I just listened to "They Call Me Black Devil", my first touch with the band.

And..
I ordered the last three albums.

I liked the artwork better when it didn't have those white splooges everywhere. Also the lam in the middle (which I first thought to be a bunny) was better in the first version.

Because when lamb looks like a bunny - it's better?

Lamb looks like bunny, bunny looks like lamb. It reminds me of those cool optical illusions. So yeah, I would say it's better. Especially when the bunnylamb looks so much better art wise than the lamblamb.

Kickass new track. I love the bluesy solo towards the end, though I was expecting a more Sludgy transition. Hyped out for this!

Yes, but this somehow seems more pathetic, since the South in the US is no place I want to be. It's difficult for me to go south of Iowa. And I don't think they "nailed" the Southern look and I don't know why anyone would want to...

"In evvvveerrryyyyyyy grief stricken blueeeeeeeessss-ah!!!" Ugh...they were alright until that shit came out.

Maybe because once you look past all the stereotypes the south is actually a really beautiful place with a rich culture and musical history?

You know I really didn't care that a french band wants to make southern U.S. influenced BM, I just didn't think they nailed the look. I can't believe people actually might of got upset over it. Seriously, it's just music, it sounds good or it doesn't.

:lol: So because you don't like the South, nobody should ever try to evoke any kind of atmosphere or theme based around it? Get the fuck out.

Sorry I missed their set at MdF...

don't be, it wasn't impressive. i caught them at the sidebar too and the sound was crap, maybe 8 people at the sidebar show too.
and to give you a bit of background i love this band and own all their albums, except for that 12" split that sounds like a totally different band.

besides, they're going to tour the states again very soon. you can see them then.

It's probably the same member who said something akin to "good riddance" when the front man of Suicide Silence died.

Oh, I found the tweet: ''There's one less of those gay emocore kids alive. God bless motorcycles!''

LOL! glorior belli rules.
