Weird... this video is bizzarre - but the Soilworker is in it, so I like the song better now. Somehow the Soilworker makes it all better...

Yeah I'm starting to like the song too. Speed's vocals are really top notch and the chorus is actually excellent. Really the only thing I don't like is the verses, although I do like the Jim Morrison style crooning that Speed pulls off there, I just don't like the guitars, bass, drums, or lack of keyboards there so much.
In general I wish this song was a bit more "lush" sounding, more keys and harmonies and stuff, but it's got just enough of that to keep me interested in the album. No matter what I will support them on this tour and buy the disc!
I actually liked the song the first time I heard it. They're certainly gone towards a more mellow pop metal sound on this song, but I hope the whole album isn't like this. The production is ok, but the guitar sound is the biggest problem for me. They just seem to get into the way of everything else and the whole picture becomes messy. The sound is too boxy & nasal and there are some really annoying "ringing" frequencies there in the mids that poke out of the mix.

Interesting. I think this is by far the best Soilwork song I have heard so far (have to admit I don't like anything I heard from them at all) ...
Kazrog: it's funny, I like the verses almost more than the chorus!

A Predator's Portrait, Chainheart Machine, for me. My ears always hurt (too much of a bad mix) afterward, though.

knows what you think.
Wow, that´s one of the silliest storylines for a music video I´ve ever seen! uke:
I waited........and waited........and waited......for the big endlol when the band plays together at the top of the mountain with all the endorsed heads and cabinets........but what happened?! NOTHING!
BULLSHIT!
oh well, the song?! hmmmmmm.......sounds like Soilwork to me..

Lol, is that a Patric Ullaeus video? The background where they play kinda looks like that.
The part where they change to the Gibson guitars is the most ridiculous one! As if he was using P90s on that song lol...

Yeah, I new I would get shit for that.
APP is my fav songwise, but the mix hurts. Not so much CHM. FNF has a weird "chimey" quality. Hard to listen to as well. The songs are brilliant, though. I would expect a very listenable cd this time around, since Stabbing was so bitchin.

I'm smelling a little of In Flames Syndrome rubbing off on them, Regardless I though the song was kinda cool, even though the guits were a tad muddified

Thats just how it is...
Im biased, as most know... but I think the song is fine.. I like it, dont love it...
The video, however, is fucking terrible. Worst I've seen since Lacuna Coil's FIRST vid for Heaven's a Lie... ugh.
But, last thing Speed told me about the album was that it was heavy...
I havent been privy to any pre release to confirm or deny, but, Ill take his word for what it is... and assume this to be the kind of wanker "hit" single.
We'll see?
And going back to ESP was a surprise, but, Im a big ESP and Gibson spaz myself, so... there's that.

Agreed, "As We Speak" is probably my favorite Soilwork song of all. This new "Exile" song is alright, but I hope that the rest of the album is more impressive. I don't even care about whether or not they fulfill a certain degree of thrash or metal or tempo or whatever, I just want it to be full of good songs with good riffs that were well thought out!

I've heard another song "The Pittsburgh Syndrome" - and it is heavy - similar to Steelbath Suicide and Chainheart Machine, but also very fresh for them in terms of speed and heaviness, with some cool melody and soloing in there too! Really cool song! I'm looking forward to this CD!
