Flick The Switch sounds a lot like the song described at the Andy Bell DJ gig a couple weeks back. Wasn't that supposed to be the single? Great song regardless.

This song came out yearssssss ago (not a bad tune to be honest), cant believe anyone can even fall for this The song labelled as Kill Switch on YouTube isn't actually Kill Switch. It's that old tune with the Prodigy. Kill Switch will be a new song (the single, presumably) altogether. |

I guess FOTF is just one of the tracks on the promo, and they have given some radiostations the right to play one of the songs of that promo (as long as it isn't the single).
It might be a good strategy that was planned by the record management. This way they are giving the fans a taste of the new album/sound, and get some pressure off the wish of a leak.
If the pressure is pushed so high by what happens on internet, someone could give in and let the single or the album leak. By releasing a promotrack or a album track on a radiostation, this lower that pressure.
That's what I guess has happend.
Remember Bring The Light? That was released (even with a video) but wasn't the lead single in the end, which was becoming The Roller. This is just the same thing happening, only without making any costs for a big promotion video etc. but just let the internet do it's work...
By the way, FOTF gives me a bit of a BRMC feel. Not bad tho. Not at all, for i'm a big BRMC fan to.
Not a lead single song, we all agree on that here I guess, and I guess BE and it's team know that as well as we do.

Not a lead single song, we all agree on that here I guess, and I guess BE and it's team know that as well as we do. As a fan of BRMC I agree with you there... It has that sort of straightforward rock vibe with alot of immediate energy. Having just joined this discussion I'll say that I really like Flick of the Finger although I really hope it isn't going to be one of the best tracks on the album. I don't think it would be good as a single so I'm hoping it's just a sort of promo track. What I'm still a bit confused about is if the music clips on the official site are part of Flick of the Finger or are from a different song? They SOUND like Flick of the Finger but it seems kind of stupid to make us unlock a track that has already been leaked and can stream on Soundcloud.. |

I wouldn't mind if FOTF is KS, last night I felt positive they were one and the same but as I think more and more about it I bet FOTF is the the song before Kill Switch on the album and just one of the songs on the 4 track promo, I think its kinda obvious especially with that outro it sounds like KS will pick up their and maybe give us a proper kick off, I really love FOTF though and if they are one and the same... I really wouldn't mind. but I now think FOTF is the song before it especially with that quote at the end about the FOTF tearing you apart, then they way the horns die and you can hear the drums loosen up i bet it will kick off KS. maybe FOTF is even the album opener. Either way their has been some talk of it being psychedelic and Dark Side Of The Moonish so Im guessing it will be a flowing album where the song drift into one another.

DGSS wasn't a bad album but to me it seemed very unbalanced between great songs and bad songs, and overall really didn't flow together. Any Dark Side of the Moon influence would be a great. |

FOTF could possibly be a B Side to Kill Switch and might not be an album track at all, that's just wishful thinking on my part though that Flick of the Finger was that poor compared to the rest of the album they demoted it to be a bside.

A b side? really? FOTF is a great tune, so great to be in the album. Whereas NGHFB really seemed a compilation album of left outs and bsides.

I agree, I think it's a top little tune. Just be amazing if it was seen as a bside though due to the quality of tracks on the album, that's living in cloud cuckoo land but one can dream |

This guy Mick Lynham from RCA made it clear that FOTF was an album track and not a b-side. He's the one who talked about Kill Switch being the name of the single, before anybody else. |

Okay, now you're talking above my head. I don't know all of this industry jargon, YP, MP. All I know is that I can't get a record contract, we cannot get a record contract unless we take those tapes to the record company. And granted, the tapes themselves are a uh um oh, you own them, all right, but the magic that is on those tapes. That fucking heart and soul that we put onto those tapes, that is ours and you don't own that. Now I need to take that magic and get it over the record company. And they're waiting for us, we were supposed to be there a half hour ago. We look like assholes, man! Let me explain in simple arithmetic. One, two three! Because you don't fuckin' get it! You give us the tapes. We get the record contract. We come back and give you your fuckin' money. Have you heard the tapes? Have you even heard them? We're guaranteed a record deal. Our stuff is that good! You know what I'm thinking about, man? I'm thinking about kicking some fuckin' ass! Fuck yeah! |

I'm not sure if anyone has brought this up, but I think it's likely that Flick Of The Finger is the opening track to the record, and then leads directly into Kill Switch. FOTF ends with the "and with the flick of the finger, tear a million of you to pieces" quotation, and then in the very next song, the kill switch gets flicked. If these songs aren't tracks 1 and 2, it seems likely that they are at least back to back.
