The first new song they put up was a lot better.

My brain was off and I thought this was a Scars on Broadway song for the first bit.

Decent enough stuff

I can't decide if this is good, or just generic. Regardless, this reminded me that I somewhat like this band *blast Holographic Universe*

I stopped caring about these guys the minute they got rid of Alvestam. Which is a shame because I actually REALLY liked them.

This is definitely better than 90% of what was on Dark Matter Dimensions, if only it didn't have the trite, breakdown-like guitar riff coming back so much.

The vocals are actually pretty good. I liked the song but I wish they did a little more with the main guitar riff. They never modulate the rhythm or anything which makes it a little repetitive considering it isn't very technical or interesting to begin with. I think this is going to be better than DMD though.. still don't think it sounds as good as the material on Holographic Universe.

Sounds pretty awesome to me. Maybe a little bland. The first song they released was better though, and yes, nothing can top Holographic Universe. That is one of my favorite metal cds ever.

The combination of Christian leaving and their guitarists deciding to start shitting on their guitars has really destroyed this band.

"their guitarists deciding to start shitting on their guitars has really destroyed this band."

Fucking this. I don't mind the vocals but what the fuck happened to Per and Jonas??, seems like they got lazy after HU.

Either Christian and/or Scar Symmetry need to sort their shit and realize what they had was a fantastic fucking band. This is alright, but really... they were so much better. Lars seems like a cool dude... but his voice just does not fit for this music. He sounds like he'd be great in a heavy/power metal band, but this isn't his vocal territory.

Christian needs to pull a Barlow (minus the quitting again) and get back into scar symmetry, and make a comeback album to slaughter all comeback albums. That is all.

Eh. Christian era pwn these guys now, but it was still a decent song. I wish they'd focus more on the death metal side of their music, though. At least that'd make up for the sub-par cleans.

Their last good release was Holographic Universe. Their last album was fucking awful and this is shaping up to be not much better.

Song is an improvement over the first one they posted... at least the production improved slightly over their last album.

Haven't bothered with this band after Holographic Universe was released. Guess I'll continue to stay away.
