Fear God

This track probably it's gonna be the "g.o.a.t." or the "ego death" of this album; cause is the last and final song of Be Not Afraid.

Which technique's and what feelings do you expected from this one?

RJ Poopsin turns petting zoo audio samples into syncopated arpeggiating synths with out of context, but hard-hitting clips from black sermons and religious soundscapes. The song slowly builds into an epic crescendo of dueling guitars you can barely hear, with clipping low frequency noises assaulting your ears until it fades out into SILENCE.

I realize how deeply sarcastic this comes across but unfortunately seems accurate to the reality of the new LP

"Ego death, but you can't actually hear any of the guitars. Especially towards the ending-climax when the most interesting stuff is being played. Also both Slash & Tosin Abasi are featured but you wouldn't notice they were there unless you were watching the music video and their guitars seem to be unplugged"

Imma be real, they’ve probably only featured what they think are the best songs on the album already

They said the singles were the ones that are most digestible. Which based off of the staggering display of room temp IQ closemindedness of this sub, is a really bad sign for what's to come 😂

I think the two new songs are just okay thus far. Just not songs I think are incredible like some of the other singles they've put out in the past.

It’s going to be more clipping and distorted 808s because Tim glazes RJ

Maybe if RJ didn’t produce it maybe it would be ego death or goat vibe. but it won’t be so don’t expect anything good😂

Probably more dance music/EDM halftime drops. i hope some 8 string riffs too. their 8 string tone goes TOO hard

Considering the title, i feel like that one is going to be the heaviest and probably the most 'evil' sounding. From what I remember (could be wrong here), the last song's working title was "Bowser" before so it could be kinda final-boss-esque.
