Re: New Murder By Death
the thing is, even beyond the Johnny Cash-vocal style, they more or less removed the piano, which I found to be one of the best parts of their 1st 2 albums.
I see this band a lot like VAST now. The 1st couple of records were both good, and then they decided to change styles far too much, that they don't even resemble the band or quality that had appeal originally.
like Marillion has said recently, I wish MBD, VAST and a lot of other bands would have changed their name instead of continuing on with the same name but a clear difference in sound. And actually I am seeing that a lot more often now, in some cases for the better (and in some maybe not so much). But at least it gives them a distinction from their earlier/previous band-name's work.
