The irony is that the No Leak Club may be rendered entirely pointless. [and prescient]

I'm sure it will leak tomorrow when I'm out of town with shitty reception to the rest of the world.

I wouldn't be surprised at this point if our first listen came from an iTunes stream next Tuesday (a week before the release), then someone will make a shitty rip of that and call it a leak. That's what happened with Soundgarden's new album, technically it never leaked, we just got a rip of the stream that aired on iTunes a week before release.

Hats off to the label for this one, fuckers!

I kid, I kid. We've already had the 4-song leak and a bunch of NLClubber's bailing ship, like Harmless. Happens every time....[since 2003]

I really just want to find out whether this album was worth throwing away three months of my life for.

I saw the gif before I read what you quoted, and I was kinda let down you hadn't quoted the post about McP getting ready to bleach his anus.

Reminds me of Wrigley before the rain delay. They showed a guy in the front row on the screens during one of the songs ( Nothingman maybe?) that WAS SO INTO IT.

Then he had to leave the front row. Wonder if he made it back up. I felt kinda bad for him.
