I'm puzzled by the date on that puppy... May 29 2013?
If that's accurate, it's amazing this hasn't found it's way to the internets.

That looks SUPER fake.

I've listened to the leaked songs way too much already.

Five years from now, I'll know the album as it is. I figure I might as well listen to the missing pieces first so when I'm listening straight through the first time, the new ones won't overshadow the ones I've already heard quite as much. ;)

Five years from now, you'll also be three years removed from the 11th album release.

Fun fact: the guitar solo on Bryan Adams' "Everything I Do (I do it for you)" is more appropriately sensitive to the song than that of "Sirens".

That solo does fit the song quite well, but it's a little bit more of a slow burner

Yeah, I'm kind of surprised that anyone who spends enough time here to even be part of this discussion would skip around the first time they get their hands on a new album. Especially since most of us have listened to the leaked songs lots of times anyway, what's one more in the name of chronological integrity?

Yknow the way Pj don't jam out in anything anymore?

I hope to all fuck that they start again and I hope they do it with sirens.

Mikes solo is too short and it could be really epic live if they gave it some space and some more balls in a live setting.

I mean it has balls aplenty but live they could make it have big hairy deadly balls.

Thatd be so great if they did
