Thats what I don't get. Framing Armageddon had some good stuff on it.
In terms of classic IE, Id say Something Wicked Part 1, and Framing Armageddon were what IE has done. SWP1 had that fucking sweet intro and the title track was like Coming Curse meets Violate.
Everything else was closer to mid-tempo work- branching out to new stuff.
Besides, the ignorant answer is that BARLOWS BACK! OMFG! ITLL ALL BE DIFFERENT NOW!!!
in that case yes. There will be differences.
1. Shaffer said before it would be darker and heavier even before Part 1 was released...dark & heavy = classic IE.
2. Barlow accents the base and drums, meaning Shaffer can do whatever he wants on his guitar and it will sound sweet
3. Jon seems to take what European fans say to heart. Meaning while it won't be NOTSR, itll be a step up in intricacy.
4. If Iced Earth released it as unplugged ballads with cheezy 80's keyboard work (think whitesnake style) id buy it.

I really hope this album will be heavy and close to classic IE!
