I'd love some ultra fast crispy and blazing soloing that breathes the same air as the song, be it show-off if it has to, but soloing needs to come back if just to beat down other bands. As long as it serves the songs musicality. We don't need the RRF type "prove everyone I'm the most technically advanced player" type solos. They've never done a solo with both guitars and keyboard in the same song yet, that would just be wicked!!
 
It sounds as I anticipated, like HoB but a bit faster and purpleish shade. This one second is enough to refute any wild theories of going back to "old sounds." Well, it has energy, pace, it's got a rocking riff but still Bodom vibe.

Here's the lyric parts that I can see... I think it's a fast song cos there's so much lyrics.


Verse 1
? of a human ? crossing the line
? what is real, what is ? and what I feel?
Year after year I ? know where I am ?
Different ?
And it's waiting to ? all over again

Verse 2
?
Eyes empty through and through
Faceless ?
Like a ?
Your future is ?
Don't leave me ?
Nowhere to be found, forever lost
Making a break for it at any cost

Chorus
? kill me
?
of the line ?
goin down
? 'til I drown?
? gonna kill me

?
?
?
? thru the roof
? feeling so ?


I think the vocal clip Alexi screams "line" which appears in the verse1 and chorus.

Year after year I don't know where I am ?
Different ? with the same ? ?
And it's waiting to ? all over again

Verse 2
Bloodshot, black and blue
Eyes empty through and through
Faceless ..eary soul
Like a bottomless black hole
Your future is bleak my ? is ? (since everything rimes, it probably ends like alone)
Don't leave me ? ? leave me alone
Nowhere to be found, forever lost
Making a break for it at any cost

Chorus
? ? ?kill me
? put me ? ? me
? of the line, and ?
?'s goin down
? 'til I drown
? gonna kill me

? bulletproof
?
?
? thru the roof
? feeling so ?


Quick modification/additions to Joonas's work. At least that's what I see.
 
It's really sad how dead this forum is, despite many epic things happening lately. Discussion has dumbed down to some silly facebook one-liners I guess.
 
We don’t really have anything yet other than a 1 second sound clip and some lyrics. Once we start getting a bit more people will start coming back, there’s just nothing to go over right now other than speculation.
 
Well that's true, we're too easy and desperate to keep excited. Anticipation is good but it's also good that people don't get fussed without the band giving them something.

I just remember the Blooddrunk days when the band made it exciting for us to wait for the album. I think the band members would not stay quiet if they felt like they have something epic burning in their hands. I guess the thing is the standard is set so high for Bodom it's hard to be positively surprised when one's waiting for the best album ever. But what is not unrealistically high is to expect them to utilize their musical style and make songs with the elements that made them great in the first place... meaning more speed, more orchestral hits and more solo melodies etc when compared to IWC... but once again it boils down to creativity and I guess creativity comes when following intuition...

Then again, after the RRF strategy (best album we've done) and the Halo strategy (back to roots, FTR, HB), what could they even say to make us excited, or at least convinced?

I still check here everyday. It’s just bodom are so sh** at advertising new albums on social media. Other bands release weekly videos etc showing a lot of clips etc. Bodom ask us “what do you guys want to see” and all we get is a 1 second clip and some blurred lyrics. Not much to go off
 
The COBTV was the best promotion material from them. I understand that it might not be practical to have a guys filming 24/7 , but they could at least make an effort to give us a weekly update. Even if it's just talking without any song sample... Give us at least SOMETHING!
