I think this is one of the worst things I've ever voluntarily listened to.

Album's shaping up great!

I think I’ll find comfort with spenno during this album release.

Egads! Someone alert rockpusher...I think the bass tone on that clip is wildly inappropriate.

that's why it's interesting, imo

if every element of this song sounded "appropriate" to what a song like this is "supposed to do", we would be crying out for Something Weird

Sure...that is true...I'll say it sounds downright shitty, then....I like King Diamond...I'm glad Jeff does, too, but...it's an awful creative choice, imo, to use the "metal" amp modeling pre-set on an overly saccharine prom song.

"the tweeisted wheewww..." oh my god.. Ed has the most annoying enunciation to me, and I just can't get past it. Why can't he say a simple word like "wheel" normally?

"speeciooohhohhh"

it's just painful to listen to.. it's like he doesn't know how to breathe and is trying so hard to get all the words out in time but forgot how to say some of them correctly.. not pleasant

I'm really not hearing much of the problematic enunciation in this one, tbh. Ed sounds good to me.

Pronunciation/enunciation issues are really being blown out of proportion with regard to these 30 seconds.

I listened to the clip a few more times and I still hate it, but I also agree with this.

You didn't answer my question...Does it sound GOOD to you?
Sounds more like the onset of a stroke to me.
