What In The Hell Are You Kids Talkin' About???

 

[dRIFTWOOD]

and again...is this stuff any good? who's heard any of it? at least colin is producing..he's freakin' incredible! (carcass..heartwork!)

 

[snickers]

colin didnt produce it, he just mixed it.

as for the 8 songs I heard, I think it sound pretty damn good...it took some time for all the songs to sink in but its definitely better than their last 2.

the only problem I have with some of the songs are the vocal melodies but its minimal. the guitars sound great, the thick heavy crunch they had is back.

overall its a great return type album...cant wait to hear the other 2 songs
