For those who seek to listen to the previews, you can find them on youtube. At least at this very moment. The great beyond, Nothing but a name and Love can only heal are the ones that stood out the most for me.

They're still on iTunes for me. Closed the window by now, so it's not because of that.

The Great Beyond sounds the most like an AB song, with the typical 6/8 rhythm and 'epic' feeling. I think it will be a fan favorite because of that. But I really appreciate how different all these songs sound from all the other projects. It's not AB-lite or anything.

Yeah I totally agree with you. Love can only heal sounds so beautiful too.

Are they still on YouTube for you? I've been looking everyday since the previews dropped, and never have found anything.

Yeah it’s weird cause they are on YouTube for me and it’s not blocked. The weird thing is that when I send the video link to friends living in another country than me (I live in Switzerland ) , the video is blocked for them ...

Are your friends from the US? Maybe that's why they aren't showing up when I search for them.

I just listened to Haunted By Design, I liked the solo the most from the song, but the other thing that stood out was parts of the song when Myles sang in softer vocals.

Sounds like a very eerie sounding song when it came to the lyrics. Of course, it's really good. It's sounds very southern rock to me and he did use a banjo as the rhythm part during the solo . It had a Big Wreck feel to it. I like it.

Southern, kind of folk rock, but with MK’s lower register...

Sounds like a guitar solo you'd hear on a country single in 2018.

I'm really pleased with this song. Based on the previews this one stood out to me the least (together with Blind Faith), but I really like the full version of it. Very Americana, which might put off some AB fans, but I love it.

Love the arrangement and the mix. Great vocal performance and lyrics. Tasteful solo. I wasn't instantly in love with Year of the Tiger (based on the previews, that one might end up as my least favorite song on the album), but I hold this song in very high regards.
