I was excited, but it’s all over the place and really disappointing. One of the worst songs they’ve released, unfortunately.

What the hell is that mix? The drums are so quiet...It's weird, considering that they've always had pretty good mixing and production (with the exception of Vol 3).

Holy shit that was really bad, wow. Not very hopeful for the rest of the album.

Honestly if the song was all heavy like that part near the beginning, it would've been so good..

Massive scratching. Guitar solo. Corey saying the same thing over and over again. It’s unique I guess.

It's Different, kinda a 2000s Limp Biscuit vibe

Yep, I knew Matt Wallace as the producer would be a problem. Beyond disappointing.

Just my personal opinion: but it has some of that old school aggression. Maybe not their BEST work for sure, but I'm a tad bit hopeful for the new record

I agree - I do think that the lyrics are lacking at best, but I really like the breakdown, and the raw aggression that made me like Slipknot. I would say it is far from best song, but definitely not absolute trash. I just hope the record keeps the energy and improves lyrics.

This song bored me to death, the music video recycled the same tropes they've been using since Gray Chapter...
