I'm sure you've already seen this.

I don't think the vocals work with the music, hopefully they get heavier or faster or something.....idk

As you said, the vocals don't work.

Also:
1. It has the desire for heaviness, yet doesn't actually feel heavy.
2. Riffs?
3. Stop grimacing bitches. This ain't that hard.
4. Riffs?
5. That ending pose / sticker. Meh.

There's elements there that should work together, but somehow the the sum of it is less than all the parts, if that makes sense. Try again, Ellefson.

I had heard Dave was going in a more mellow direction but I guess not. Just when you think ol Dave is going soft he puts out a video where he shows just how hard he can be. Its a little short at 3:15, which is fine but most probably prefer it a little longer.

So yeah, Dave is still hard, just a little on the short side.

I don't have an issue with the song or vocals but the production is not helping. The guitars sound too squashed in the mix and not heavy at all. If they recorded this with a proper heavy guitar tone the song would've worked out better.

Vox are actually pretty cool. A little different but work well. The music has its moments. Not sumthin I really dig but it’s solid. For one song, I’ll at least listen to the next one to see if this is closer to their high water mark or it actually gets better from here
