I think that one out of tune bend is on purpose. That's too amateurish a mistake to get through otherwise. Guys who've played guitar for a year should be able to hear it and correct it if it were a mistake.
If you're speaking of some other bend, well, I don't have any problems with them. Never though Alexi to be lacking in any particular playing aspect.

Any particular differences, if any? Meaning, do you think there's any audible differences that are caused by Roope's departure?

what bends are there? I don't hear any
2:01 is the one I was talking about with the out of tune bend. There's a quick double (Not strings, but in succession) bend a bit later.

it might be responsible for the bland rhythm guitar. And given Roope's experience I bet he often came up with neat ideas for Alexi's leads.

From 1:58 to 2:05, some of its whammy bar and some of it is bending (most notable bend at 2:05).

ah beginning of the solo. 2:01 is fine, 2:02 then? Sounds like a classic bluesy bend into a lick, nothing wrong here

That's what I said above. No guitarist would miss that if it were a mistake.

Pretty cool song- one of my favorite choruses they've done in a long time. I like that they've changed tunings instead of drop C or D standard. It sounds like it's in B is that right?
I actually really like it. A lot sludgier and has kind of a marching tempo to it. Very different from anything they've done. Catchy chorus too. As for the solo, I think it fit the song perfectly. A minute and a half noodle session wouldn't fit.

The song is ok, the chorus is actually pretty epic, but the rest kind of "meh"m kinda want to hear the rest, but the chorus is pretty decent.

I don't understand the RRF comparisons. I can't really think of any other COB album to compare this to actually. If I heard it without vocals and the solo I dunno if I would guess it's COB. The preview of the next track is even more bizarre. Gonna be a totally standalone album from what I can tell.
I actually like the tone, though. It's brittle but I think that's point. It's kind of evil. Really don't have words to describe but I think it's cool.

The tempo and the main riff have the same vibe but to me it sounds a lot different (and better) as most RRF songs went into unexpected thrash riffing which I didn't think flow together that well.
I liked the melody throughout the verses and the solo fit; I think it could have used a second solo though.
I agree with people saying the song could probably benefit from being cut down a minute or so but I am honestly loving it. The atmosphere is absolutely fantastic. Sort of a campy horror feel in the best way. Gives me the vibe of kids telling 'lake bodom' themed stories to one other around a campfire.
