[...] first song we got to hear is “Empire of the Gun.” I’ve written about the song once before, when it appeared briefly on the band’s MySpace page, but the song has only grown on me more [...]

Yuck. The chorus vocals are horrible. And the song overall is way too formulaic. After graciously waiting for new material, I can say I’m a little disappointed. Still have high hopes for the rest.

I like the riffs! It does sound a bit like stuff of ‘Constitution…’, though. I see that there is an improvement on the sound towards a more organic one, yet I still find the drum sound to be too dry.

Empire of the Gun would be an awesome album title. Good work on the song boys, it’s excellent.

Liked it the first listen. Liked it better the second. loved it the third. Yeah the chorus could be better but so what, the riffage makes up for it.

Oh, and at the same time I’ll redeem myself with the mea culpa of buying the last abum as well.

Honest opinion – i.e., not sucking up because I like Dallas – this song kicks ass. And yes I do dig the chorus. And riffs are fucking tight. And the solo is modern with a good nod to the past. I’ll be buying this – as in, actually paying real dollars for the album.

It sounds like Dallas voice has changed a bit, a more raw yet still clean voice, and I really like it! The song is great, it has everything that makes GF good!

Sounds sick. God Forbid have really forged their own path in metal. They’re one of the few modern bands who can say they have a unique sound, and it sounds like they’ve really perfected it. Awesome riffs the whole way through, drummer sounds at the top of his game, the only thing I’m not too keen on is the chorus, but only because I’m so used to the layered, harmonized clean vocals on Constitution. Plus, I’ve only listened to it once! Great job guys, keep up the good work

I can’t even properly judge this considering how awful music on MySpace sounds. Bands need to start using PureVolume again.

So there are some god forbid cover bands out there that sound better than the real thing?

Great stuff, need to give it time to grow on me though cause i think i will love this song after a couple more spins.

Solid song! I can’t wait for the new album now!

Dallas, you and the other guys are doing a hell of a job :)

It sounds sick. Like a lot of new music it will take time for it to fully grow on me, but unlike ‘the day that never comes’ I actually thought it was good the 1st time I heard it. keep up the good work, I’ll definately be at the next show in long island or NYC. I expect last show at the crazy donkey might keep GF in NYC tho…
