    There aren't many (any) really slow ballads or anything like say River Cross or Just Breathe.

    No real ballads something special was probably the slowest/least rocking but not a ballad

    Were there any riff driven songs or mainly heavy chord songs?

    The last track, Setting Sun

    Is it worthy of a PJ last track ( Throw out River Cross/Future Days/ The End) as to me those are clearly weaker than previous ones

    My personal opinion is most people won't like half this album. And i didn't hear anything that was like old pj. Just my ta.

    I love dark matter and running is ok  scared of fear you will like if you like this style.  Wreckage had an appeal and to me had a daughter vibe. I don't know man it all blurs fast. I know me personally though at least 4 songs weren't for me at first listen but hey some songs take some time. Just not a fan of the slower cheese or petty style myself

    i think when Ed said "its our best work" that also plays into how we filter the songs early on listening, expectations for this one are thru the roof

    Agreed. I know he loves it and is proud  so thats all that matters to him
     Fair enough . I respectfully disagree

    I think both Dark Matter and Running are good songs but the snippet from Something Special sounds a bit cheesy. What would you say my odds are of liking the album as a whole?
    Something special was the only cheesy one really

    Ed explained how much a fan watt is/was. And how he was born as release was released so watt was released at the same time😁. But with watt being such a fan and musician im very surprised with how this turned out.

    I would try not to get hung up on production.  You may disagree with some choices but if Watt doesn’t produce the album and get the guys all in a room then the album never exists in the first place.
