Will all the prior talk about this being such a heavy album, at first I was a little surprised at how while there was a lot of intensity all around, this wasn't the beat-em-into-the-ground album I was expecting based on some of what was said.

But did anyone ever think that maybe when it was hinted that this would be such a heavy album it didn't just mean heavy as in a rock-out sense but in an emotional sense?

Incredible.

I think the album is heavy, but as about as heavy as the other albums. No one can say it's heavier than Undertow because there is much more to it, theres a balance of mellowness, and heaviness which I think is handled very well. This song shows that.

I completely agree. I'm actually glad the timbre of this album isn't as monotone as Undertow. And this album does have some fierce moments.

I just hope that some people, like some others I've heard, aren't expecting a thrash fest because I've always believed that emotions can be just as heavy as volume.

yes, sorry. I thought I was in the main 10kdays page when I created it. My apologies.

Well, I do think this song lacks heaviness.

Rosetta gets heavy as fuck, dude. It's about what you define as HEAVY.
