i try to avoid listening to leaks of albums that i really look forward. it's sweet to feel like a kid again when grabbing an album on its release date. also, as i learned from the leak of the audioslave album, a leaked version is sometimes of horrible quality.
that said, i'm not quite sold on the chorus of rose of sharyn... seems too "sing-along-y". sure, other killswitch tracks have distinct singable melodies, but they also have a seriousness and emotional weight that i don't hear in the new song. however, the other song i've heard with howard, when darkness falls, completely rocks.
