I don't see that song in the tracklist that they released, perhaps they will subtitle them, so it could end up as track 9 (Sirens) , but im just getting excited for what we know, and track 9 sounds like a solid title

Oh, I see what you're doing here. I think I prefer the idea of track 5.

5's are usually quite solid.

Number 2's vary between soft and hard.

Very few PJ albums fall short in the first half . It's what they put in the second half that will make or break this record.

As much as I love getting info and leaks before hand I miss the discovery of a new album on release day...in the car. ..driving down the highway. Each new track a surprise...I hope it doesn't leak...they kept MYM under wraps.. maybe they can do it with the new album. Sure their will be live leaks...but maybe not studio tracks.

Will there be live leaks though? I thought the tour didn't start until after the album's out. So maybe we're all in the No Leak Club.

This is so true. The second half will be a big test as to whether this album is 'built to last'.

The tour begins a few days before the release date but I presume we'll have Amazon/iTunes previews (if not a full leak) well before then.

Ah, that'll be nice. I think I want to gauge opinion before listening though. If everyone says the whole thing is disgustingly disappointing I might wait.
