Although I'm not really sure about the logic. How many people would really not buy tickets on the basis of one single? And among those, how many really going to have bought tickets having heard nothing at all?

In my case, I'm desperately trying to buy a ticket for the concert in Lima, but they aren't available yet :'(

It sounds like, "ruk, ruk, ruk, ruk, ruk." Instead of the more pleasing kick drum sound of, "gzarruk, gzarruk, gzarruk, gzarruk."

Even if it's 5 people, it's still a win. Hype from the tour, then hype from the new music. If the new music is a letdown to people, and then you announce the tour, they won't be hyped about that either.

I'm hyped if a band I enjoy decides to come here. Usually an instant buy, regardless of the album.

Its not like they're Coheed and Cambria. They release a new album, only play like 3-4 songs from it and the rest of the set is the same songs they always play. I looked at their setlist recently and its all the same exact songs they always play. So, I guess in a way me seeing them depends on the new album and if they decide to change the set.

Its sad when I can predict the set for most bands that tour. I like when bands switch it up every tour.

I really wish Haken could come here. But our promoters would say "who the fuck is Haken". But they did get Bent Knee which I was surprised happened, although it was a small crowd.

Definitely get where you're coming from, but to my point, whether they announce tour to your area first or release new music first, they aren't losing with you either way, they only stand to gain.

As for Coheed specifically, they at least have had at least had the Neverender tours which has forced them to play rare stuff for parts of the evening.

Aussies apparently have it on streaming services, because they live in the future. I imagine the video will pop up tonight or tomorrow therefore!

Interesting song, but I'm hoping this is a repeat of Affinity where the lead single ended up being one of the weaker tracks.

Just listened to it, and it’s really good! :metal There’s a lot going on, but I definitely like it. Need more listens, though.

Btw, the way the song starts definitely shows that Clear is an intro piece like affinity.exe.

Okay, this new single is awesome. Aside from the obvious added focus on heavy riffs, this song is also really catchy IMO. I love Ross' singing on this track.

Ross indeed sounds better than ever. The songs seems to serve a similar function like Initiate did on Affinity (for which I needed the context of the album to fully enjoy), but as a standalone track I like it more than Initiate.

Not as good as Affinity's lead single but this is promising. Sounds very adventurous for a single so I have no doubt Haken will keep doing weird things while keeping the songwriting on point. Hope I can get over the corny lyrics as soon as I hear the whole album :lol
