Jobby Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Matt said JFK will be an intro they used in the BH&R era, and there was confusion that this meant WATU even though this was TR. I'm assuming JFK will literally be the JFK speech they used to open Madison Garden in 2007 and nothing to do with WATU. Ah, good. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craaig Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Notes I wrote from the show/interview tonight mercy starts off with bass and piano (Matt not on the piano), definitely had a starlight vibe to me. Defector is the darkest the album gets JFK is the same audio they used to open some shows during BHAR tour. They've had thoughts of playing the album front to back Mercy is about fighting oppressive forces The handler is where the album makes some sort of shift, and it's also Matts favourite song on the album.

heyjackk Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Where are you getting this from? was in another thread somewhere I thought it had a bit of a slower version of the main synth line? And true, I guess. Shame if it's true anyway, I really liked the sparse 'We are the universe' bits, replacing them with a JFK speech would be a downgrade imo. Minor gripe though, I suppose. same key and similar but it was different if i recall correctly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hat Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 The Psycho Tour threadOh so you're assuming Clunge mixed up BH&R and TR? That would be weird but I guess it's the only "source" we have of WATU being used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craaig Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 It would be weird, I agree, but I can't see WATU being used for [JFK] when they did use a JFK speech on the BH&R cycle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean simply combining the two, and obviously removing the vocals that already exist in WATU. But yeah WATU doesn't seem to have been mentioned anywhere else so it's probably just a misunderstanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, they might have done something similar, considering that Defector begins in the same key (Dm) as Uprising does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexander DeLarge Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 The real question is, will they play it at the LA gigs in an attempt to wipe the shit recording from people's minds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jangdiin Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 It seems like it's gonna be really weird having this song just after Psycho and before Reapers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topo_musero Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Mercy sounds good! It could be in BH&R perfectly. I couldn't be happier with the direction Drones is taking. I'm very optimistic about the album Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forevermusic Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Only just heard it. Not a great recording but didn't really feel an immediacy like I did with the other 3 new ones. Although its not Big Freeze reprehensible at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aeterna Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 If another song is leaked or released, I'll listen to it, but I'll ignore anything more than that. I don't want to hear more than half of the album before it's out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Man Pigeon Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 It's a little darker than Starlight but not by much. The comparisons with Glorious are sort of true but it doesn't seem to have any cool riffs like Glorious did. Take 50% of Starlight, 30% of Glorious, 10% of Guiding Light and 10% of Follow Me and you have Mercy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
