@Stan: yes, the riff sounds a bit like Enter Sandman but in a Deep Purple-ish way. Nothing to complain about,

Nice catchy riff, good effects on Bruce vocals, everything is good - straightforward short stuff. A good song to grab an audience/.

 

[Gk1]

Well, people who want to wait will hear the song in a proper sound quality as well.

 

[WickerMan601]

Hang in there, guys. I admire your dedication. As a stickler for sound quality I should have waited too. It won't be long until I can get the CD single tomorrow.

 

[Shavasku]

After listening to this, I can only say that the wait for the album is going to be ridiculously tough. Can we make it?
