Thanks for the recap! You got me exited! :-D

Usually Marks favs are pretty aligned with mine. Not sure about Myles’ though haha...

Have fun everyone attending the listening party! :-)

^ I have the exact same thing. :-) TOS is my jam, the rest I don’t care for - intro of SMAL is fire though.

Yeah I think it's the lower frequencies. I can hear the bass guitar really well, which is awesome, but I think the kick drum and the guitar chugs are kind of getting in the way. Not sure, but to me the sound get's uncomfortable usually when the drums and chugs kick in - like at 0:09 of 'In The Deep'...

Well, no I don't necessarily think so. Although you could argue it can be a bit boring when it's too overused. But it's easier to accidentally copy, which was the point I think.

If you're gonna write a riff that generic and obvious, of course it's going to get "stolen". This, so much this. :-) Can be applied to a lot of these lawsuits. Haha the Tool Sheeran colab should really be a thing. Edit; just listened to that new Sheeran (and the rest) song, pretty cool - ...

That's cool man! Have they ever performed in Russia?

... Then the more complex, epic-ier music. Obviously, Blackbird is the masterpiece. But others that reach that category in my opinion were SttV, WDTTW, Achilles, Calm the Fire, Fortress, TLH, and TSOF. Just balls to the wall, complete changes in direction, and usually topped off with an awesome bri...

Wow, a Falling In Reverse comparison never thought that would happen here haha!
Listened to TtC a few times now and still like it. I would’ve changed a few things about the song but it made me want to pick up the guitar so that’s a good thing.

I like what I’m hearing! Cool and unique riff. Chorus needs to grow on me. And I wish the first part of the bridge would repeat, love those eastern melodies that were thrown in.
And the outro was cool too haha.

Indeed. Sounds like a soft intro/beginning, bring on tomorrow! :-)

Whats fascinating is Elvis did the last Tremonti,Slash and Myles album as far as im aware no issues with the mixing. Why is it an issue for AB thats weird. Just came back from work where in my car i have an AB mixed Cd that plays all their albums. To my ears going from Fortress to TLH sounds the sa...

We like to blame Elvis, but I don’t think he’s the only one to blame if you don’t like how the album sounds. It’s very possible to have a better sounding album and keep all the layering and ‘producer input’. I think it has to do with everything, from the gear used all the way to mastering. I do thin...

Wouldn't You Rather sounds x1000 times better on acoustic I liked that I could actually hear the riff well. The song grew on me watching that acoustic performance haha. You couldnt hear the riff before ? I could, but not as detailed as I could now. But I guess that will always be the case when you ...

Lacks uptempo songs? I don’t agree at all, Slipknot always had different pacing - although maybe a bit less on ST/Iowa. But the most important thing is that I enjoy the songs far more than anything since Vol.3, no matter the tempo. :-)

We Are Not Your Kind - Slipknot
8.5/10

Like people said; probably CoA, Blackbird or Isolation.

Well that’s promising. :-)

Still weird that such a thing can happen.
