I respect your oppinion about it, don't get me wrong, I also love TCOM, but for me, SWP3 is the weakest song on the album, and only becuause of the one riff from the SW trilogy, it reminds of the coming corse, cause its the same riff, but that doesn't makes the song any better, I don't think it is bad or shit, but it is not as great to me as the other songs on the album.
Exactly, it has no fucking BALLS behind it man! 98 The Coming Curse = BALLS 08 SWP3 = no BALLS
...wtf why balls? I dunno. _________________ I will devour, I will divide. TheComingCurse, your anti-Christ, I am the watcher's eye.
I think you are too busy focusing on these 'balls' XD.
Anyway I can see why some of it seemed bland.
The most appealing part of the album was the time gap between his birth and becoming the set that would have been in the coming curse era. Set as a child and his adolescence were portrayed well, as well as the open ending of Come What May.
Thats what to me made Framing Armageddon so great. The gap between the Prophecy an the Birth could be endlessly explored and adapted to Jon's will.
I just felt that Sacrificial Kingdoms and Something Wicked Part III were leaching too much from the Coming Curse song.
Divide and Devour is one of them too but I enjoy the song too much. _________________
Someone with an opinion that differs from some of those on the forum.... No way!
But all in all, TCOM does kind of suck balls after a while. I'd have to agree that it was a pretty hefty let down. Not saying that it was the "worst" album of the year, but it definitely wasn't close to being the best. _________________ "Mankind's dishonesty lays them to waste" - Iced Earth
guess i add my 2 pennies.....i like TCOM, but its not the best iced earth album. i guess the reason is, i dont think the album was aggressive enough for me....musically. i mean, heres a album about the friggin anti-christ, and it just seemed a little...restrained to me. so i guess i was just let down a little. but NO WAY is it a bad album. _________________

You die now!
Nah just kidding, I wouldn't kill a fellow IE Fan.
What I meant about sounding like Slayer is, to not hold back on
the lyrics and the energy.
Like Night of the Stormrider, it is (imo) the best Iced Earth album (to date)
It's just feels so much more energetic.
However Iced Earth is a band that you have to see live to really appreciate
if we get to hear those songs live they'll probably grow on us.
Iced Earth never lacks energy when they play live!
TCOM is by far not the best album, but there were aspect of the album that were more appealing than others.
