Brave New World Single Review (its really bland)

I am a MASSIVE Covenant fan...

BUT
I am very disapointed with the new versions of BNW.. they all lack oomph and strength!....

I really hope to God that Covenant are not trying to take the same path as VNV Nation and try to subdue and popify their music to try and please the uneducated masses.

Look where that got VNV Nation..!?!? ( Matter and Form) VNV Nation are now playing Little Night Clubs in London to make a living.. far cry from the festivals they headlined..

Now this BNW single is sounding bland and lifeless.. I was bored of it .. I had to put on the album version to remember how good the song really was before it got POP MUSZAKED to death ..

I hope they get back on form for the next single and give us the POWER they are famous for ...

I love Covenant

POP Muzak is the stuff they play in supermarkets and lifts

Didn't VNV just do their largest North American tour ever last year? They headlined fectivals too... They are playing a strictly old school set in 2 days in LA just to help the club that lauched them in the US celebrate their 10th anniversary - it sold out in 2 days and I can't wait to see it! Don't think they are having a hard time making a living...

As for Covenant - 4 days til I see them in SF...

We should probably keep it over in the English version of the thread

But wow, I didn't know the show sold out in 2 days! I thought it was a week or two! 900 tickets! Of course, that is not 20,000 like M'era Luna or something, but 900 tickets in 2 days is a damn good sale.

Have fun at the show!
