This one will have to grow on me, Dan.

Not diggin it so far. A couple of good songs, but they went to "artsy". To me, Priest needs to just sledgehammer your senses.

 

I do enjoy the progressive bands. But Priest isn't supposed to be progressive. ;)

 

I'll DL..er..I mean buy this for the weekend and check it out. Been a fan of Priest since I learned that metal is cool, my first album O bought was Screaming for Vengeance and my favorite album is still Sad Wings of Destiny.

 

Haven't heard much from it.....Im just counting the days 'til Aug. 31st when I see them live!

 

When you learn how to count?

 

August 10th for me. :D

 

I dig it, but it is quite a departure for them, so I am letting it grow on me as well. In the words of Tom Petty, "The record man said I don't hear a single"...I think it has to be viewed as a collective work, with nothing "radio-friendly".

 

Just to clear something up, that's not why it has to grow on me. I could care less about radio friendly.

I'm just more used to "Painkiller", "Defenders" and "Vengeance" style Priest.

 

No 'Turbo Lover'? :wink2:

 

:sidelol:

 

That album was a real hose, thank god Painkiller came out to mollify the masses. Priest + Keyboards = crapola.
