Am I the only one...?
I've only listened to the 3 songs once each so far.
I really, really liked all three of them on first listen. They sound lively to me, and overall very melodic. To me they sounded vibrant. They honestly sounded like among the best and most vibrant stuff he's recorded in a long while. They sounded up-beat and glam rock-ish, but not as uninspired as some of the more up-beat rock songs on for example Years of refusal and Ringleader of the tormentors sound nowadays.
When I came here today looking for other people's reactions on them, it really seemed like we had heard totally different songs...I'm surprised to see that so many seem to really dislike the songs?
So...is there anyone more than me who instantly really liked the songs when they heard them the first time?
Maybe I really liked them since I didn't expect that much from him after Years of refusal, which I never really got into (except for a few songs) for some reason. I don't know...I might not like them as much on repeated listens, who knows. The future will tell. All I know now is that I instantly liked them, and that I was surprised to see that so many people didn't seem to like them at all.
