Well,if the next LP is going to be heavy I just can't fathom the album sounding as strong and as heavy as "Painkiller". Even if they went in the studio trying to create an album as strong as Painkiller I still don't think it would turn out as heavy,not because of lack of effort but because they are older now. But we all have to understand that they are now pushing 60 years old and not pushing 40. Thats what I'm afraid of....I can see this band churning out total heavy metal and a total heavy album and hearing members complaining that its not as good as Painkiller not because of the quality of songs but because of the heaviness of the album.
Even though it was the bands intention to create Angel Of Retribution in the same vien as Screaming For Vengeance and Defenders Of The Faith,still many fans were complaining that it wasn't as heavy as Painkiller ect.... But what they missed out on is that it wasn't supposed to be as heavy as Painkiller. Even if on the next album every track was equal to "Demonizer"....I can still hear fans complaining that its not another Painkiller...I sure hope not. If the next LP turned out like Angel Of Retribution I will be more than satisfied.
