hey, i totally understand what you mean when you're talking about the new soad album.
it's always the same problem, "rebel music gets picked up by commercial stations and gets kinda spoilt".
and you are totally right about music coming before lyrics: damn it, on the new record one of the songs has a chorus that says "gonorreah gorgonzola", it makes no friggin sense! but it all fits the music at that time. but i am annoyed by it a bit, i love singing, and i'm gonna hate having to sing about gonorreah and gorgonzola!!!
mind you, they also manage to make you dance and sing to a chorus that goes "violent pornography, choking girls and sodomy"
damn,can't wait to listen to the album at home, it's one month to go now.
by the way, to answer your question if they're gonna include more middle-eastern music: yeah, there are more and more hints of it in the new songs, you should particularly expect something interesting out of "radio/video", which is a totally ethnic song (a lot like GORAN BREGOVIC, if you know who this slavian artist is), with some metal melodies intertwined in this far-east structure... very fascinating.
i am sure you'll end up liking the album. just like 600.000.000 people will
