I don't suppose I'll turn my wagon after a couple years and start missing something about RRF. Yes Blooddrunk was bad, but AT LEAST it still sounded dark and even mythical in some sections of some songs. There weren't many good riffs on the album, so it was very lacking in that department. But now after the gay, atmosphere less thrash riffing of RRF even the darkish riffing of Blooddrunk sounds good at times, even tho it's not musically interesting. There always were some very catchy songs like Hellhounds, ODYWC, and almost every song had some interesting parts. I've even started liking Roadkill Morning more. But when you were expecting something like the old days, naturally it was a disappointment.
RRF has good parts to it in almost every song, if I had to listen to one of its songs today it would probably be CotN. Usually the best Bodom songs never lose their touch, but I just don't care about the better songs on that album anymore. The best thing about the album was the orchestral hit that the band added later on for the SKO intro for live purposes. The album sounds less dark so maybe some nutbag thought it was some sort of return to the roots, but that's the most ridicilous thing I've ever heard. It just stopped being dark. RRF is like Blooddrunk but sounds more boring and has less interesting parts in it. I really don't care if it's got more riffing and stuff that's supposed to be more tricky to play but sounds boring as hell.
I'm very pumped up for this new album and I think it may be among my top three.
