I liked everything up through Human Factor. After that I lost track of them for several years.Mike has always been my favorite mc voice.

I'm kinda in the same boat. The last album of their's that interested me was Masterpeace. Not a popular choice, but I like it. Anyway, after that, I tried a few others, but nothing stuck. The return of Howe got me curious, but I'm not sure I'll be going out of my way to track down this new album.

Curious about the production. Kurdt came out on Facebook declaring the recording of this album was "old school." Whatever that means.

I hope I don't get laughed at for my ignorance in recording and producing, but could he have meant Analog?

There's the possibility of that, or perhaps he means not heavily edited/manipulated through pro tools. Or something else. Dude is far too cryptic haha.

Ah, okay. That makes sense. Come on March, 25th!

Newly released lyric video for "Killing Your Time" off the new album:



I guess Nuclear Blast is handling the album overseas? As far as I knew it was being released on the Queensryche guy's "Rat Pak" label, at least in the U.S.

I like that better than the first track.

That's a good tune. I'm hoping on getting the 2 disc version with the 8 bonus tracks.

Yeah, that's much better than the other song.

Awesome song. Album getting better and better.

Wish I had the money for a pre-order. Some of the packages look great.

I just checked out the bundles! Wow! That Mike Howe bundle looks sweet with so much stuff, but I don't know if I want to get a thank you phone call from him, seems like it might be rather awkward.

That song is AWESOME!!! WAY better than that first single from the new album. Those lyrics are brutal too!

Oh, yes! Me likey!

It is definitely being released in the States on Rat Pak as those are the emails I get. The new song is good but I miss The Reverend and I actually like Ronnie's voice more so than Mike's...

Yeah NB is handling oversees. This sounds much better. I am shameless to admit that this is the even of the millennia to me.

Oh yeah! Sounds good! Can't wait for March!

That song has a really rich interlude. Solo is a bit more spunky than what we usually get (MC leads are, for the most part, stale to me regardless of guitarist). I listened to No Tomorrow again and I enjoy it just as much as this one. These songs strike a nice balance between the ferocity of Blessing in Disguise and the attitude of Human Factor.

I will say, however, that Generation Nothing was a fabulous album full of earworms, and Ronny's best performance--these songs so far don't hold a candle to what they captured on that last album.

Generation Nothing blew me away. Fantastic album.

Agreed.

I just found out that they are coming to the Altar Bar in Pittsburgh on 3/29. Now I haven't been to a concert in ages but this one is a must ! I'll be going to this one.

Yeah that one should be a bucket list gig for sure.

New album trailer with a snippet of the track "Reset."

Cool. Thank you, sir.

New track sounds cool! That intro riff could be better though.

Now that's a wicked song. Wanting to hear all of it so bad.

Saw that on Facebook last night. Sounding awesome !
