Liked this one a lot too! It has a nice Groove. Reminded me a bit of No Way. It`s not like No Way but the way a simple powerfull groove dominates this song just reminded me of it. Don`t remember much more only that i really liked it.

F: It's an unusual PJ song, It has strong drum (and bass) lines and not so much guitar. The music sounds a bit aggressive & has a
more contemporary feel to it than the usual stuff. Eds voice is still in the normal range as a contrast to the more loud music
Lyric snippet if I heard it right
"put your faith in good hands,
pay no more than a glance"
"you think you've been here before"
(oh god, how embarrassing if these lyrics would be totally wrong, but I had to write fast )
It gets screamier at the end & to me it feels a bit like alternative rock in the direction of the newer Foo Fighters songs.
It has a few voice overlays at the end. & a fade-out again.
C: I found it to be rather long as well. Multiple guitars, backwards played open the song. The rhythm then is very "stompy" IMO. I wrote up some rhythmic notations amd guesses a few harmonies (for some of the other songs too) but find it now hard to remember or express.
OMFG You guys!

My hate for fadeouts is that it always comes in the middle of an awesome solo. Habit, Get Right, In the moonlight Life Wasted, All Or None all cut an awesome solo short. Some fadeouts are fine like Do The Evolution. But on LB, judging by the live version, is gonna fade out right in the middle of a fucking solo.

Not a huge deal, but still.

Yeah, I've never been too bothered about Mike guitar solos. We've already got enough to fill a large ferry. If you can fill a ferry with guitar solos.

Yeah, I don't get the overall fadeout hate either. Half the time I don't even notice it. Sometimes it's not warranted, sure.. but sometimes it works ok for me

Ha, I guess it WAS the studio version of FD.
Well then someone has the digital copy of the album. Someone on the loose.
Now we wait.

The video description was leading to a fake download. So I don't think it was legit.

If I google PJ Future Days MP3 I get a few fakes. One of them is Youtube.

Sorry everybody, false alarm, my bad, my bad!
Forgive me for being an asshole, I blame it on my fanboi hyper excitement.
The clip lead to one of those fake torrent pages.
