New Symphony X song - Nevermore

Yea I feel like the vocals are really weird on this one. Like he can't project like he used to? There's something missing from his performance.

Rest of the band and the mix sounds FAN-FUCKING-TASTIC!
 
I don't think his performance is the problem, it's just this specific song that has some weird vocal arrangements. That's the impression I get, but we will find out when the whole album is released.
 
Awesome production, killer riffs and playing, and the vocals *sound* good, but the vocal melodies just aren't as catchy as older tunes.
 
Vocals are fantastic on that one. I've listened to Nevermore a few more times as well. It's definitely just a different route for him melodically. He's still got the pipes thankfully!

Stoked to hear the whole record! That song almost sounds a little radio rock. But still great.
 
I listened to the album now like 10 times or so and I really dig the hole thing. And oh boy, those Romeo Solos.... <3
