Dry Bone Valley sounds so intense.  :metal

The riffs from the sample sound absolutely killer, I can't wait!

Sounds like Brann Dailor, the drummer.

I immediately listened to the sample of Bedazzled Fingernails just to see if it was a joke song. :lol

Yeah, it matches the other album covers much more too.

Indeed, I think the darker color suits the sound of the band as well.

I hope the Special Edition is available at Specs or FYE.

It looks more like the Blood Mountain artwork.

And so far, the music sounds like Blood Mountain crossed with Remission.

Would be strange since I'm looking forward to it a lot yet those two are my least favorite albums by them.

Wish I could go see them, but at the time they're playing I have to finish a massive research paper so I can't make it :(

On a positive note though, the new album is fucking amazing and I've only listened to it once.  How am I supposed to study for my human resources test with this to listen to?

All I know aside from the 3 songs they've leaked, someone told me it sounded like it was just Crack the Skye songs not good enough to be on Crack the Skye,  I laughed at him.

Its nothing like Crack the Skye.  Its like nothing else they've done.  The closest comparison is probably Blood Mountain, but more unpredictable.  And better.
