After a couple listens I still don't have an opinion.

Re: Superblood Wolfmoon
Imagine how bad this would be with BOB's hands all over it? I know its a low bar but him not being involved has already elevated this album to mediocre. Eddie's vocals are rough on this one, but at least i can listen to the damn song without physical pain. The mix is finally back where it's supposed to be.
I'm not going to get all worked up about how bad this song is. We knew there were going to be straight forward rock songs. This is one of them. It's fine to me. I'm enjoying it for what it is.

Re: Superblood Wolfmoon
after more listens, this is a 3/5 star song. I had 4/5 but a few more listens in convinced me to downgrade.

Re: Superblood Wolfmoon
I'm deadly serious when I say I think Can't Deny Me is a way better song than this. The song get's unbridled hate, but I actually think the main riff and Ed's combined vocal line (And now you want me to breeatthe) is actually pretty clever. It's catchy. The call and response part was pretty much a fail, but overall I find the verses and chorus to be pretty catchy on CDM.
On Superblood, Ed's vocal melody is basically riding the riff in the same melody. There's no real COUNTER melody, which he's always been good at. He's always been clever at finding a good counter melody to a riff that wouldn't be so instant to anyone else. But on this song, he's just riding the generic riff til the wheels fall off. (In The deestance, ugh) He did this better on The Getaway. Not to mention a song like Save You is leagues above this.

Re: Superblood Wolfmoon
I think the prediction version had a more clever idea than wtf Ed went for on this. It's literally the most basic chord riff you can think off with the same melody on top.Ms Harmless wrote:it's worse than the actual song and this singer is worse than Ed
The riff from the snippet is actually the strongest part and had potential, but he just fucked it.

on the prediction song, I think the intro riff is cool but then it goes chug chug into a verse riff that nobody sings over for two bars, and I hate when songs do that

Re: Superblood Wolfmoon
Yeah, I don't know how many of you play guitar but this power chord progression and how it's played is just so simple and predictable it's insulting

I hated the snippet and then the full version managed to fuck it up even more lol.

I would bet money that this song is a left over from Backspacer.
