Amazing song! This might be one of their best songs ever. And they have quite alot of great songs. Fletch will be proud up there in heaven.

Good stuff, though I'm not quite as enamored on first listen. And Martin Gore really should have used more lotion on his face over the years...

Cool and fun album. Kai Hansen for the win! Catchy songs.

The opening song is a fun rocker with a Primal Fear vibe, ''Enemies Of Fun'' is a cool Accept-esque song, ''Making Headlines'' has an interesting chorus, ''Stranger In Time'' is classic Gamma Ray with great verses/chorus, ''Fire And Ice'' has a really strong instumental section and ''Follow The Sun'' is another good power metal song.

Surfer Rosa by Pixies is an all time Top 10 album for me. Produced by none other than Steve Albini.

He might have gone potty lately (to put it mildly), but he is still a fantastic singer.

 

[GhostofCain]

Not too bad, but nothing beats the original version.

I hadn’t listened to it for a very long time. For me it’s more of a curiosity than something I’d get excited to listen to, though. There are a few strong tracks (“Born Free”, “Stranger In Time”, “Follow The Sun”), but Hansen’s voice sounds more busted than usual, a lot of the songs feel half-baked, there’s some alternative influence in the songwriting, and there are a few tracks with a sprinkling of black and death metal vocals, which don’t fit Hansen’s core sound at all.
