jeromium Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Count me in. It's not bad, neither frustrating, even with the fact that I wasn't expecting much from it. It just feels (like most post-reunion albums) like it lacks real intensity although you can feel the commitment to bring something decent to the table. And intensity and originality represented a big deal to FNM back in the day. I still don't think I'l end up buying it, can't see myself giving it frequent listens. Same. I've only played it once so far and it didn't really hold my interest. I intend to listen to it again, I'm just excited about too many other things right now to slip this one back in. But it'll happen. And ideally, I'll like it more with time. The good thing is that my hopes weren't too high anyway so it's hard to be disappointed. My expectations were met.

Mars Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 It is way nu metal(super hero, motherfucker) and sounds more like the last bad tomahawk album I said it before that if it wasnt faith no more or mike patton that nobody would care about this at all Not at all "nu metal" sounding...what nu metal band sounds like either of those songs?

youspinmeround Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Not at all "nu metal" sounding...what nu metal band sounds like either of those songs? This band was always borderline nu metal. But in the late 80s and 90s it was original what they were doing. Nothing original about this at all and I loved the band(at least real thing, angel dust, king for a day). It is ok to have different opinions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is ok to have different opinions Definitely agree about different opinions, I just don't hear the nu metal. This band had their sound before the term nu metal was ever coined. Not trying to dismiss your opinion, but which nu metal influences do you hear here? To me, nothing in the vocals or instrumentation sounds like nu metal. It sounds like FNM doing what they've always done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rip Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 If it was original what they were doing in the 80's and 90's then doesn't that mean you shouldn't be surprised if they have some hints of that sound now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morfiend Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 This album grew on me pretty quickly so I really hope some of you give it a few more listens before passing judgment. I don't think it's as good as the previous albums but I wasn't expecting it to be considering how long it had been. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevbayer Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 So bummed to get as email yesterday from bull moose basically your order is canceled. ...bullshit. Now I have missed out on the clear also. I knew I should have went for the Euro versions instead. Fucking lame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinterFartSteam Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 I forgot I ordered this. Haven't received a confirmation from Bullmoose notifying of a cancelation yet, but honestly, I didn't think this album was that great, so if they do, no loss.

imaxcowboyx Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 This album is currently my Album of the Year... no joke. I take it you were there friday? Refused's set = teh boring. But Faith No More was awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mameeshkamowskwoz Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 I take it you were there friday? Refused's set = teh boring. But Faith No More was awesome. I was. I still enjoyed Refused's set. I've only listened to their new album once, but I didn't hate it. I thought they were pretty good. FNM knocked it out of the park, though. My first Refused show, but I'd seen FNM before.

nycmale Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Does anyone know if there willl be gold vinyl copies available on the 21st? Not sure if the other 750 copies of gold vinyl will be distributed to independent stores in the US or not. Some places online seem to hint so but aren't taking pre-orders.
