YES!
:D   :D   :D   :D   :D

Alas, something to savour while waiting for the new album to drop!

Love, love, LOVE the "End of Days" song and video!  Was surprised, in an extremely ecstatic way, to discover that they made it a lyrics video!  I particularly love how they (was it you Mr. White, who put together this wonderful video?) worked in, fused the incredibly powerful elements of both fire AND water together - made them appear as though one and the same, like brethren / siblings.  The two opposites (fire & water), via the video's visuals and fluidity / movement within it, actually reveal to us that the two often-times-healing, yet, potentially-destructive elements are quite similar, indeed -  possess similar traits, characteristics, that normally, one wouldn't pick up on, or even realise, in day-to-day life - how brilliant!  Wonderfully done, kudos!  8)

Thank YOU NMA!  Only 2 months and 2 days away, now... woo-hoo!!!  I can hardly wait!   :D  :D  :D  :D  :D

It's never the same NMA listening experience unless the walls start breathing, and the nails start poppin' out of 'em floorboards, eh?  ;)  Well, in my experience anyway!  :D  Sounds as though you've got the best sound set up so far... damn sweet!  8)

Lyrics are top stuff, not over-impressed by the music so far but that may change.
Still, I'm looking forward to the album...very much  :D

Listened to it at work, a co-worker was with me and he really enjoyed it. A new fan in the making  8)
Tonight, as you stare at the ceiling again
With your lover turning away
Disappointment closing in
Like the walls... and you try...
You try to talk about love
And they put their arms around you
But you still feel all alone
Wonder why...

Me either. As alway, the lyrics are very complex, I like the reference to  the book 1984, but I struggle a bit with the musical part. Some moments - it throws me completely out the song. The other so far known song "Wait and see" is more straight and angry. But maybe it still grows and many of the live interpretations differ a bit from the studio versions.

I loved first listen. Like the classic NMA of old bass line. Video is very good also. Great stuff, very pleased  ;)
The longer this century goes on, the more I feel I belong in the last one.

Ah, I do love it when a track or two drops before the album comes out... kind of like a starter before the main meal... and this starter is very tasty indeed!   :D

I thinks as always a progression from what came before... was blown away by this.... wouldn’t dare to presume to interpret but to me “end of days” and the fireworks just started thinking about what sort of world we can be in with trump as president and what seems increasingly likely Boris “Tim nice but dim” Johnson as prime minister. Maybe this is the start of the end of days......
