THE GREAT COLD DISTANCE | New Album Talk HERE.

One should not judge the whole song on a edited song clip, but I felt somewhat let down by it. Too "standard" Katatonia and VE sounding. VE sounding isn't naturally a bad thing, but until now each now each Katatonia album has had its own distinct sound so...but then again, it's just one song.

But I love the promo pic and there definately can be found some old-Entombedish elements in it :D The cover art feels very similiar to Porcupine Tree's In Absentia cover. Oh well, maybe it's just the hand position :D

Anyone else fear the worst with "MY TWIN (OPIUM DUB)"?
 
It is a bit of a long wait isnt it?
The production is really good on the clip. And the guitar tones and effects sound awesome. GT8 perhaps?
 
About time!!! Kick-ass song! Can't wait for the single and the full length :Spin::Spin::Spin::Spin::Spin::Spin::Spin::Spin::Spin:

I thought that you -
That you would carry on
But now that I am gone
What else can withdraw (?)

You used to be like my twin
And all that's been
Was it all for nothing

Are you strong you're with him
Do what has graced you
[?!]

I think our love
I let it pass
It feels like fire
But it won't last

You used to be like my twin
And all that's been
Was it all for nothing

Are you strong when you're with him
What has placed you
[?!]

What is it coming to
I am alone to go on
You have lost
Noone has won

You used to be like my twin .... like my a-twin

Haha... It was the first thing that struck me when I checked katatonia.com this morning... Like "what the fuck.. did I come to some other band's page?"...
Kind of sad if they've removed it permanently.
 
I like the sample, soundwise/productionwise a great improvement from "Viva Emptiness", which didn't sound good i.m.o. I'm happy to hear some warmth and depth in the sound again.

Also the song "My Twin" sounds very promising, can't wait to hear the whole album!
 
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!! ITS FINALLY HERE!!!!

As soon as I heard the track, I started to pick out each individual piece, as you do with a first listen. didnt know what to make of it.

Listened to it a second time as a complete song, and.... what can i say! Katatonia are the masters of emotion! this song fucking rules!!!!

Absolutely dying for the new album. gonna be a long 3 months...

IF YOU FIND SOMETHING SEND ME SOMETHING !!!!!!!!
 
I didn´t want to download the clip ...but I couldn´t resist the tentation!

This confirms that KATATONIA IS THE BEST BAND ON THE PLANET:)

It met and got over my expectations!
Fucking brillian, fantastic song! Hope the whole album will be so great!

And I guessed the right colours, exactely as I had in my mind, especially the cover of the single, incredible how I was imagining a similar vision...

Only a little bit disappointed by the logo..I was so affectionated to the Kata logo, even if it was a font as well, but now it seems it has lost kind of its "personality", it´s just an anonymous simple katatonia...
Does it mean that something is changing?

It would be interesting to hear from the band why this choice.
The band pic rules, Jonas looks quite "evil", hehe, great:)

In any case now I have to begin sparing money to see them at least 10 times this year....
oh why is this band so great? adn why do we have to wait so long for the album´s release!
