This was posted under "Fan Humor" so take it for what it's worth.

So is this the album cover art? I like it. But is it? If it is, why was it posted under "humor"? What is going on here. Is the truth out there? Or are we just jerking off?

all these snippets need to be ranked and named by RM

Give the yanks a chance to wake up.

Hello everyone. I hope you're all doing well. It's that time again when I revisit this forum and join in on the new album hype.

I heard the snippets. I think I liked the last one the best, but almost all of them sound very promising. That Pink Floyd-esque/NAIS-like one in the middle sounds so good. The kind of PJ I've missed. Mike's wailing in the first one sounds great. I need a single at least very soon!

Getting Half Full vibes from Mike's wailing in the first snippet. That arena rock one recalls In Hiding, at least musically. I'm just happy there aren't any punk rock-ish tunes in here. I've had enough of that. The rockers seem more deliberate in pace, which I much prefer.

welcome back

that cleaned up version is definitely easier to process - thanks. I like what Im hearing. That special song (the one about his girls?) has buckle up/parachutes vibes though seemingly without the darker undercurrent (in those 15 seconds at least).

Definitely some anthemic In Hiding/Given to Fly vibes in some

Has this leaked yet?

I listened to the snippets louder than I've been able to previously

and from what I can tell, I'm excited to hear everything

there doesn't seem to be any superficial punk rockers or anything trying to be "fun" or "funny" (a miracle at this point), and we seem to be getting an album full of mid-tempo rockers, something I've really missed from them

if the lyrics don't ruin these, I think we're in for something good

one thing Earthling did very well was make Ed's vocals shine and this sounds similar in that respect

This one sounds even 'better':

That song at 1:05 sounds like they said "Mike, remember when you said you were going for a Pink Floyd vibe with 'Sirens'? We should actually do that this time"

I like that sound for them. The lyrics to Sirens were shmaltzy, the rest was good.

It is an exact match of the chungus YouTube guy’s description. Not sure why it would be posted under humor. Prob a mistake.

But, I like the jerking off possibility better. When do we start?

If that’s actually it, it would be much better than the other one a few pages back. It’s definitely similar to the Binaural cover art.

Just real quick guys … fuck you, mod who strips the OP’s edit ability.

Lol, I don't know who did it, but you do realize as soon as there is an official announcement, this thread will be locked, and stip will create the new official album thread, right? No one wants this to become the official album thread and have to sift through 200+ pages of speculation and shitty puns.
