COB start writing new album
- Thread starter sleeper666
- Start date
Yeah, a little bit more, but that sounds like an Radio Rip
radio rip was maybe with better quality
Hahaa yeah, that sounds promising. This clip doesn't tell the full picture yet, but there's no more that gay American sound. I like the melodic shouts too. I never liked this melody thing at the start tho, cos it's nothing special. Of course I personally like the song Halo of Blood very much. There's gonna be some diversity on the album.
There's a lot more atmosphere in transference than in what we've seen after HCDR....I think this will be their best album since are you dead yet

This album is very interesting. It's hard to believe Alexi finally managed (from what I've heard) to tone down the rhythm complexity back to simple but effective riffing. Something specifically mentioned before : )
The sound so far is so distinct, and I don't want to start making conclusions with so little samples, but it's definitely unique. If you have to give it a color it's not blue or green... or even red. This is what I'm hearing:
Rhythm: Old School.
Lead: Modern (so far). The first Transference sample sounded like an AYDY melody, especially with the keyboard sound attached. HOB solos sound straight out of RRF or AYDY.
Keyboards: Mixed. A lot of distinct, loud, and sharp keyboard of modern COB. But at the same time there is the mellow keyboard from FTR that helped quite a lot in that atmospheric sound.
Vocals: It's 34 year old Alexi trying to sound young and angry again. It's got the layering thing going on again.
Will this be COB's black album?? Purple?

I like the Deadnight Warrior'ish keyboards in the verses, it's catchy as fuck, the drum fills should sound epic too.
Imagine if they had another song like SNBN on this album... or intensely melodic songs in general. It's good Alexi has taken the approach to make simpler but catchier riffing.

That's got a lot to do with it. The lyrics are no more about alcohol, I suppose. Just as I could see coming: when Alexi has to abandon his addiction to alcohol, he will look back to his life in nostalgy and find what was truly important, and he'll remember the original purpose of COB's music.
I agree with Joonas. I think he had a LOOONG party time since AYDY, now he just woke up.. "dafuq I am doing?" and here it comes HOB...ok, RRF is not as good as HCDR, but after BD and AYDY, RRF gave me some light of hope
ok, RRF was not their best, but absolutely better than AYDY and blooddrunk I think....more melodic parts...just my opinion....from what I've heard from interviews and Halo Of Blood (the radio rip) I think it will be much better than RRF, BD and AYDY
Yeah, and this one in a certain way reminds me SW....maybe black metal influence, but not the classical riffs LOL
