BATTLE OF THE TRACK NUMBERS: TRACK 04
Re: BATTLE OF THE TRACK NUMBERS: TRACK 04
Although AHIG is one of my favourites on ABIII, Buried Alive kicks major ass and Burn It Down is amazing from beginning to end and one of my favourites on ODR, I have to vote Lover. I loved it from the first time I heard it and after hearing it live yesterday it's one of my favourite AB songs of all time. Such a powerful song.

Haha, not at all! Didn't want to sound arrogant. Just something that stood out to meFelipesh wrote:So I'm still on the first stepTimotheus wrote:That's funny. When it first came out I didn't really enjoy All Hope Is Gone that much, mostly because of the chorus. Now three years later it's my favourite song from AB III and its chorus is one of my favourite moments from that album.

All Hope is Gone is a quite nice song and I really love listining to it. It feels so calm yet dramatic.
Re: BATTLE OF THE TRACK NUMBERS: TRACK 04
Now I can't stop listening to Buried Alive. Save tomorooow..drumroll..riff. Fucking amazing.

Hell yeah. It defines heaviness without resorting to metal elements (gallops, double bass, etc).Arctic wrote:Buried Alive is way underrated here. That beginning solo, the riff, the bridge. One of ABs best songs.
I hate to say it, but I kind of agree. It's not the worst, but it's among the weakest. But again, even AB's weakest work is hella-strong.Felipesh wrote:The chorus of All Hope Is Gone is one of the worst of AB

Re: BATTLE OF THE TRACK NUMBERS: TRACK 04
Yeah I love the verses on AHIG, but the chorus doesn't do much for me. Verses and bridge are fantastic.

Re: BATTLE OF THE TRACK NUMBERS: TRACK 04
It took me some time to get into AHIG (the same happened with Ghosts), but for me it was easy to do so and I love every second of that song, including the chorus - but as always, preferences differ here. To me, Buried Alive has one of the weakest choruses AB have ever written. ^^Felipesh wrote:The chorus of All Hope Is Gone is one of the worst of AB
Re: BATTLE OF THE TRACK NUMBERS: TRACK 04
Buried Alive was much better in its original incarnation, lost much of its impact on me when they switched it around.
For all of the hope that it brings...
Re: BATTLE OF THE TRACK NUMBERS: TRACK 04
I've read a lot about these original incarnations now, how come so many people know them? Is there any possibility to listen to them? Have they ever been released?Ubik wrote:Buried Alive was much better in its original incarnation, lost much of its impact on me when they switched it around.
Re: BATTLE OF THE TRACK NUMBERS: TRACK 04
Only live versions:
Buried Alive - http://youtu.be/Ncpk2_6Fpb4
Come to Life - http://youtu.be/HJ8LvGqou8I
There's a Ties that Bind one as well but it's the same more or less as the final one.

Re: BATTLE OF THE TRACK NUMBERS: TRACK 04
Thank you! Sounds pretty interesting, especially the intro.
EDIT: Wow, the improvised Come to Life solo heavily changes the feeling of the whole song, but I like it!
EDIT²: WHAT THE BLOODY HELL! That solo is AMAZING! Probably the most groovey solo they EVER did - it's a shame that they didn't adopt it in the final version!

Agreed. The new intro is still pretty good with the solo, but the original intro was a lot cooler.Ubik wrote:Buried Alive was much better in its original incarnation, lost much of its impact on me when they switched it around.

I was not able to vote on the track 3 battle but BNS was my vote anyway. ![LOL :lol](./images/smilies/lol.gif)
Went for Burn It Down. Just recently that it did become one of my favorites!

Re: BATTLE OF THE TRACK NUMBERS: TRACK 04
Agreed on the original intro...it's 1,000x better. I know I may be the only one on this, but I actually really don't like Mark's guitar solo during the intro to Buried Alive, at all. There's something about it that just doesn't sit quite right with me, though I'm not sure what it is.Timotheus wrote:Agreed.

Re: BATTLE OF THE TRACK NUMBERS: TRACK 04
You could still keep that solo when it all kicks in anyway. Such a shame that intro went.
