I can't really decide fully. I like it and then I don't. Musically I like it better. Maybe it's just I can't stand James' vocals and delivery. Just isn't doing if or me.

I want to like it but I just kinda can't get into it.

Usually I like Lars drumming a lot, I'm not a hater of his, but something about the drums in this song irritate me. I like a few of the guitar riffs in the middle, but then I agree with Alex that overall the vocals seems sort of childish and the whole thing feels forced.

Reminds me of a potential song being jammed by a band that hasn't yet worked out what they want to do with it and it's not quite working yet.

Hopefully the album has stuff that's more developed and nuanced.

I believe they can still do great stuff, but to me this one feels sort of rushed and not quite right.

Lars hits on trash cans. it has been the case since abomination called St. Anger. Riffs are reheashed and recycled.

This is very bad. Guns` have chance to curb stomp shitallica if they decide to do something.

I'm digging both tunes very much. Excited for the album. Just wish they didn't move Lords of Summer to the bonus tracks. That song looked like it had potential for something bigger on the actual track list.
