New above & beyond album

Do you expect it to be something better then their last releases (air for life, alone tonight)?
Do you think that it will be any good?
From reading the interview on t.nu I think there is what to expect to.
But I'm not so sure.

Omer.

I think it will turn out to be a cheesefest of big proportions.
since they already anounced that it will be rich of vocal tunes I don't have high hopes since both Air for Life and Alone Tonight were poor tunes.

the fans may like it but I doubt it will be remembered as a remarkable release.

I'm looking forward too hear the stuff on it, but I'm not sure if it's going too be good. I usually hate vocals, but I hope they make some interesting stuff

A&B are the best at doing vocal stuf so i think it will be both a success critically and commerically. Alone Tonight has got the cheesiest lyrics ever but tbh most vocal trance does. Wot it does have is an infectious hook line melody and dance floor potential. If you dont like a bit of cheese fair enuf but A&B are nowhere near as bad as say SOS or Dogzilla - Without You was this year.

A&B have always aired towards more commercial cross-over material. Their best tune (remix of madonna) no1 can say wasnt brilliant and they will do the same sort of thing on this album. I did think Air For Life was weak but it blew up in clubs. At the end of the day A&B make great club records. Its not for serious dissecting music material

The 3 of them are well respected by just about everyone in the trance scene. The only people that dont are trance snobs or psyers who cant see past their own genre as it is.

I honestly haven't heard anything really good from them since that Madonna remix and Razorfish. Just compare that Madonna remix with their newer stuff. It's like if the evolution has gone backwards.
yes I know that their music is for the broader pop audience who don't care much about the trancy aspect but rather enjoys a catchy melody with some poppy vocals throw in on it, hence their success.

Let's be perfectly honest here: A&B haven't altered their sound in the slightest since 2001, and their label Anjunabeats pumps out that exact same sound and nothing else. How the fuck are they "the most creative producers out there" if they've only ever made one sound?

And before idiots come down on me like a ton of shit, I'm not calling A&B's sound crap (although personally I don't like it much, not after five years of it), but even the most ardent A&B fan must admit that they've only done one type of tune in their career.
