I started school yesterday.
And I've only heard Hail To The King off the new album. I actually really dig that guitar part thats in the intro and throughout the song, but everything else isn't that great. I don't like the way M. Shadows changed his singing style, its not evident that Zacky Vengeance is even still in the band because there are no guitar harmonies, and obviously they decided to replace The Rev with someone who doesn't really know how to play the drums. My overall impression is that they wanted more fans so they toned down the metal and are trying to go more mainstream radio rock. I don't know how well thats going to work out for them.
