NEW ALBUM Q42 017/Q1 2018

[<Arcane>]

Cancer.

That's what I thought... Shit. What kind of cancer? A friend of mine died last year because of pancreas cancer - 11 days after he got the diagnosis.

Back to the album... I listened to it again - great album. But it lacks again good solos. I don't know what happend to Alexi but why isn't he able to write good solos anymore? The last good solo (and propably one of the best he ever did) was the solo in Ugly but since RRF there's not a single one which I like.

Listening now. Just finished Kick in the spleen. I am speechless. Will come back later when I fight the right words. This might very well be my favorite album EVER.

 

[Christvirg]

Fantastic album. Really suprising that they went with those 3 singles as I feel those are some of the weaker songs. Might be my favorite COB album overall.

Another note- PLAY THESE LIVE. I hope they don’t settle for just the singles.

 

[BodomBlueMoonHC]

I had a great idea to put the old and new Knuckledusters together but I found out that the new one is exactly 1 bpm faster than the old version so they don't really sync up lol. Damn.

 

[Widdershins]

Would appreciate a link here, as well!

 

[Wild_One69]

If someone would be kind enough to pass link for me?

Okay, you guys make me excited for the record again. I literally don't have any time to even listen to the album until Saturday so I'll check it on Spotify then. But those claims about how good some of the songs are sure are interesting. Especially when you look at some of the names of the people saying this.

 

[ESA1996]

Soon Departed's chorus is the best thing they've released in, like, ever

All songs were pretty good (I skipped the singles though).

Original Knuckleduster was better than the new one.

Holy shit, what the hell happened to the Knuckleduster Remix

As a whole I'd say this is the best album since HCDR, with the possible exception of HOB. Should probably also give AYDY a listen to better compare stuff.

Correction for Hexed. It's a 10/10 and thereby to go head to head with ETID, NMF, Widdershins and SNBN

Check your PMs

What the fuck is the Remix???!!

This is so fucking random that I actually like it XD weirdest this ever.

 

[BodomBlueMoonHC]

When I first heard the remix I was like WTF? I thought it was just going to be a different arrangement, not a whole new genre entirely lol

 

[rj rl]

I would've liked Hexed more if the intro/verse riff didn't sound exactly like every Dark Tranquility song ever.

 

[rj rl]

And my favorite neo-classical bit of the album is actually not the riff in Hexed but the starting lick of the solo in Kick in The Spleen. That fucking rocks.

 

[NewHewkas]

I really dig the remix, wonder who did it, really sounds like a Quake 3 ost, maybe Sonic Mayhem?

I'm having some beer now and haven't heard any of it.

Mrs. Bodom said it was done by an American Industrial duo called Youth Code

 

[(__Joonas__)]

I would like to hear the new Knuckleduster. Then for the rest I can wait till I buy the CD.

 

[MadYarpen]

Some nice impressions here! But I'll wait till it is on spotify.

 

[<Arcane>]

The old version is better.
