it's going to be a great follow up to the poison, IMO.
I've got some mixed feelings after hearing the previews. I've got to hear full-length songs before I go making any more judgments about this album. Some of the songs had a lot of promise while others are just "meh" at the moment.
the vox on "eye of the storm" is, yes, a little disappointing. even the screaming isn't up to the standard of "the poison". the solo is alright, though, i like it.
Is it just me, or does it sound like the vocalist is trying to emulate Dave Mustaine's voice? I thought this after listening to the title track. So we've got Matt Heafy trying to sound like James Hetfield, and now this guy.
I honestly don't know why someone would want to sound like Mustaine. He has a rough quality to his voice but there are god knows how many better vocalists you can aspire to be like.
