Ah man, this band has stepped it up. mixing technically, melody, and brutality all in one.

Is this the 3 song promo?

Yeah it's that one. Never heard the whole thing before now. It's really great. Hopefully the full length will be even better.

Somehow these songs aren't quite clicking for me in terms of the writing/structure, but I probably just need to listen more.

nah... its not doing it for me. they need to make up their mind in terms of what they want to accomplish. be brutal, be melodic, be overly technical... i mean... random bullshit pieced together awkwardly while at first is entertaining... ends up being really fucking annoying. its like Psyopus... so much bullshit going on thats amazing to watch live but is pretty much unlistenable on cd.

granted that this DB promo is listenable... its just annoying

I'd have to totally disagree. I've listened to this probably 5-6 times and still haven't gotten my head around it, not because its random, because the writing structure is so complex it takes many many listens to apreesh. Assuming your a fan of ..ATB, Matt hasn't changed much in song structure, instead of flowing ultra br00tal riffs together he chose to try and move away from the norm and use death esq influence as a part of his writing. If anything for me at least, ..ATB is a lot harder to listen to than this. Oh well, to each his own.
