"30 PIECES OF SILVER" DIGITAL SINGLE ANNOUNCED

Alright, WIN!


I would say that the lyrics definitely have a nice, modern relevancy =P

If the rest of the songs on the full album are this awesome, I will be more than happy. There was definitely some uncontrollable headbanging going on at the final instrumental portion.


Only (minor) criticism is that, in the first verse, the drums somewhat overpower the other instrumentals.


Keep rocking guys!
 
Out of curiosity, have any other last.fm users have trouble with this song? I shows that I've been playing it, but my play count for it there is nil for some reason. :(
 
I made a quick video and uploaded it to Youtube:

Enjoy and remember to support the band :kickass:

While I understand a single is used to promote a new album, I think putting it on you tube should be a band/label decision.

I know what it's like to spend a lot of dough making a record only to have it given away free on the net.
 
Many people have discovered Theocracy and contacted me, asking where they can purchase the music, as a result of the videos I have. Also you can listen to the whole song for free, through services like Spotify, so this is really no different.

That being said though, if the band or label have any issues with these videos I will gladly take them down. :)
 
Listening to this song on my Zune HD...gets more awesome with every play! Definitely purchasing the album as soon as it is available!

That's cool, no problem man. I just know how hard bands work and how much money it costs to put out awesome music like this and I like to see artists get all they deserve. :headbang:

Personnaly, if the songs from the 2 albums of Theocracy weren't on Youtube, I would never have heard of Theocracy.
And I think it's a good way to promote the album, saying to your friends "Hey look at what the new album's going to be !!". A friend of mine already purchased it thanks to this vid.

PS : and I was thinking about something : why do not make a "Make a donation"/"Support the band" button on the official Website ? With a little sentence like "for us to make better albums FASTER" :lol:
 
Yeah, I usually listen to all the songs on an album on YouTube before buying the album. The samples/previews are just not sufficient for me to know that I want the whole album. If it wasn't for "leaks" on YouTube, I wouldn't have bought half of the music I own.
 
Is it possible to wear out an MP3 by playing it too much? If so, I am well on my way with this single. ;) Amazing.

Sounds like a great idea. If the members don't see it here I'll make sure they find out some way. I'll message them if they don't see this. :lol:
 
I'm trying to refrain from excessive listening, so I can still bare to listen to it with the album.

This is where I'm at. I don't want it to turn into On Eagles Wings for me, which I listened to hundreds of times before MoS came out (my mind doesn't even accept that it's a MoS song, and I still sometimes hit Skip when listening to MoS).

This time I'm going to wait and keep it in the context of the album. I've listened to it about 20 times and absolutely love it, so now I'm tabling it and waiting. Not easy, but worth, I think!

I think I'm just north of a dozen....BUT! The new Nightwish single is supposed to be out in 5 days. Something to keep me occupied, I think. :headbang:
