Been a huge fan of them since like 2002 right after New American Gospel came out. LoG pretty much got me into more extreme metal. Digging this new track more than most of the past few albums. I agree the vocal phrasing is a bit odd. I'll have to listen again on monitors for the stereo image thing, didn't quite notice it last time I listened. Palaces will always be my favorite LoG album though.
I'm glad they've still got the classic LoG snare thing happening without too much annoying ring.
