even tho i do like it, i'd just have to say 2 things, they probly shouldda done the chorus again at the end kuz the ending was a lil weak and then on top of that, i'm gonna have to admit that they're getting just a lil too formulaic. it could be just me but idk, i'm starting to realize just how too similiar some of their songs r sounding.

#1, entirely agree with that brother, this song is actually not bad. These guys lost me after End of Heartache though. I used to be a die hard KsE fan :/

I agree with you n0thinghead. There songs have become so formulaic you can tell when the vocals will turn clean and which riffs they are going to use. They use the same concepts in alot of their songs.

They've been quite repetitive ever since As Daylight Dies, but that's probably just because they aren't going through those changes bands go through...not yet atleast. Plus, sometimes that's a good thing.

The Dream Theater Instrumental is the best I've heard so far. And I want to hear the Opeth song but cant f***ing find it lol.

^^^ agreed, and me neither, but completely off topic here.

acid/rain: that's exactly what i'm talking about. i feel psychic when listening to them, even if it's a new song or a song that i'm just not that too familiar with. i know when howard's gonna scream, when he'll bring out the clean vox and those random parts on a couple of songs where he does this kinda whispering talking, which is usually just rephrasing the chorus anyways or something long that's basically just saying "i miss you" lol idk i feel like an a$$hole bf that is just not feeling it anymore with my gf after like (how long have i been a fan now?) about 8 yr.'s now or soo.

The last fight is good from BFMF too. Actually, all three songs I've heard from their new album seem to be pretty good. I'm glad he's starting to use his voice a little better.

This Killswitch song is pretty good, but It sounds just like any other song from As Daylight Dies. I think if they would at least mix it up and maybe throw some solo's in there once in a while. They should also let Adam sing more.

The Forgotten is a great song though, one of the better ones from the new album.
