 Re: Chapter V; Unbent, Unbowed, Unbroken
Listen to the lyrical content - It has taken a drastic turn. All of a sudden you hear a lot more about 'infrared' and surveillance, etc... The sort of thing you hear from cheesey, and frankly amateur power metal bands like Dragonland, or Freedom Call. As a native English speaker I suspect I pick it up a bit more, but I can't help but think it's just a bit silly. I don't know, I guess it's become slightly more judgemental The difference between style - they're trying to become more serious and it's reflected in the sound, but on CV they were still developing it, so it sounds pretty weak, imo.

 Re: Chapter V; Unbent, Unbowed, Unbroken
Chapter V was a big downstep for me. Apart from Knights of the 21st Century I actually can't remember a song. Nothing managed to stay in my mind -that's something that would have never happened with the former albums. Even Knights took me quite a while to start to like it, but now I think it's pretty good - if you cut off Shagrath's bathroom noises

 Re: Chapter V; Unbent, Unbowed, Unbroken
I'm aware of that, dearie. I was pointing out the similarities between intros. Read again: It's kinda like the start of Legion

 Re: Chapter V; Unbent, Unbowed, Unbroken
Ok, you got me there. But hey, I don't know Legion. Atm I'm too broken to afford No Sacrifice, No Victory, so that has to wait a while longer

Casted my vote for "Secrets".
It´s a fast song. Love fast metal songs. It´s a great live song as well.
