New Arch Enemy with new singer

[BenoA]

To my ears it has a different kind of "vibe" from what they they've been doing the past years. What do you think?

[BenoA]

@BeZo too funny!

 

[NinjaRaf]

LoLoL

I don’t hate it. Way less boring than the last few. I like Lauren in Once Human.

Oooh, another song about "rising". So that makes 42 or 43 by now?

 

[Devin]

Reminds me of In Flames for some reason

 

[ZEEGLER]

I can't say I've listened to Arch Enemy all that much, but don't all these female singers pretty much sound exactly the same?

I'd like to Bluechew Alissa White-Gluz's centrally located blue mane.

 

[Devin]

You could add additional white gluez

On my second listen I feel meh about it.

The clip is a bit cheezy but I just listened to the music a few times and without being great it's at least better than what they had been doing the past few years. The past two records I thought they had become a parody of themselves and were very predictable. I am curious of the next release.

Sigh...

I really like Dream Stealer from the last record. But I am hoping to hear some really cool riffs like Wages of Sin and Burning Bridges type.

For me I really was into Rise of the tyrants with that Caligula scene in the intro of the title song. I really dug that record. With Alissa, the Eagles flies alone was a good one too and yes, Dream Stealer wasn't bad at all (listening to it as I reply)

Who gives a fuck?

Yes sir. She's hot as fuck. I was a big fanboy of AE when Christopher was in the band. He's one of my favorite guitar players - criminally unknown and underrated. As a player, skill, feel, tasteful leads, full-on shred, he's a notch above Loomis. He taught Joey, and you hear it in Joey's playing.

I'm a bigger fan of the older stuff with Johan - Black Earth, Stigmata, Burning Bridges, and earlier Angela - Anthems of Rebellion, Doomsday Machine and Khaos Legions are all killer albums. After Khaos Legions, I lost interest. Alissa came in looking all hot, and turned it into a band with a hot singer, and weak music. Went total commercial and lame. She became the focus of the band, not the music.

Ditto. It does feel a little fresher than the other stuff, but the song writing is still lame. I do like her vocals though. Different than Alissa's, but with a cool upper mid rasp/shhhh quality. I think she could do a good cover of the screams in this otherwise lame song:

I listened for a bit and then shut it off, like everyone does with my music hahaha
