Metalunderground.com brings you the exclusive premiere of the lead track off Autumns Eyes' new album, "Please Deceive Me." The song, titled "Icabod," can be heard in the player below.

Dan Mitchell commented on the song:

The track itself has it's own identity, as with most songs on 'Please Deceive Me'. However, the meaning is definitely more personal than the other tracks. It was written for my son, who is yet to be born. Some will call it corny, but I didn't write this for anyone else but my son. It's basically a promise to him before he enters the world. One day when he's old enough to make fun of his old man, I'll be ready for the insults. For now, it's more of a personal dedication. Besides, you can only go so far trying to be a tough guy who writes evil lyrics in this genre.

Here's the complete "Please Deceive Me" tracklisting:

1. Ichabod
2. Blood In the Woods
3. Anxiety Spiders
4. Please Deceive Me
5. So Close to Shadow
6. Pangea
7. Cobwebs and Crosses
8. Red Wine and Resin
9. Haunting Your Daughter
10. The Wooded Road

"Please Deceive Me" was delayed from its planned Halloween release following a freak October snow storm that caused major power outages in the Northeast. The album will be released "soon" and you'll be able to hear the full album stream here first.

In related news, the winners of the Metalunderground.com-sponsored Autumns Eyes Halloween costume contest have been announced. You can see them here, along with rest of the entries.

Personally, I think that's a kickass little dedication of a song. If my dad had written a song like that for me, I'm sure I would appreciate it! Great tune.

Hey BG: what are you browsing on? Phone? Desktop? If desktop, what sort of browser? It's a Flash player, so I know it won't work on some mobile devices. But it's the only way I can make the underlying MP3 secure at the moment.

Yeah, it could be slow to stream. Unfortunately the player is a little poor on the feedback front (if it's playing, how much has buffered, etc.). It's not my song, so I can't send it to you - you'd have to contact Dan about that.
