I don't have a problem with the cover... Babylon is a good album, I am sure I will pick this one up too

I think the cover definitely fits the theme and spent some time looking for hidden things in there a la a Derek Riggs painting. All I could find was that a lot of the tree branches looked a bit like crucifixions.

Agreed. The artwork looks fine to me, but I don't care for the band name and album title. Looks just kinda slapped-in as an afterthought. Still looking forward to hearing it though.

I think the album cover looks great. It portrays Blackies conversion to Christianity. The album is based on the Bible (like the last one was) and the art portrays that.. The crown of thorns around the album title was a nice touch...
Looking forward to getting this ..I plan to also get Dominator and Babylon on vinyl...

I like that. It may be better than the new Maiden tune , at least on first impressions.

It's an decent song, but seems a little weak for a lead-off track. Yea, it sounds like WASP and I like it well enough, but I feel like when you hear a first track from a new album, it needs to really hook you in and make you take notice. I don't think this track does that.

The new Maiden tune smokes this as far as I'm concerned.

It may be because WASP has interested far more than Maiden lately, I just seem to dig this one a bit more. My opinion may change once I really get into these two.

I get that. I'm looking forward to both albums too, but I'm really looking forward to Maiden, so that might be tainting my opinion.

Wow. Maiden should really learn a lesson out of this.

Wow, I like that a lot! Instantly memorable hooks and riffs; right up my alley!

Nice stuff by the old guy, showing he still has it.

Here's another new track - "Scream."

Metal is Forever Number of posts : 7632 Age : 56

Isn't "Scream" the same song as "Crazy?"

Funny you mention that. I first listened to that new song earlier today on Blabbermouth and thought "Well, it sounds like WASP. Something very familiar about it too".

I wouldn't have put 2 and 2 together, but hearing both tunes side by side, they're very similiar. Someone call Blackie's lawyers. He's plagiarizing himself!! Razz

This is a really good release. After just one listen, the standout tracks so far are the title track and Slaves Of The New World Order.

W.A.S.P was a band that was never on my radar growing up, for some reason. Golgotha; however, kicks! I purchased it yesterday, and I'm digging it. IMO, the album goes from good to great starting with "miss you". headbanger

WASP was never on my radar either. My first album was "Babylon". I'm definitely picking this up.

EDIT: Just bought the Amazon download.
