Oh my god. I'm excited.
Oh my god. I'm excited.
But the band left the best for the last: closing song “When All is Lost” acts like a shorter version of the song “The Odyssey”. The epicness surrounding this song is undescriptible, the piano interlude during the first minute, the tempo changes, the riffs, and combined to what’s in in my opinion Russell best vocal performance ever, makes “When All is Lost” a very emotive listening and a very memorable experience. Once this track ends, it leaves the listener with a smile on the face, with just one word coming to his mind: wow!
That sure isn't a very professionally written review.
He sure hypes the album a lot though.
And that review is my sole opinion, some might agree, some might disagree.
no writing credits, as the source it's a digital promo. Here are the track lengths:
01. Iconoclast 10:51
02. The End Of Innocence 5:27
03. Dehumanized 6:47
04. Bastards Of The Machine 4:56
05. Heretic 6:24
06. Children Of A Faceless God 6:20
07. Electric Messiah 6:13
08. Prometheus (I Am Alive) 6:46
09. When All Is Lost 9:10
Man, I seriously can't wait any longer.. So you really like this more than The Odyssey? I am like you in that I really am not into Paradise Lost. I rather dislike it actually. If this album is as good as The Odyssey I am seriously going to go crazy. And you haven't even heard the 2 disk version : )
Amazing ><
Yes, I liked it more. I have been listening to this album since last wednesday when I got it, and should have listened to it nearly 20 times before writing the review, with 2 listens to all their catalog as well. And yes, I will purchase the 2 disk version. I am very curious about the 3 songs I am missing.
