I didn't even know they'd recorded a new album. Someone want to summarise the last 25 pages? Hows it sounding? Chugga chugga metal?

But for real, it's heavy, but it's not speed metal. There are no ballads, but there are slower and more uptempo songs. It's probably closest to Fortress than any of the other three albums, but there certainly are similarities to all of their prior works.

Both. It's got some brutal riffs and dynamic, pulled-back parts like "Bleed it Dry", as well as plenty of upbeat rockers like "Buried Alive".

I think he means he wants the album to sound like it was recorded with or on top of food that wasn't affected by herbicides and pesticides.
