Just about to post the same thing,he has so much to offer any band in the vocal department and he barely changes a note here.Ok he's giving what Kerry wants but still so much wasted potential.
This does nothing for me either.

Meh, not awful but sounds like a lost track from GHUA or Repentless. Hated the shouty vocals with Araya, hate them with Osgueda now, one dimensional and tiring. I think the album will be competent but totally average.

Just could have been any random screaming kid


This.
Generic 'scream-o' vocals here. This would benefit greatly from vocals that have more 'character'.

If Osgueda had character on this one it would totally overwhelm Kerry's generic riffing so that can't happen.

He should form a band with Karl Logan and a digitally-reanimated Dave Holland.
The Nonces.

Jokes aside, that's some shocking news. Such a vile crime.

that's another story here, not about music skill at all, otherwise we will have bad jokes or no joke at all with those
same goes for Schaffer or Vikernes for different reason
not the same story as "this guy doesn't play or cant write as good as this other guy" which is in itself absurd comparaison
i will never play like King or Ulrich whatever I do

I would criticize labels for making a record double price (which is already double price of underground music) because the guy is famous, instead of doing more records, because of capitalism, because of people collecting for the sake of collecting - so fuck your 40euro business

Jon Schaffer as second guitarist for replacement to Jeff.

It's alright for what it is. Parts of it are catchy I'll admit. What I don't understand is the people acting like it's the worst thing ever. And then you have the reverse where people are claiming it's the heaviest and most unique song in existence.

Because people are unable to judge something on it's merits, but on whether they like or dislike King or based on Slayer's work or Death Angel's work. None of which has anything to do with the music.

This pace is much better suited for them that the silly fast stuff. Also encouraging that Mark gets to sing and not just scream like Araya. Really like Demmel's solo.
