I saw the pink V guitar and i know the album has the word devil in it so i already know who they are trying to be like...
we are the nightmare was the first i had ever heard of them and i liked it, celebration of guilt was good too but this is just bad, guitar work is still good though.
The song is OK, not great or terrible really. The video is pretty lame, the lyrics are weak. If it's truly the direction they want to go in (and not influenced by greenbacks) then more power to them I suppose. Disappointing, but only a bit for me since I haven't really listened to/enjoyed Arsis since A Diamond for Disease. Fin.
Never liked Arsis. I think the vocals are horrible and their last few albums were such pointless wank with the weakest and most boring arrangements that I ever heard in any tech-death band, besides the horrible Beneath The Massacre maybe.
The ultra-fatiguing production on top of it makes this plastic crap basically unlistenable. IMHO of course.
So this lame attempt at making cock rock in a metal context is actually a step up, but they still suck big time, especially the vocalist.
That guitar sound...ugh. I need more pinch harmonics because the million that they already have in a 4 minute song just aren't enough. Lay off the Phrygian, too.
