Ideas for upcoming album.

Hey guys. I thought it would be nice to post a discussion related to an upcoming album. I'm referring to the sound, the theme, the atmosphere etc. I know Paul is already writing some new material and that it is gonna be darker and faster than Godspeed.
I think it would be awesome to share ideas with each other about an upcoming album. Let's hope that we together can create another masterpiece ;)

I would like more emphasis on the keyboards, making it darker and bringing more atmosphere in the music. The keyboards are nowadays pushed to the background. The return of a choir would be nice too. Also remain playing fast, but write a few songs that are slow or mid-tempo. That creates more differences between songs. The guitars should have the power like on Godspeed, but blend them with more melody like on Dusk and Cruelty. I don't say anything about the vocals and the drums, because those are always great :D

Since Dani is losing his scream I think he should take a break with those on this album.

Well, I think they are improving again. He gained that crispy voice again which he had on past albums like Midian. But it sounds a bit lower because his own voice is lower I think. His deep low vocals are lower (than on past albums) and therefore much better.

Which means that a cover of a Total Fucking Darkness song would be decent.

Honestly what band that writes about vampires hasn't done Vlad Tepes yet? All aboard the commerical bandwagon, for real.

I think they mean more leaning towards the Bram Stoker version mate, which would be ok providing Martin hadn't left. His touch would have made it far more Gothic. But that new Smurf they have on keyboards is pretty good

I agree with the Dracula concept album in the old style of Cruelty and the Beast, but I don't think all mighty Paul would record it. angel smileys

perhaps The Mayan/Aztek dark of the past should be expressed, snake gods hungry for sacrafice, cruel sun gods, wicked priests of war, prophecies of doom, and star worshipers who had detailed astronomy and varied myths... with some hints of truth worth exploring for themes of dark cruelty. Just thought i would mention an alternative to Vlad when it comes to album concepts

Sounds like something that Nile would do.
