Yea, I'm hoping the rest of the album is better than that song. I have faith that it will be.
I've liked pretty much everything (at least for awhile) they have put out since the very beggining. The "Black Album", for example, the first 6-8 times hearing it I thought it was a joke. I thought there would be a hidden album within the album that was going to pop out anytime and say..."HA-HA, you didn't actually think that was IT, DID YOU!?" Well needless to say that never happened. Eventually I learned to like it though, a lot.

That song really grew on me. I like it now that I've heard it a few times.
My original interpretation of it was that it was about child abuse. :dunno
I've also heard My Apocalypse, which I like. There was one song I really didn't like that I heard months ago. It was live from a concert in Germany. At the time they just referred to it as the new song. The lyric was about death being the beginning, not the end. Did that track make the CD?

It's the Cliff factor that's missing. He had the most prog rock influence of any of them.

No such thing in their music. He had a classical sensibility. Prog is different.

C'mon man, you pretty much negate your opinion when you say metal died in the 90's. ;)
There are still lots of great straightforward metal bands like The Sword and Mastadon and Iced Earth, and killer highly technical metal bands like Opeth.

Classical and prog go hand in hand. Listen to some Gabriel-era Genesis, ELP, 70s Yes, and 70s Rush (Geddy Lee was a huge influence on Cliff).
