Just because the one original song on this single doesn't sound like anything on Source Tags and Codes doesn't mean they've sold out, or that they suck now, or anything. So you don't like the new song. Big deal. The fact that at least 2 reviewers think that Trail of Dead will never be the same based on ONE song is ridiculous!
I had the pleasure of seeing Trail of Dead live not too long ago. They still rock just as hard as they ever did. The new song is pretty good live to. It's played with a 12 string...
Another new song they played live is a song called "Will You Smile Again". In fact, they opened with this song. You think they don't rock hard anymore? Download this song, if you can. Then tell me they don't rock just as hard as before.
And a word about the covers. As a person who owns all their other singles, I feel I can say that their singles is where Trail of Dead like to experiment the most. They have songs on there that don't sound like anything else they've ever done, and if you're an idiot - like a couple of these past reviewers - you can get really freaked out, and go "oh no, Trail of Dead isn't the same anymore!" Or you can say, "interesting...I wonder how this off-shoot experimentation will affect thier next album." And frankly, if you expect a band, especially one like Trail of Dead to sound like one album forever, you're a moron and shouldn't be allowed to listen to good music.
In conclusion, no "Worlds Apart" doesn't sound like anything off of Source Tags and Codes. That makes me excited about the new album to see how they're going to surprise me and make me think about what they choose to do with their music this time around. Other people think they've sold out because they don't sound the same forever. Unless you're a hardcore fan who likes to pick up all their singles just to hear those songs that didn't make it on an album, it's probably not a necessary buy. If you are that person (like me), go ahead and pick this one up. I don't think you'll be disappointed. And if you think the new album is going to sound like Source Tags and Codes, don't buy it. If you think it's going to be a sell out record, buy it and be proven wrong.
it's a shame.
but, hey, it's the 'logical progession' theory in affect.
ToD's been getting better every release, this is the first where they don't. sadly, the lack of Neil Busch seems to have made the band think that they're some sort of prog-rawk band...
it's sad that this band, esp. after ST&C's would release something so...bland and seemingly uninspired.
Where did the hardcore go? The mashing guitars and complex noise harmonies? This single is more like late 80's/early 90's synth pop.
