New Soilwork record in june 2010

I look forward to listen new Soilwork, I am curious but my expectations are sceptic

They have argumented already in summer of 2007 that Sworn to a Great Divide would be absolutely magnificent return to the A Predators Portrait and Natural Born Chaos times. But they were not right,it was just a marketing trick to attract the older fans. Sworn to a Great Divide is not a record with bad material but it does not reflect return to the older era. Ola Frenning left Soilwork in 2008 and his nephew Peter Wichers has come back to the band after his unexpected departure in late 2005.
They promise again the same, because they want to sell the best. I do not believe in "reincarnation" of amazing Predators Portrait. I have to confess that I am fed up with that kind of mainstream records if the band is lying in the essence of the things. Last Soilworkers record brought only a few good songs. We can mention "The Breeding Thorns", "Silent Bullet", "As The Sleeper Awakes" or "20 More Miles". But they did not take breath, only they are simple little above average. But "Asylum Dance", "Bastard Chain", "Shadowchild", "Structure Divine" or "Needlefeast" is higher above that average. I have read the blog reports from the recording session of the eights forthcoming album "The Panic Broadcast", everything what they have written is fine, but we will listen result already in the three months.
