Born of Osiris have new songs that are made of win!!!:lol: at the end of one of them they even have a little gangsta beat its pretty awsome..but in all seriousness they are brutal as fuck..and using 7 string i assume!! i can tell by the tuning i think sounds to low to be coming from a 6. not quite sure. I am sure not disappointing tho BOO represent

NO DUDE. They Play Drop C so you cannot play this tuning on a 7string ;)
It's a 6string ;)
P.S. ...old news

thats what it thought too, its just the rapidness and palming of the instrument that make it sound so low. sick dudes, and i beleive the keyboardist does more vocals on this album. at least to my ears it sounds like it

At first I couldn't dig the lack of bass in the new BOO album. But after a couple listens it reaaally grew on me. Songs like Now Arise, Exist, Put To Rest and An Ascent are radical. I like the random black metal parts as well.

I love love love the album. You hear the bass better on various stereos, but the drums and rhythm guitar tone are very low mid/bass heavy as well, i found. The bass is definitely there, just not prominent. Once you know what to listen for it's like "oh, there it is. still weak though."

Hell i was listening to the album through laptop speakers yesterday, and heard a harmony i've never heard before - and i listened to the CD 2 times a day 4-5 days a week for 2 weeks lol.

I asked the guitarist what tuning they use, Im pretty sure it's actually a variation on drop C? This was this past winter or spring though.

My thoughts exactly, TBH. It grew on me a lot after the second and third spin.

I was looking for a picture of that 7!


I love the new album personally. It's a great album to listen to when walking at night. While the melodies on A Higher Place are amazing, I don't think the riffs are as cool as A New Reign.

the part that annoys me is that this band is isnt really a band at all but 2 or 3 guys putting it all together..

the drummer writes all the guitar parts.


on the 1st cd, he recorded all the drums and guitars(both rhythm/leads) himself...maybe even the bass too...

pretty sure he did a majority on this album too....


hate that

Agreed they seemed more creative in the first album imo.

More creative with the riffs is where I stand.
On the new album I think the leads and melodies are amazing. They make the album for me.


The first album is a much better live album though. Nothing gets a crowd moving more than Bow Down. Nothing.
