Unfortunately, having heard the new single.... I'm not impressed in the
slightest. It's like a cheesy metal song with a poorly developed break
replacing a normal drum beat. I found it to be really boring, fortunately
the video itself was quite pleasant to watch. I suspect however, that the
weirder non-single tracks from the album could be pretty neat. But it still
remains to be heard just how good they are.
