art rock segment of the united states song sounds like a studio experiment that should have been heavily edited before release.

it's amazing to me that billy thought this material was good enough to partly base a reunion tour on.

sorry about this but i have to get it out of my system i've been afraid to listen to this record because it might suck and it would make me depressed in a place where i was very depressed to begin with.

death from above sounds like 80's hair metal.

i see billy dressed as a viking striding along with the waves a beach and in the background i see a viking ship. this is not good imagery to get from a song.

relistened to starz. it's a bad song but stuck out and therefore made me think that it might be good.

neverlost feels like a welcome break from the other stuff and it doesn't sound half bad.

zeitgeist the song was surprisingly enough an accoustic number that didn't really jump out at me. from first listen i would say the decent tracks are doomsday clock, 7 shades of black, neverlost and maybe stellar. very dissapointed with the record as always when it comes to billy cormacs post mcis material. why is life this way. why do we have to grow old and lose our abilities. why can't things be the way they are forever when they're good and be over quickly when they're bad. there is no point to anything

He's trying to get to 10,000 posts at the speed of light. He's going faster than that from what ive seen lately.

i listened to it recently for the first time in over a year. Still not much good about it except for the solo in Bring The Light making me pull faces.
