| I pre-ordered the CD and the download links were sent Friday night. Grabbed it Saturday and put on my phone but I don't know any of the song titles, for some reason they are on my phone as "unknown artist" and listed as "Track 1", etc. No big deal because I have the songs.
It sounds really good, I am pleased. It reminds me of Broad Is The Gate in style but I like it better than Broad. Still like Hell Blade and Desperate Night better but this is a very good album. Will get tons of plays when I have time | |

| This album reminds me a lot of Desperate Night. The new singer reminds me of John Corabi (Motley Crue). The opening track feels like they were going for that vibe, and then the album kicks in to the Saint style. The new singer doesn't sound like Josh, but he fits their sound overall. I am diggin' the new record! _________________ I might have decided, or maybe not, that I should or shouldn't, depending on the issue or non-issue, to possibly share or not share, any thoughts, opinions, or facts (that might not be deemed factual by some), due to possible fear of any misinterpretation or retribution. https://christianhardmusic.niceboard.com/ | |

| John Corabi is a good comparison from what I've been able to hear so far. Sounds good to my ears. | |

Mine too! I will miss Josh, but I think the new singer will be a good fit. _________________ I might have decided, or maybe not, that I should or shouldn't, depending on the issue or non-issue, to possibly share or not share, any thoughts, opinions, or facts (that might not be deemed factual by some), due to possible fear of any misinterpretation or retribution. https://christianhardmusic.niceboard.com/ | |

| I've listened through the entire album multiple times now. First impression is that this is a great Saint release that will take its place alongside the classic Saint albums.
I think the new vocalist has a perfect voice for this band. He reminds me a lot of Josh Kramer while not sounding like a clone. He can hit all the notes - high and low - and has a general mid-range, rough-edged voice that fits Saint perfectly.
The thing that stands out here, to me, is the songwriting. There is some classic-sounding Saint here, to be sure. But there's some new kinds of arrangements and sounds that are not classic Saint, but still sound good. Other than "God is God", I don't know the songs well enough to name ones I think have this different sound, but it's all over the place.
Side note - anyone else hear the similarity between at the beginning of "Fine Line" and the Scorpions' "Pictured Life"? I don't mean that it's a ripoff; it's more like Saint wearing their influences on their sleeve. I really like it.
I feel like Saint has changed their sound just a little bit. If you like recent Saint albums, I think you'll really enjoy this one too. It's not a radical change. But I really appreciate the tweaks they've worked in here and there.
Time will tell, but I suspect this may well be my favorite of the post-reunion albums. It's tough to top Hell Blade, but this just might do it. | |

I don't think Fine Line and Pictured Life sound all that similar other than a little guitar trill in the opening sequence. | |

| This is quickly becoming a favorite Saint record. This is probably the best produced, mixed, and mastered Saint album. “Rise” is, so far, my favorite track. The slow chug of “Fine Line” is pretty awesome too. There’s not a bad song here. I hope this sells really well for them. | |

| I agree, might be a top three album by them. | |

| It is the best non-Josh disc. I am almost to the point of calling it the best Saint album. _________________ I might have decided, or maybe not, that I should or shouldn't, depending on the issue or non-issue, to possibly share or not share, any thoughts, opinions, or facts (that might not be deemed factual by some), due to possible fear of any misinterpretation or retribution. https://christianhardmusic.niceboard.com/ | |
