105. Song Of Madness

This is the START OUT OF HELL & ARRIVE TO HEAVEN topic.
Let's Go to Rock 'n' Roll!!!!!!!

Song Of Madness (9)

I loved Life Is A Lemon, I loved Land Of The Pigs. When I heard the first song on the album, Los Angeloser, I almost got a heartattack. I hated that! After that I wasn't curious of the album anymore, but I've heard the Rockcamp video with Song Of Madness and I thought the entire album will be perfect. So, the album is not a high level for me, but this song is still perfect. I love it. The lyrics is sometimes weird and out of rhythm but the melody is very good. Definietly this is the best song on the album. This is the only one on the way of Steinman. Well done, Meat!

My score: 9

robgomm · 28 Sep 2010, 12:59

Yeah, a masterpiece like Masculine it is not, LOL.

I love that song, best track on the album. It's interesting how much it differs from the original version, would like to know who was responsible for the changes.

To be blunt, I agree with that seriously i do. Masculine has a rhythm, a beat, and a fantastic riff. People may joke about it but I love that song as much as people love FCOL.

but with SOM, the first time I heard it it did nothing for me. Still doesn't.

I do like the "Thank god my queen. Just Lie To Me. Make make beleive that I am King. and by Morning" verse. But thats it.

Ill give it 4/10. i think my 3 may have been too harsh

when I first heard the youtube club of it I thought it was going to be a huge part of the album, but it just doesn't seem to really go anywhere for me, like it's stating 'yes it's designed to sound like Metallica/Disturbed but we're not sure what else to do'

5 for me

Awesomely epic harder rock song. Another excellent one to turn up loud. I also love the "My god my queen just lied to me, made me believe that I was king, but by morning..."

Yes it is designed to sound like Metallica the same way "In the Lands of the Pigs" was, and to be honest it actually does. I can picture James Hetfield singing "Song of Madness". It wouldn't look out of place in a Metallica set list anyway.

This is song is thousand times better than any Metallica sh*t. I just cannot stand Metallica who has collapsed rock/metal music in the start of '90ies...

Huge and heavy rock track, with quite complex lyrics that convey the character's spiral into rage, hurt and bitter sweet contemplation of everything that he's lost. There's such despair in the heavy and insistent music and in Meat's voice. It's a hugely forceful track, and brilliantly delivered.

10+

It's top of the list too!!! Which is a very fair reflection, because it's the best song on the album IMO.
