The Official After the Burial Thread: All things ATB!

[Hypothermia]

Crappiest production i have heared in a while.
I mean, the mixing is alright but the drum sound, bass tone and the overall mix. It feels hollow and empty.
I'm not a big ATB fan but i like some tracks from Rareform but this release felt more like an Unearth/All that remains album with 8 strings.

Also, felt kind of cheap with so few songs.

That's actually exactly what I liked about it.

My new favorite breakdown is in Carry You Away in the middle. Especially when they start rocking the SUPER low drop Eb. And Trent's lead part after, although its simple, is so smooth.

Sounds good to me. I still haven't picked it up, waiting for the show on Sunday to grab it, but I'll give it a good listen through and throw in my

So, i got my copy of After The Burial's new album, "In Dreams" last night. Overall, i'm not really sure what to think of it. I loved Rareform, and how it was basically all breakdown based, and in this album it seems like they strayed away from that quite a bit. It reminds me of Parkway Drive alot, which is sad, because they only use 6 string guitars, when ATB uses 8. And the singing.... It's just not ATB's style. The album seems lack-luster to me. Or maybe i'm crazy. If you think i'm crazy, i'd love to hear what you like about the album, because After The Burial is one of my favorite bands of all time, and it's dissapointing that they would make me wait 2 years for a 30 minutes mediocre album.

I thought they played in F Standard?

They do, but in that particular song they drop that F a whole step to Eb.

Yum.

The last track sounds like a 2010 Pantera

I kinda thought it was more of a nu-metal influence.... Then again, I don't listen to Pantera

OH ok... That part also makes me go So deep, I was wondering if anyone played in drop D#(Eb, what you will), and I can see it sounds just fine

 

[heineken_fretwalker]

I can say with 100% confidence, Encased in Ice sounds absolutely nothing like Pantera.

God damnit, I had no idea this was out yesterday. I'll have to pick it up tonight then.

 

[heineken_fretwalker]

Merch connection is now officially on my list. I didn't purchase the post order package, and I damn sure didn't drop fifty bucks for it to arrive several days after the release date. I demand their heads and that the streets run red with their blood. However, I am a reasonable man and will settle for some sort of store credit

Yes, go get it now. Btdubb, your sig rules. It forced me to sing it aloud at work just now.

No, but I was lucky enough that my sister bought it off itunes and burned me a copy. Which package did you get?

I haven't even received a notice that it's shipped.

Me neither. I find the lack of notification disturbing.

I have not received my pre-order or a notification that it shipped either.
