    New album, first in over 6 years out September 2nd, Dystopia was great will be hard for them to top that, new song was released last week, getting Endgame vibes off it, not bad.

    Still waiting on the pre-order to arrive

    Metalwarfare users have slated this so trying to avoid to many reviews until I have it in hand.

    Big fan since '88.

    Terrible album. I'm something of a completist so picked it up anyway, so my own fault. The vinyl sounds great and the artwork/inlay is the business but it's a terrible record. The Title Track which opens up the album leaves you with the impression that we could be on to something but after that it's 50+ minutes of turgid tripe. A real chore to get through, I woke up towards the end where there was a track clearly with the same blueprint as the far superior Black friday. Dave's voice is in a jock (See link below).

    Did anyone using the pre-order from the UK store receive it yet?

    (Will never ever use BSI for anything ever again)

    I don't know how anyone could go for this over superior material. Haven't had the inkling once to go back to it beyond the initial listens.

    I wsnt gone on the album when it was released, however it has grown on me immesnely.


    musicianship yet again, second to none.


    Mustaine is a riff god - end of. Try learn or watch ppl play it. Melodies etc are incredible.


    one thing, drum sound for me, its lacking something, but im being pedantic.

    It's weak sauce. The bottle says it's extra hot but you taste it and ask "Where's the heat?"

    Seems like Kiko is officially out, thought he was very good when they played Three Arena in 2015.
