| The EP is pretty nice. The sound quality and production is so much better than on the DIY Guys. The only thing I don't really like is that they cut out the intro to Bloodfire. I know it's not that much, but that little quiet bit really helps build up the song. Live or Die Free is alright, too. Not really as good as I was expecting, but a decent track. The EP is really just something nice to have in my collection...the same reason I might purchase the other two versions of the album later on. | |

| RENEGADE 3.5/5
This song is so well constructed and catchy that I can’t help but sing along to the chorus. The only beef I have with this song is the way Jared screeches his vocals in the verse…it’s really starting to tire me. I would have preferred it if he rapped it without the squawk.
BLOODFIRE 3.5/5
Wow! What a punch in the throat. Very heavy KoRn style riffs mixed with subtle reggae and fast paced thrash and what a fucking chorus. Makes me feel like getting the fuck in the mosh. DJ Products sample blends in extremely well and the final thumping conclusion to this song is sublime. ‘We’ve got some difficult days ahead.’
Ordo AB Chao 3/5
This is the first song in a verse where I can really dig the way Jared sings it. The addition of the melodica in the verses really add some depth to this song. This song doesn’t seem to mesh too well going from verse to chorus to verse to chorus to bridge to chorus. There seems to be something wrong about this song that I can’t quite understand.
Live or Die Free 2.5/5
This song sounds very intro like. Fat bass line and cool guitar riff. Not sure about the singing style in the verse. Once again (hed) pull off the chorus really well.
All up a pretty sweet album. I really want to hear about ‘the sex, the drugs, the violence’ on the full length however. I think I’m dreaming. This album will probably be the most politically oriented one yet. | |

| Everyone is talking about Bloodfire without the intro, and how Live or Die Free has no intro either, and I have an answer now. The intros are cut out, as we found out from the tracklisting. Both Bloodfire and Live or Die Free both probably have their own intros, but they have been cut into their own separate tracks.
I thoroughly enjoyed each track on the EP, they definitely outdid themselves. I was thinking, and they seemed to have gotten a little more serious. Insomnia sounded, 'cartoonish' I thought. With these songs, it seems as if (hed) found their mark, and know what they're doing when trying to achieve this style, it seems.
Live or Die Free was short, as previously said, I agree. It cuts away from the likeness of the song, it's definitely the least favorite song on the EP...but then again, it's just an album intro song, so it's good for what it is...it definitely seems to give a good perspective to what the album will be like.
The EP gives me sexual feeling i've never felt before. lol just kidding. but seriously, it gets me psyched for NWO, I think this album is going to be absolutely amazing.
And, about the sex, drugs, and violence. I'm sure there will be songs talking about that stuff. I'm glad that they werent in the songs we've already heard, because it would have taken away from the seriousness of them. Plus with Insomnia, that was one of the problems, people (myself included) thought it was dumb that in one line Jah would be talking about the Illuminati, and then in the next sentence it was about making girls cum. But I have no doubt, that there will be songs talking about sex (especially if STEPPING STONE is the song we think it is) | |

| One of my favorite things I like about Hed, is that they can mix partying and having a good time with revolution and conspiring against the government.
Covers all bases. Cause you can't be too serious, that would be no fun! | |

true, but sometimes it doesn't go together Agreed. I think they should just separate the songs.. and it would work out well. But Oh well. Lol. No one is perfect! | |

| his name will be in the CD booklet, and he will have credit for drumming on the album i think that's enough, and it's fair
he left hed pe for another band. so, i dont see how you'd think it's unfair that they cut him out of a poster lol
dont take this as i dont like tiny though, i thought he was a hella drummer, definitely had a GREAT impact on (hed) | |

| Its not strange to cut him out the poster, as hes no longer in the band. However like MMM said the guy did all the drumming on NWO and so will get full credit for that in the booklet. Its like the situation with devin he did the drumming on Insomnia but left before its release.
What poster are we talking about BTW? | |

| Hmmm... so far all of (hed)'s drummers leave after they finish recording an album.I hope that just not a coincidence. | |
