Hessian Peel, though judging by previous rounds it'll be Heir Apparent which gets the boot. Even though, for me, HA is a brilliant song. I can't help thinking Hessian Peel is yet another example of a song getting far along simply because of its length. I've never been able to understand what is great in this track. The acoustic intro is fine, but after that it's nothing at all that the band hadn't done before. Compared with the other tracks on this album, even the heavy riffs are uninspired to my ears.

Heir, Burden and Lotus are the best 3 tracks on this one.

Agreed with everything you said.
people on this board are actual music fans who developed taste in music and not casual listeners who are following current fashion trends and listening to only current commercial hits.
