EdBuck Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 I wish they'd both just disappear to be honest Both? A tad harsh on Queen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatchHellBlues Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Just for reference everyone said Reapers was AC/DC, not RATM. Harmonies don't ruin songs Come on They ripped off Bombtrack and Freedom big time! Not saying harmonies ruin songs. I just don't like the Queen style stuff and enough people have pointed to that for me to be concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LewisF Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Matt's vocals in Reapers are also 'stacked' in some way, no? They might be a little in the chorus, with two different octaves of vocals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jobby Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 K so I just realised tonight would line up with pretty much exactly when T2L leaked. T2L leaked/streamed around 4-5 days before initial release (Drones comes out in some countries on the 6th I think) and exactly a week before worldwide release. Not that this album will follow the exact same path as T2L but, yeah. Slightly more open to the idea of a leak now. They almost ruined Mercy chorus though Mercy's chorus was already ruined, the vocal harmonies were effectively a turd on a landfill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamCee Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 A few minutes ago you were saying how little you cared for reviews and now the entire album is dependent on this one review?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harmonies don't ruin songs Me mum was watching the coverage of Big weekend and compared Reapers to a Guns n Roses song, so who the hell knows what kind of a monster they've created...

T2L only leaked 'cause some site put the stream up early though. Considering what we've heard about The Handler being released tomorrow (today), a stream wouldn't really make sense.

Aeterna Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 A few minutes ago you were saying how little you cared for reviews and now the entire album is dependent on this one review?? They wouldn't just make up that the songs are multilayered, though. Comments on features of the song are objective, whereas the reviewer's opinion on the songs is subjective.
