Heard all the samples of the new cd which will be out in September. to my ears a different type sound, not saying bad just different. single tomorrow sounds good with some modern touches.

Well, something different is what we've been wanting from these guys for years, so hopefully it's good.

Heard the new tune...Good stuff although I can't say it sounds all that much different to me.  It still has that Nordic guitar sound and a familiar feel to it.

Either way, sounds like Eclipse to me ;) :headbanger:

Wow, that was a lot better than I expected. Martensson has a great ear for melody (and he's a terrific producer as well, sonically everything he does sounds great) so it's nice to hear a song like this from him. I dig it.

Didn't see samples on Itunes yet but found short samples here:

Tough to tell in 30 second samples but I'm kind of hearing a lot of stuff that reminds me of the Are You Ready To Rock album style-wise.

Sounding pretty good to me.

I guess if I really tried it may be a bit "different", but I really just hear Eclipse!

Appears the standard CD release of this is a digipak.  It's listed as a digi both on the bands web shop and on the Frontiers web site.

Wonder why?  Frontiers generally always uses jewel cases unless it's a double CD release.

I'm to the point where I'm passing on CD's that are in digipaks these days I dislike them so much.  Guess I'll have to look to Japan if I decide to buy this.

Pretty standard Eclipse song IMO.  Solid song but at the same time I can't say it's striking me all that much.  I guess my problem is this just sounds like a lot of other stuff they've done and don't really see this standing out in their catalog at all.

I thought I had read they were trying new things on this album but not really hearing that so far.

Will still be checking out the album though and album samples sounded pretty good.

I feel the same about this new song as I did the other two.

Decent & listenable.  But feels like very standard Eclipse to me. 

Still looking forward to the album though.

    • I wonder what control they have over the releases? That have promoted the BMG individual releases. The 2009 reissues were by original label, EMI. And this boxset seems weird being issued by Cherry Red. And I have not seen the bands social media promote it at all. I wonder if the reason the BMG ones were lacking in the bonus tracks from the previous reissue was EMI holding onto the rights, but have now allowed Cherry Red to release them. I know EMI used to be the distributer for Cherry Red, so they may be more forthcoming with the material.  
    • Yep, cracking indie release of which there are so many but this one is actually really good.
    • I have been a Band Maid fan since their early days (2015) as I really don't mind foreign vocals as long as the music is great, but I always kinda avoided Babymetal as I saw a video of them once and really wasn't impressed with the kiddy vocals, so never gave them another chance. Fast forward to now and on the back of the collab with Electric Callboy I have decided to give them a go. I thought they had a huge discography as they have like 25 albums, but on closer inspection it is only four studio albums and 21 live albums. As I am not a fan of live albums anyway, I decided to buy the four studio albums as they are all quite cheap. Have to say there music is a mixed bag, but overall really enjoying a lot of it. Not sure if I just picked the wrong song to start with, or if it is just that I have adapted more due to getting into a lot of weird and wonderful foreign bands over the last few years, but I am glad I finally gave them a proper go. Have to say, if this song was sung in English I think they would have a lot of fans on here  
    • Babymetal - Metal resistance Babymetal - The other one
    • Enjoyed their last cd "Human Nature" remind me of a mellower Black Stone Cherry, similar to Little Caesar.
    • BlackRain - Hot Rock Time Machine Lee Aaron - Bodyrock
    • Now theres a blast from the past  I'm lucky enough to possess 
    • Another i'm still awaiting the arrival of...same day release/delivery my arse Amazon  Still this is sounding like their best release thus far...they are gaining and getting better...although I did enjoy the last few albums also...but the sound/production from this one is excellent.
    • Still awaiting mine to arrive...should've been on Weds  or according to my order that was the case anyway
