defskull

All I have to say is the guest appearances sound so awesome.  It's an ingenious concept and I look forward to hearing it.

theis

I've never been able to get into the "barking" vocals. It annoys the shit out of me. The music itself is great though.

Paint Your Lips

I crave the new album badly ! I can't wait. Can't wait to play the vinyl for the first time.

Alvar

cant wait for the new shit. and so many interesting guests...

The streets have gone dark. They've been dark for days. We board up the house. Hide upstairs and wait!

ben

the vocals are one of the best parts. NO ONE sounds like Bannon.

bright lights, big city

Definitely, ben. This will be an interesting album. It is normal to see the occasional guest on a hardcore/metal album, but to bring in entire bands, and enough guests to fill up the album? It could revolutionary, or it could be awkward. But I'm leaning toward the former just because of fucking Genghis Tron.

Oldnewtype

Converge will always have a place in my top few favorite, most influential bands of all time.

And I agree with Ben, Bannon is awesome because of his vocal approach. Have you ever tried to match the vocals with the lyrics on Jane Doe? You can't. I love it.

Damn, just listened to their new song Dark Horse. Sounds totally different from their other stuff...especially vocally. Kickass song, I must say.

EDIT: Anyone got "Dark Horse" as mp3? Wow, this song is so good.

ben

He uses those vocals a lot in You Fail Me and sometimes in No Heroes.  You should re-listen to those albums, they seriously are wonderful.

theis

I think I might do that then.

bright lights, big city

Dark Horse is almost as good as Fault And Fracture and Eagles Become Vultures. almost.

Very few can make such killer riffs like kurt. He never seizes to amaze me.

Dark Horse is perfect. Can't wait to hear the album in its entirety.

Dark Horse mp3.

This song is seriously blowing my mind.
The instrumental side is beyond perfection, but I hope Bannon gets some more high pitched screams in the mix on the rest of the albums. And I'm kinda afraid that the whole collaboration idea could break the album. But, we'll just have to wait and see. It worked wonders on Grim Heart/Black Rose with Jonah, though

Thanks for the link.

bright lights, big city

yeeeeah theis! way to take initiative! thanks buddy
