It's supposed to be a bin for lego storage. But my son likes to display his "creations" in his room, so it never really left the downstairs storage bin. I came across it this morning, and realized he'd probably never even seen it...

Always found No Code very hit and miss. Songs like Off he goes, Red Mosquito and Present Tense are all top 25 for me but then there are songs like Habit which I haven't listened to in full since... I can't remember.

Infact if Habit was put out now by PJ they would be disowned by some on here.

Well, either Jorge is trolling or the shocked faces are due to the fact that 13 days out, it hasn't leaked.

I'm dissapointed but not surprised. Backspacer was 10 days out, I'm just impressed they have been able to keep a lid on it.

No Code is my favourite album of all time, but Habit is all kinds of lame.

Habit's outro is perfect and the whole song is awesome.
