yeah, and the lyrics- swears and all- make me think there might be some old Billy rage in there :billyangry :D

its been awhile since he dropped motherfucker in a new song ;)

lol. i also am glad that billy dusted off motherfucker for a song. ive missed it so much. honestly i must say that so far i love these lyrics. a great change of pace from zeitgeist songs. (i love zeitgeist... but the lyrics are different from the grandiose type lyrics from MCIS through Machina)

Man, Owata seems awesome as do the lyrics for As Rome Burns...I'm getting extremely pumped for all these new songs :D. Now I just need to get to one of their concerts sometime...

All the vids of the other songs are so good to hear but is there still no sign of "As Rome Burns"?? I still cant believe it hasnt turned up yet... not even a clip?? :( And same goes for the cover of "Sounds".... Its a pity that You Tube doesnt have a 'request' feature.... as I'm sure that someone has something somewhere!!! ;)

Wow...badass. I think we need the studio version like, now. Definitely some old Billy rage in there...

Honestly I'm not that impressed by "As Rome Burns", but Billy does have a really good solo in it.

I think lyrically and musically, it kicks the crap out of ANY of the heavier Zeitgeist tracks.

I disagree. "7 Shades of Black", "Tarantula", "United States", and "(Come On) Let's Go!" are all better than this I think. I don't think we'll see "As Rome Burns" on the next album.

I like the lyrics, but to me this just sounds like something that would have been tacked onto the new version of Heavy Metal Machine during the recent tours. It's kind of "muddy," for lack of a better word. Ya know what I mean? Still good though, I'm excited.

Different tastes, I guess. I will give you Tarantula, though.

What you need to remember is if this sounds this good live, on record it will probably be even more kick ass. Here's to hoping we get a studio version somehow.

Wonder if these new songs are at all connected to the upcoming "concept album"? I dunno Song For A Son and As Rome Burns' lyrics sound like they would fit into some sort of conceptual scheme...

BTW, I like this much better than G.L.O.W (although that was a pretty good song anyway).

Yeah, that was pretty damn awesome. I love how much energy is in his voice in the beginning!

And I really like the guitar sounds. The only "muddiness" comes from the poor audio quality, from what I can tell.

These new tunes are really amazing! I'm trying to NOT listen to them so that I can keep the anticipation there!
