Does anyone have the lyrics to In Excelsis?

It's just that the title and Jaz saying glorious all the time has now implanted thoughts of Handel's Gloria In Excelsis Deo in my head :/

Childhood nightmares of being a choirboy, I guess :[

As much as I love a good chug (ooh..er...Missus), I have to agree with Todd here.... BRING BACK THE TWANG (i.e. THE BELL!)

Geordie is soooo much more than chug 1234 greg.

He is a master of arpeggios from another world and making single twangy notes hit like an anvil the size of Jupiter. For my money he does this way better than the little tiny bees in the jar chug which every pants shitting toddler can do.

If Geordie’s legacy is too heavily weighted with memories of chug it will be an abomination, and he would surely be forgotten in short order.

Wow, people are really down on poor old Geordie. Correct me if I 'm wrong, but hasn't he pretty much been the master of heavy, dense, 4/4 downstroke guitar for the past 30 years (with the exception of some pop crap on BTATS and OTG)? I thought we liked that kind of guitar sound...

The bad:

What? Why can’t kj learn that less is more, space is more important than yet another track of guitar buzz saturating and obscuring what came before it. The guitar has no body, no power, no point of existing. Why have Geordie play if what he creates sounds like a kid who just learned IV chords at a guitar center on a POD.

1234 1234 downstrokes for a groove…fucking lazy rudimentary and not interesting or inspiring…for robot dancers only.

On the positive side:

The voice sounds better then the past couple albums at least jaz isn’t trying to sound like a old warty toad possessed by a B movie villain.

Youth doesn’t sound like he has in the mid 90’s
