    Based on the studio recording clips I've seen, I still have very high hopes for this album. I agree with some of the comments saying it sounds a bit generic (and not really like Monuments), but has anyone else noticed that this is what metal labels usually do when a band is about to release an album? They usually release the most "generic sounding" song first because they know it is likely to have the widest appeal. Then when the album comes out, it's full of more original and awesome songs. This was the case with Periphery's last album, and I think it will be the case with this album too. My only real criticism is that I can't hear the guitars very well. For example, I know that there is some interesting guitar work going on during 0:54 to 1:04, but I can barely hear it. It just sounds like it's getting drowned out by everything else, and overall, everything sounds quite muddy. The quality in The Amanuensis was much clearer, BUT, I will withhold full judgement until the album comes out! Positive thinking, because I think this album has the potential to be great! (UPDATE: The album KICKS ASS! It's amazing! I knew it would be!)

    • @CheeseLord
      @CheeseLord 6 лет назад +4

      yep, singles bring in general interest which is why I'm crossing my fingers hoping that the album is going to bring it. those studio clips are pure comedy and musical gold. if you close your eyes and think about john browne for long enough this honestly sounds better

    • @Benadon
      @Benadon 6 лет назад +4

      and they can still redo this song like plini did with salt and charcoal, album version of it had a clearer more complex drums and bass sound and tone... hopefully it will happen.

    • @iambedlam
      @iambedlam 6 лет назад +4

      So I agree with you on this, however I felt like Amanuensis was really harsh on the ears after a while. I do enjoy how much smoother and cleaner the overall sound is on this track. Could def use more guitars. Good song though!

    • @ryana6961
      @ryana6961 6 лет назад +3

      Yeah that's where I'm torn. The Amanuensis sounded amazing, but something about the aggressive tone would cause me to need a break from John Browne's sound for a while because I'd literally be getting head aches. It wasn't because I felt that things were monotonous or sounded bad, it was more that the sharp guitar tones would physically bother me after a while no matter how much I love the music. On top of that, the album was mixed in a way that emphasized that harsh tone even more. I guess you could say I have a love/hate relationship with the album.

    • @Magmoormaster
      @Magmoormaster 6 лет назад +2

      Totally agree with everything said here, look at the first single from PIII, The Price is Wrong. Not only is it a very bland song, it's not indicative of the album at all. From the studio updates, I have high hopes as well. I'm sure it'll be sick.
      I agree that Amanuensis sounds really harsh. I've gotten used to it by now, having listened to it a bunch. But it definitely causes some ear fatigue at first.

  • @drifthabitat
    @drifthabitat 6 лет назад +2

    What I love about Monuments is the guitar work (I love chris too). I'm having a hard time fully enjoying this song due to not being able to hear guitars. I hear vocals and atmosphere and a faint muddy rumble of the guitars. I'm quite dissapointed by this but I will stay optimistic. I hope the other tracks have guitars more up front and center rather than an after thought in the mix.

    Congrats on the release guys but I have to say: that is one scooped mix, heavy emphasis on the high end and low-low-mid. Not too bothered about vocals in general so I'd love an instrumental but that's asking a lot.
