[kittybeast]

Just curious as to how you all are enjoying GODSPEED. I know that a lot of great comments have been coming through on other threads and in the PP forum but of course for me there can never be enough SYMPHORCE talk :Spin:

Everlasting Life -- 8
No Shelter -- 7
Nowhere -- 9
Haunting -- 7
Black Water -- 10
Wounds Will Last Within -- 8
Your Cold Embrace -- 7
Without A Trace -- 6.5
The Mirrored Room -- 9.99999
Crawling Walls For You -- 10

The solo on Crawling is reminiscent of the power of the solo on Tesla's Love Song.

Black Water kicks my ass every time I listen to it.

Nowhere's hook has got me hooked. That track dances in my head all day long. People look at you funny when you accidently let "WHY!" slip out loud. Trust me on that. Yes, it's happened. Fortunately it was only my wife.

I haven't stopped playing the disc front to back since I got it.

Forsight and Crawling bookend the disc perfectly, IMO.

I still need some time to fully rate the tracks! .... Though Everlasting life ranks very high with me right now I will post more accurate impressions in a week or so

 

[kittybeast]

intro - I always enjoy a mellow acoustic riff

Everlasting Life- 7 good opener not too much too soon, I like the ending

No Shelter-6 i'm impartial to this one sometimes I'm into it..sometimes not

Nowhere- 10 excellent first release choice loving it! pssst Wheez..... WHY!

Haunting- 8 :Shedevil:

Black Water - 10 floored absofuckinlutely floored


Wounds will last within - 9 I have a new fave drummer....... Tag Sascha you're It!! Neckbreaking, great 'kin mosh tune! :hotjump:

Your Cold Embrace- 8 really enjoy the effects used on guitars, a deep and brooding Andy

Without a Trace- 7 song really has a lot going on it's growing on me

The Mirrored Room- 9 luuuuuuv the slide kickass opening. are those whales in the background?!?! or a guitar effect? awesome!

Crawling walls for you - 10 a girls got to have her ballads

As usual you guys have kicked my ass again! Going into the top 3 for sure! Cede and Markus work so 'kin great together I really enjoy the effects used and diff stylings of shredding and solo's! Sascha.........dude... you just amaze me! You and the Ice Monster are gonna make me snap my neck one day! Andy's sounding great! but of course!!! Whew! I am in awe of your stage presence....
You guys are all Top Notch gentleman!

A very solid listen from start to finish. Well put together, packaged, produced, quality all great!

I was a bit disappointed not to hear any background vocals from the other guys and would have like to hear a bit of harmonizing vox or chorus. A very versitle listen as not one track on there could really describe your sound! You all give your nuances to the music and make it your own. Don't ever stop!!

Haven't rated each track, but my favorite song at the moment is Wounds Will Last Within.

The stereo is broken in my jeep, so I can't play it for her on the way to pre-school / work. She had some good air guitar work going last night though - I'll have to play that song and see how much she improves!

Forsight
Everlasting Life - 10
No Shelter - 9
Nowhere - 8 ... Tis my least Favorite ... yeah its catchy ... but just not my favorite
Haunting - 10
Black Water - 10 ... I love how Haunting goes into Black Water
Wounds Will Last Within - 10 .. ASSKICKER!!! Love this song!
Your Cold Embrace - 8
Without A Trace - 10 ... Love that Erie little Guitar thing in the Chorus
The Mirrored Room - 8 ... That slide thing irratetes the shit out of me Great song otherwise
Crawling Walls For You - 10 ... I absolutely Love A.B. Frank Ballads!!! What a voice! so much emotion ... almost enough to bring a tear to a tough guys eye seriously though its a great lil tune!

All in all I love this album!!! I do like Twice Second abit better ... but thats prolly because it was my first Symphorce album ... I'm still not absolutely in Love with "Nowhere" There is just something about it that doesnt do it for me ... Great Chorus though! "Tell me Why" "WHY!".... Big Congrats to all the guys for making a great album! ... There! No C&B for Me!


EDIT: Changed my Ranking for "Nowhere" ... Just listenined to it and Realised I really like it hahaha Figures!

 

[kittybeast]

great rating! you don't like the slide guitar? eh, to each his own. It's a really, really, really great album! Now I want to hear more tracks from it LIVE!

 

[Wheezer]

There! No C&B for Me!

It's about time! And that C&B discussion was making me nervous. I don't even know what it is but it doesn't sound enjoyable.
