Post subject:  Communic - Payment of Existence

Communic are releasing their 3rd album in May.
I recently discoverd this band and I´m totally hooked to Conspiracy in Mind.
Hopefully this will be great record once again.

From the Nuclear Blast website:

COMMUNIC have finished the artwork for their new album "Payment Of Existence", which will contain eight Tracks.

01. On Ancient Ground
02. The Abandoned One
03. Becoming Of Man
04. Payment Of Existence
05. Through The Labyrinth Of Years
06. Raven's Cry
07. Unpredictables Of Life
08. Stone Carved Eyes

"This time we believe that we have created our most diverse and heavy stuff ever, but it is still COMMUNIC all the way", the band says about the new release. "It has been two years since the release of "Waves..." and the energy from touring and live gigging has left a few marks on this new album. The production by Jacob Hansen is crisp and fresh, and takes our sound to a new level, while the artwork by Jan Yrlund just completes it all as it fits the theme and atmosphere of this album perfectly." "Payment Of Existence" will be released on May 30th!"

... although, I'm not sure the new Draconian is going to give up its spot in the home-stereo system.
:cool:

I love their two first albums, no reason why this shouldn't rule too.

Lets hope those 8 songs aren't 7 minutes each or longer. The band simply needs to write songs that are shorter more memorable stuff if they are gonna write songs the way they do. This band really needs a good producer to help them make the most of their skills instead of relying on repetition and meandering through long-ass thrash with little memorability or substance.

I completely disagree. I think their previous CD is very memorable and the song lengths are perfect. I seriously love every moment of that CD...
Just another opinion.
:wink:

I agree with Clint. Although they write some long songs, they absolutely stick. A song does not need to be short to be memorable.

No, that isn't the point. My point is that Communic songs are too long.

As I said in my review at rateyour music I listened to this album about 5 times in the span of a couple weeks and when I listened to it again I felt as though I hadn't heard any of this before really, with the exception of the incredible opening song, that is. But that is hardly memorable in my book.
