Somebodyangry Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 The song is already out on every streaming platform. As it’s been said multiple times, it’s not one of the strongest on the album but it’s not bad, the instrumental bridge is very cool and something reminds me of Castle of Glass. Overall, still pretty good, waiting for the album 😍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overall, still pretty good, waiting for the album 😍 Yeah its not bad, but I prefer the original one, maybe the synths/keyboard make that CoG resemblance. The one thing that bothers me is that they seems to only have 1 concert footage and they are using it for all or most of the videos/promos, etc. I wish they had more live performance videos so they could mix it up and not display some scenes that might not belong to the song they are performing. Btw, did Chester left GD to join LP ? (I dont think so, maybe Im wrong) but thats what people over DownloadFestival TV claimed before the video premier.

hahninator Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Grey Daze broke up. Chester auditioned for other bands. Nothing worked out. Then he got a call to try out for LP. He did not leave GD for LP. Just another misinterpretation (maybe deliberately by the band, feeding this stuff to the press). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazatan Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Yes that was my understanding too, but just wanted to double check that fact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Somebodyangry Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Yeah he auditioned LP after GD broke up, but I remember Sean saying it correctly in many IG Lives and interviews Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah probably, I remember Sean saying multiple times that the band broke up after a nightmarish show where some people came on stage beating one of the band member (Maybe Mace or the other guy who’s not in the band anymore) and after that show they had really harsh discussions and split up and Chester auditioned for LP.

DystopianBy Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 (edited) In video of B12 there's no Mace and line from TV report that he got in motorcycle crash at 2:34 Edited June 12, 2020 by DystopianBy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pablobitter Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 I prefer the original. I feel that in this new version the essence of the song was lost, it's the only one I didn't like so far on the album Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morei Sky is stellar, THB I quite enjoy this version of B12 the more I listen to it. It has less energy than the original but I really like the bridge. Anyway, it’s the weakest track on the album on par with What’s In the Eye IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really Iike parts of the song especially the bridge and the distorted backing vocals in the last part, even tho the verses seem disjointed by the rest of the song.

I'm kinda skeptical with this whole project, but I always listen to every new released track. Original B12 is my favorite Grey Daze song, but this one is very weird in a bad way to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you didn’t join the listening parties, the songs they didn’t release are great, especially “She Shines” and “The Syndrome”. As I said multiple times, I’m super into the project because I always thought GD songs needed better production and instrumentation, and I probably will never listen to the original songs anymore, even tho I liked them. This is probably a project I’ve been wanting since I found out GD more than 10 years ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreyFox-AFCA Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 I hoped i would like it, but the “hoora,hooray!” Parts makes me cringe trough my bones. first song on this album that i will never fully listen to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 They took this song and shit on it more than words can ever explain. I can try to explain how big of a shit it was but I would run out of space on the internet. I'm not hooraying and hoora-ing for this garbage. The only Grey Daze song I liked.

Somebodyangry Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 Still better than the Disney motivational cringefest of songs like Prove You Wrong or Ghosts, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prove you wrong is not a bad song at all, but i feel like you are big Mike hater so no point in arguing really. You know what is really cringy? using a dead person´s son to mumble in a song used to milk his fathers legacy, now that is cringy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know what is really cringy? using a dead person´s son to mumble in a song used to milk his fathers legacy, now that is cringy I’m really not a Mike hater, I saw him on the PT tour and I like some stuff on the album, I’m talking about quality, and I think the new GD project is great quality, not talking about what surrounds the project. Mike is an awesome human being and great musician but I his solo music is not exactly my taste, especially Empty songs like prove you wrong Can I compare songs ? Promises I can’t Keep is amazing, Over Again is hard to listen but really honest and true, IOU is super fun, but I think Ghosts PYW and CAL are pretty dull. On the other side I love the grunge meets 2000s alt rock GD have To Amends and I think some songs are among my favorite Chester-related projects ever (Soul Song being the best example of my idea of “great song”). Never meant to insult Mike, in the exact same way as many of you don’t mean to offend the band when they call songs like SIB or BID “garbage”, that‘a all.😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PizzaPino Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 They probably let Korn butcher this song out of respect (and marketing for their name). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diaux Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 Honestly i don't think is that bad, Is my favorite from all of the singles, The instrumental bridge sound like Do I Wanna Know by Arctic Monkeys but with a synth instead of a guitar. It still feels weird hearing all of the electronic elements or the overproduction on this song and the rest of the album especially compared to the original material which was very raw. And yes they are over using the same live footage over and over again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
