    I love the fact that he's at that stage in life, where he's not ashamed or afraid to admit he listens to anything and everything. I still feel embarrassed to listen to particular music in public. Like when I wear rock metal band tshirts but want to listen to 80s pop. I always have the volume of my headphones turned down so low, even though I know no one hears it. Maybe one day I'll find the courage, like noah has!

Are they gonna go back to writing more songs like Dethrone? Are they gonna go melodic hardcore / Slipknot style like in Artificial Suicide? Are they gonna go more pop / electronic? A mix of all these three?
