Devil's Child, Night Crawler, Alone, and then everything from the new shit except for Cold Blooded, Beginning Of The End and Tears Of Blood.

I'm only voting for first 3 for promotion sakes, otherwise they are 10000 times better than anything from Redeemer. And even the songs from Redeemer I didn't vote for are bad, I just had to pick some songs for promotion :)
 
...I've actually not listened to Redeemer yet. I just voted for Vengeance and Touch Of Evil for promotions.
 
I feel the best songs are Dragonaut, Down in Flames, Battle Cry, Tears of Blood. There's a few other decent songs in there. but overall the album is somewhat average.
 
I think it's a good mid tier Priest album. I didn't go in expecting much, since I think the days of Priest putting out great albums is far behind them, I just wanted to hear some fun classic sounding metal tracks. With that in mind, I think they delivered. It's very consistent too IMO, only a few songs I don't like much and even then nothing on the album is offensively bad.
 
That's true. There's nothing too bad, but I find that there's a truckload of mid-paced songs on the album, with very few faster or slower. A little variety in the speed of tracks wouldn't hurt, cause there's definitely point where things just meld together.
 
Can't share the love for Tears of Blood. Without being able to literally point them out, the song feels as if it combines ideas already heard on other Redeemer songs. I find Secrets of the Dead much more special with more own identity, with interesting rhythm patterns and chorus staying in my head. Hell and Back is also better imo. Some fantastic heavy parts in there.
 
Secrets of the Dead is one that has definitely grown on me.
It's just got a kind of eerie, otherworldly vibe going on there — heavy, but somehow remote at the same time.
Sword of Damocles is another one that doesn't seem to get much attention, but stands out for me.

I like the album. It's not remarkable, just solid and consistent, with a style that is very much in my wheelhouse.

Who the hell is voting for Electric Eye with all these new songs still on the board?

Is the plan to do this like The Ripper and Freewheel Burning? Eliminate an older, virtually essential classic while the rest of us are looking at the new stuff? This survivor is already 99% BS as is. If another classic goes away for no good reason, I'm checking out.
 
Has it never occurred to you that other people might actually prefer the other songs (to the ones you listed) on those albums? Additionally, why are you complaining now when Electric Eye has had at least a single vote in every single round since it came into the poll, and currently it's not even that close to elimination? It feels like you are complaining just for the sake of it.
