Hey Danny, please keep the USA bashing on an objective level. Thanks.

I'm inclined not to believe the wikipedia thing for two reasons.
1. the epitaph site says otherwise 2. that tracklisting is just a copy of the one bad religion used when recording the songs (see picture) |
|

Notice Wikipedia suggests the track listing in a different order? No "three consecutive 'of' songs" now:

ns is a good album imo, tna has some good songs too,i think ns is better and more consistant lyrically than tesf.too many poppy songs on tesf and crappy simpleton lyrics 'for the kids'
|

03/21/2007 at 01:32
Not sure why everyone is saying this is so dark? Sinister Rouge, Social Suicide, Los Angeles is Burning....face value the titles on TESF seem just as dark as any of these. All that aside, it'd be the tits if they did a Maiden cover...ha! No way Jay could play the Steve Harris gallop bass though :)

Is Grains of Wrath any reference to my book?

No Substance was an awesome album (One of my favourite BR albums), as was The New America (But not as good as NS).
The only fault with TNA was "1000 Memories" and "Whisper in Time". They're good songs, they just woulda been better on an American Lesion type release. It only had 13 tracks, and stronger songs there wouldn't have gone amiss instead. There Will Be a Way and Let It Burn were quite bland too, songs as interesting as Don't Sell Me Short and You've Got a Chance woulda been good instead. Anyone think we might get some guest vocals on NMoH? The negative reaction to Sage Francis may have put them off though (Even though Let Them Eat War was awesome). |

Hey, it has to be better than "The New America" or "No Substenence"
|
|

Actually 9-July-2007 is a Monday, not a Friday.
And Tets, refer to my date formatting to understand it better. |
|
03/20/2007 at 06:15
hey, the release date is not 7-10, but its 10-7?
see here: http://www.epitaph.com/releases/ |
|
03/19/2007 at 23:04
I think the more important question is why are they releasing it on a Friday here in the states?
|
|
03/19/2007 at 21:30
sorry... I had to do that.

Who wants to wager that this album will reflect certain aspects in relation to humanity?~!?!?!?!@ED!
F%#K YEAH!!! WHO COULDA GUESSED BY I?!?!?!?! |
|
03/19/2007 at 18:23
Im sure that this record will fucking rock!
|
|
03/19/2007 at 16:54
Yeah, the titles did strike me as being entirely un-bad religion, but after comparing the new titles to songs BR already released, i can see it's more of a mental illusion.
01. New Dark Ages (New America) 09. Prodigal Son (Modern Man) 10. Before You Die (Watch it Die) 12. Heroes and Martyrs (Misery and Famine, Quality or Quantity) |
|
03/19/2007 at 15:38
why isn't it called "Submission accomplished" then? hehe
|
|
03/19/2007 at 04:25
who wants to wager that Submission Complete is about Iraq?
|
|
03/18/2007 at 22:09
who wants to wager that grains of wrath is a graffin song?
|
|
03/18/2007 at 22:07
title of the record is kinda cool when you think about it. superficially it sounds metal, but its a pretty cool title.
|
|
03/18/2007 at 21:36
I hope this album will be like BR in the 80-85's album; it will be appreciate to see how BR can play original songs of this album. The return to the original sound Classic Punk Hardcore tendency!!!

"New maps of hell" is also the name of an essay by Kingslay Amis on science fiction.
Pure accident or allusion?????? Search on scifipedia.scifi.com ! |

oh yes theres nothing happier than suffering is there?

There was a similiar reaction to the names of the songs on TESF when they were first announced, IIRC.
In my head, the whole album is gonna go Beyond Electric Dreams style, but that's just what I've manufactured that thought because I've been thinking too much about the new album. It doesn't help much that the pictures have lots of dark colours in them, as that quite often formulates a certain viewpoint on an album. For example, I thought Suffer was gonna be a "happy" album because of the cover's bright colours, you know? |

With song titles like these, it sounds like first album of some super-hardcore heavymetal wannabe band. But it will be awesome me thinks.
|
|
03/18/2007 at 14:56
Could this be their last album ever?
|
|
03/18/2007 at 11:39
Sounds dark, sounds like more of the Sinister Rouge - alike songs. Can't wait!

I'm in the midst of readin Richard Dawkins "The God Delusion" (dedicated to my personal hero Douglas Adams). I wonder if "The Grand Delusion" is inspired by it...

--17 songs but how long is each tracks and how long is the album??--
I think I know how long "52 Seconds" is |
|
03/17/2007 at 21:46
i have a feeling ''before you die'' will be the single
|
|
03/17/2007 at 21:40
Sounds pretty awesome, 4 days after my Bday!!! Can't wait, its kinda wierd though that Brett isn't producing it but some other guy, but I'm sure its still awesome. Wooo HOo.

17 songs but how long is each tracks and how long is the album??
Im ready to listen that shit! hummmm!!! |
|
03/17/2007 at 17:00
that?s weird
Heavy metal!!! I?m curious |
|
03/17/2007 at 16:22
weird title and weird titles for songs... but it sounds awesome
|
|
03/17/2007 at 14:56
any signs that they got black metal influences recently??? at least the first 4-5 songs... Cant wait for it though!!
|
|
03/17/2007 at 14:54
Wow, I'm excited! It generally sounds pretty dark, which could be good or could be bad... I don't want them to do an Alkaline Trio and slow down and put too many synths in. It works for some bands, but not for BR...
I'm sure I'm wrong, and it'll rock, but I'll love it whatever they do :D |
|
03/17/2007 at 14:31
how many of the 17 tacks do you think are going to end up being b-sides

Brendon, I copied the dates from the Epitaph site. Go check it if you don't believe me.
|
|
03/17/2007 at 13:06
Prodigal Son could be an Iron Maiden cover, but I doubt it... And the release dates are switched around.... In Europe it comes out on July 9th, but America has to wait another day for it to come out on July 10th.d

Sounds like this album could be down there with In to the unknown. :( Dont really like the name or any of the song titles for that matter. But it's br so i'll shut my eyes and pretend that it is awesome :P
|
|
03/17/2007 at 11:01
Interesting to see no title song, unlike most their albums. Wonder if they'll include the album title as a song lyric (like Process of Belief in Materialist)?
Apart from that it's making me very excited; 17 songs! |
|
03/17/2007 at 10:20
The song titles sound almost like a parody of BR songs.
