This is and will always be a band that I like a bit but not too much. Why? Oli Sykes' screaming sounds fucking dreadful. It sounds like screaming with no actual technique whatsoever, and it's just not normal for the human nature to stand listening to it for a whole album.
I really dig his high-pitched screams and lows though, I would love to pull that off myself. I also know a lot of bands that have vocalists screaming mid-pitch and they sound pretty good, but Sykes just doesn't.
This is the kind of band I'd want to see live, it's pretty intense. Even though Oli Sykes' screams sound even worse live.
I haven't listened to the new album too much, but I've listened a few tracks and haven't been able to make up my mind. There are some cool new ideas and there are some new lame ideas. I didn't like "It Never Ends" too much.
Apart from the terrible midrange whining noise coming from Oli, this album/production is very listenable.
That effect on Crucify Me with the chick singer/s, is that autotune triggered by MIDI to get that quick change in notes? Would love to try that sometime. Any here ever done something like that? I haven't figured out how to sent autotune to MIDI yet, but i'm sure there is a tutorial somewhere.

Bounce in place with autotune and all processing in tact...
I laughed at this for about 10 seconds before I realized it wasn't supposed to be a joke.
I only use MIDI, i think it sounds pretty good.
And once again Oli's lyrics read like philosophy for 4 year olds.
