that is a totally excellent tune, i see what you mean on the site about it being very different to whats on the first album. its a much more accomplished effort all round.

its ok.can't say it got me greatly excited,nicely produced and nice sounding recording though.

it's a really nice song... i never liked the shouty stuff MTS did, it always sounded like they were trying too hard. they're far better at this sort of stuff. Although i don't like the end where it gets 'heavy'..

Still, good song. catchy. fun.

"they're far better at this sort of stuff"

I'd agree with that statement. It's the stigma you get attached with though in Scotland if you write and release anything vaguely melodic. People automatically assume you're out to sell your soul. We've been offered possible record deals in the past if we only did melodic stuff and turned them down because we enjoy rawking out too much. The majority of the new album is melodic, the previous "...Trench Run" single being something of a red herring. I'm just paranoid about being M.O.R. and boring. Some folk who love their hardcore will think "shell" is like that anyway, I'm more referring to stuff like the new idlewild single or say snow patrol's "run", or liking Summer of 69 in a non-ironic sense!
