I just had another look at the OTE lyrics, and man are they basic. I'm speculating that they actually added to the lyrics and may have changed the name. Like someone earlier suggested 'Swallowed Whole'.

No, I don't think so. That fake tracklist just pulled together all the tracks we already knew about and then filled them in with garbage titles. SBM was always a legit rumor because the person who revealed was also the first to reveal the name Sirens.

I think the guy who revealed Sirens confirmed SBM when asked about that tracklisting. When he first wrote about Sirens he also wrote about a "Uke song" Then later he said that out of the list, the only one he could confirm was SBM.

Just a guess really. A monster that was 'of the earth' came up and swallowed them whole.

I said it a couple days ago, but I have a suspicion that Swallowed Whole is the soundcheck song. I've been listening to it and at multiple points it sounds like Eddie is saying "swallowed whole"

But the lyric "Swallowed Hole" also fits well with OTE's verses, so who knows.

Can you guys stop it.

When this album turns out to have nothing to do with the apocalypse i'm going to unfairly resent it through no fault of its (or the bands) own. :gomez:

Come on man, you know this is going to happen no matter what. We're in that limbo stage where our minds imagine the album will be far better than it actually will be.

Today's songs seemed to have a personal theme to them. We know SBM does, and "My Father's Son" seems to have a personal feel in the title..

I'm happy with today's output. The SBM thing didn't really bother me too much because it was meant to be funny at least, even though it's one of the weaker images. The other one may be favorite one yet. I'll take that!

There's still at least 1 or 2 more new titles to reveal so I'm looking forward to tomorrow fo sho!

I'm still holding out hope this will be a doom metal album that was promised to me by the first verse of Hold On.

I was DOOM Riding atop a black horse...
