New Velocity - opinions.....

Well, I downloaded the Velocity track from the forthcoming (well, sort of forthcoming since it will take a long time) CD....
Very disappointing. For Velocity standards at least. Quite heavy, and very grungy in flavor. Un-melodic riffing. Things get better in the chorus, and even then it becomes decent, maybe borderline ok but nothing beyond that. Could've come from one of those rock grunge bands, for certain, and bears no resemblance to "Impact". Maybe it's a grower?
For all his railining against grunge in "Riot Going On", that's what David Victor has offered up...I wouldn't mind at all if this were the experimental track off the new album - as it is many artists are offering up one or two "modern-flavored" tracks for the sake of variety.
But a whole album like this, I would definitely not buy. This will not do, no sirree....
Cheers,
Jack.
