Boris Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 So this (30 second preview of a) song has somehow missed having its own thread (unless I missed it)....we can't have that can we? What does everyone think? Anyone else instantly think of "The Winner Takes It All" for the first little bit of vocal melody? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*OoS* Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Everyone keeps spaffing about this, but I think it's the weakest preview... Guiding Light is saved by the riff. The rest is <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
static shadows Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Really can't tell for this one. The Chorus is all right, but nothing special. Possibly repeats "I want the Twooth" too many times... But the reviews so far have said this song is all about a huge riff, which wasn't in that clip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chenshall90 Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 I will withhold my judgement until I hear said riff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clunge Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 It's seven minutes long! Any judgements made are utterly irrelevant at this stage . Chris: On the other hand, Unnatural Selection is a heavy and hard rock number with completely different elements. Interviewer: This song starts with a majestic pipe organ solo. Chris: Yes, from there it turns into aggressive metal guitar rock, and it slows down to a dramatic interlude, then it picks back up to violent riffs, and that’s how it develops. Since there are so many tracks like that in this album, it’s impossible to categorize it into specific genre. Even a single song gives different impressions to each individual, so we decided a long time ago not to put ourselves in any boxes. Especially this album could be called random… well, the style of each song is extremely different from one another, and it cannot be described by any one particular definition.

static shadows Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 I'm guessing we got 30 seconds of the "dramatic interlude" then! Does sound like it's about to kick back into a big riff at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOTPRules Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Agreed. This song goes back and forth so many times, this preview is minimal. I love everything about this except, the i want the truth (it's annoying, he sings it too many times, and he recorded himself singing really hgih, which ever since i noticed, everytime i play i hear the high pitch melody, and its really annoying ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a-museing Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Judging by what I've heard so far and what Chris said I'm thinking that this will be my favourite apart from Exogenisis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citizen Erased Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 I need to hear it all, but so far it's pretty awesome. I like the vocals in it most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raiko Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 I'm not saying it's a weak song. We've only heard 1/14th of the track so far. But it's a damn weak clip. Probably the weakest after MK Ultra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demonocracy Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 I like how the last "I want the truth" has a high pitch voice with it. Like megalomania. Matt singing with his normal voice + falsetto is really nice and creepily good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furygirl Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 I already love the sound of this one just from the 30 second clip. To me, the fact that's a 7 minute song could indicate epicness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopix Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 The comment that Chris said about this song have just thrown my expectations through the roof. It sounds fucking incredible now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coyblythe Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Awesome! Can't wait for it - it's gonna be epic *_* And I was soooooo happy when I heared Matt singing the last "I want the truth" in the falsetto voice that I thought I'd never hear again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coyblythe Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Damn, I can't even hear this falsetto everyone is raving about. Hm ... don't know if we got the same timeline (is it called like this?) but in my self recorded version you find the falsetto starting at 0:25/0:26. It's just in the background. Maybe you'll rather hear it if you imagine what Matt's falsetto normaly sounds likewhen it comes to 0:25. As for my imagination it sounds exactly like that and reminds me of Scissor Sisters' Don't feel like dancing xD Hope I helped by figuring out Matt's damn freaky falsetto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In Ryanbows Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 I'm guessing we got 30 seconds of the "dramatic interlude" then! Does sound like it's about to kick back into a big riff at the end. I know this is a little early to make judgments, but if what we heard was just an interlude, then I think we have ourselves the best song on the album.

CarrieB Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Anyone else instantly think of "The Winner Takes It All" for the first little bit of vocal melody? Not until you said so! There are going to be similar notes in songs. This is one that I think will bring round the doubters going by what Chris has said. I do think people are making judgements too early, not on this thread but elsewhere. Sounds like it will be epic. BTW I love the way Matt talks.
