What do you think?

I found it to be interesting, and piques my interest for the rest of the album.

Count me in for interested as well.

There's also a rough demo of a new Cryptopsy song called "Carrionshine" on their website if anyone wants to check it out.

Yeah, I've heard that couple of weeks ago or so. Good shit.

A bit more about this song in relation to the rest of the album:

This is one of the shortest songs on the record. We also called it "the hit single" because it's definitely one of the easiest to get into - I personally really like this one and find it sticks in your head easily. As you noticed, there's no solo - in fact it's the only song without a solo. It's ALSO just about the *slowest* song on the album (apart from the really slow bits in the epic pieces, but those also contain REALLY fast crazy parts too).

So, I think this one is probably something of an anomaly in that it's not really representative of the rest of the album in tempo or intensity, but is definitely a good teaser. As I said before, I really like this one - it's one of my faves and I think it'll catch on.

On another note, George did this entire song on the first take. This tempo (180bpm if my memory is correct) is something he can play day in and day out and as you can hear he's totaly rock solid on it. Listen also to the uber-cool double ride cymbal stuff on the choruses and the whole end part.

Wow, slowest one and only one w/out solos. Teasing...

EDIT: Holy shit. This album slays. BTW, for those dont' know, the album leaked on internet. I will definitely buy it. Damn, the drums are crazy. Hot damn. \m/ \m/
