Oddly enough, I think the actual contents of Paralax II were what I felt was a bit lacking, but I'm still hyped as hell for this. I mean, these guys made freaking Colors.

Zantera · « **Reply #281 on:** March 17, 2015, 02:14:32 PM »

Colors will forever be one of those special albums. I mean, I do like their other albums quite a lot, some more than others, but Colors will always be THAT special one.

FlyingBIZKIT · « **Reply #282 on:** March 17, 2015, 03:01:40 PM »

Awesome, looking forward to this. So that means a new single in a little over 2 weeks.

Buddyhunter1 · « **Reply #283 on:** March 17, 2015, 07:53:38 PM »

They announced tour dates w/ Animals as Leaders and The Contortionist, too.
They're completely skipping Massachusetts, from the looks of it.

Love the last album, can't wait for the new one!

Slowly getting into this band thanks to The Parallax DVD. Stunning performance.

They seem to change up their sound every 2 albums, so I bet this new album will mark a new era for the band, and a different musical direction all together.

Not a drastic change, but as much of an evolution from the TGM/Parallax sound as Alaska/Colors was from their first two albums, and as TGM/Parallax was from Colors.

Very excited. This will probably be album of the year. BTBAM have a perfect discography imo

Wait... yeah that's true.

FlyingBIZKIT · « **Reply #291 on:** March 21, 2015, 06:03:03 PM »

Hard to find many flaws with their work. I'm not huge on the debut album, and I think The Silent Circus had some really good stuff on it, but everything Alaska onwards is just incredible.

FlyingBIZKIT · « **Reply #292 on:** March 27, 2015, 11:26:42 AM »

Man these $65 VIP tickets are a steal. I really want to go see them in Athens or Tallahassee but damn last time I saw them the fucking crowd got on my nerves. I couldn't pay a whole lot of attention to BTBAM cause the people in the crowd were being idiots.

Dr. DTVT · « **Reply #293 on:** March 27, 2015, 12:47:42 PM »

I didn't get any of my stuff when I bought VIP tickets last tour, just a ticket. Never got a reply to my emails. Buyer beware on the VIP package.

The new song is called "Memory Palace"

Man it really has been. I remember going out and getting the Future Sequence and the new Pig Destroyer and just driving around jamming them before class haha. Time really flies these days.

FlyingBIZKIT · « **Reply #297 on:** March 27, 2015, 03:45:48 PM »

I know, kinda scary to be honest. I remember I was listening to it on the way home from school my senior year. Hell now I'm halfway through college.

Shit, I'm graduating next week.

EDIT: Memory Palace is a radical song title.

Randaran · « **Reply #299 on:** March 27, 2015, 06:54:46 PM »

Memory Palace... damn, I really like this title. Only one more week until I get to hear new BTBAM, and then a concert two days later!

As this will be my first time seeing them, I am not sure of what I want from a setlist. I would be ecstatic if they play at least one of White Walls, Ants in the Sky, or Disease Injury Madness, though their discography is so strong as a whole that they could play whatever the hell they wanted and I would be satisfied with the setlist.

Sounds good to me.

mikemangioy · « **Reply #301 on:** March 30, 2015, 01:38:36 PM »

Yes! More melody is what I was hoping for. Tommy's screams and growls are great, but nothing beats something like, let's say, Lay Your Ghosts To Rest chorus.

wolfking · « **Reply #304 on:** April 02, 2015, 05:42:12 PM »

I'll take anything from this band tbh. Everything they do is fantastic. Keen to hear this new one though is melody is a focus.

Randaran · « **Reply #305 on:** April 02, 2015, 06:57:15 PM »

On the band's website, the most recent post is a short video advertising their appearance at an upcoming festival. During this clip, a portion of a song, possibly Memory Palace, plays. It definitely sounds like BTBAM, though a little different from their sound on the past few albums, and I like it quite a bit. I look forward to hearing the rest tomorrow (assuming that it is from the upcoming single).

Randaran · « **Reply #306 on:** April 03, 2015, 05:32:07 AM »

I have now listened to the full song. It reminds me of Parallax II, though it is not as heavy. I can now safely say that CE is my most anticipated album of the year so far.

Tracklist (from iTunes):

1 Node (3:31)
2 The Coma Machine (7:35)
3 Dim Ignition - (2:16)
4 Famine Wolf (6:50)
5 King Redeem / Queen Serene (6:58)
6 Turn on the Darkness (8:26)
7 The Ectopic Stroll (7:02)
8 Rapid Calm (7:59)
9 Memory Palace (9:54)
10 Option Oblivion (4:22)
11 Life in Velvet (3:38)

It seems strange that they released the longest song on the album as the single.

That's funny because, while I normally really enjoy well done death growls (John Tardy from Obituary will always be the king), I never thought Tommy's were anything really special. I still love Colors, but I have enjoyed BTBAM's material more and more as they seem to have introduced a bit more melody with each passing album.

I'm not too sure how I feel about this one right now. It's definitely something new for BTBAM, but nothing drastically different either. It's just the right amount to keep people interested.

While refreshing, I'll have to let it sit with me for a while. It certainly didn't blow me away or anything, but there were definitely some great bits dotted throughout.

It's on iTunes, brah.

Though I did find it curious that there was little mention of it on their social media outlets.

FlyingBIZKIT · « **Reply #311 on:** April 03, 2015, 08:09:20 AM »

I like the song, feels refreshing and new like how they were describing the album. Less heavy, more melodic and proggy.
