Lightning Bolt: the official album thread

[EJ]

Wonder what other tidbits of Greek mythology will appear on this album.

So far, we have speculated:

album cover art - Cyclops
rumored album track - Sirens

[harmless]

Stuff about the economy / austerity.

[Mine]

That's one no more not this time around.

Just realized the new pair of sneakers I bought two weeks back are an exact match to the color scheming of the new album.

Are your shoes really sneakers? I hear more of a tennis shoe in them.

[Strat]

Speculation time!

possible Wrigley setlist:

Spoiler: show

(Lightning Bolt)

I wonder if that is the eery instrumental piece we heard in the Tour announcement/MYM video. The way MYM starts is very abrupt, so perhaps there is an interlude piece that ends with a massive crash (lightning bolt) that immediately kicks in MYM.

[WtOB?]

So, anyone looking to do a fake tracklist punking must now include Lightning Bolt and Future Days.

[dimejinky99]

Pj never did a title track. That theory could turn out to be great Strat.
I'm excited about that atmospheric track, whatever it may be

[Sgt. Crackpot]

Wow, so we may actually get to hear the sound checked track in all it's glory? Or perhaps they've put LB in brackets because Ed is going to chat about/plug the album.

Very interesting, if this is legit.

To be honest, I'm not hopeful simply because MYM isn't on there (unless I missed it in my very tired-eyed state). If they're going to play anything off Lightning Bolt, it'll be MYM. I'm not sure what Future Days is but at least it could be... somethin' else.

You missed it harmy, it's on there.

MYM is on there, right under "(Lightning Bolt)."

Edit: I knew I was gonna get ninja'd.

[harmless]

Right then. So I'm just not sure why they'd call it Lightning Bolt, unless that's just a placeholder for 'something off the new album'.

Or my theory is spot on and the atmospheric piece will jsut be played through the PA system

I like your speculation.

[harmless]

If this 'Lightning Bolt' instrumental went straight into MYM, that would mirror Master / Slave going into Once on Ten.

[Hatfield]

I like all the Yield in that setlist! It seems like they are getting it. Then you read Supersonic in the f'ing 2nd encore. WTF?

I want at least one more new song so bad.

On another note, how are you all getting this album? Ordering from PJ's site, itunes, local store, target?

I'm going to do my best to avoid any leaked studio versions until the day, and I'll hopefully find a record store that stocks it. I'm not confident I'll be able to however. So if 10C gives away any other songs officially, I'll listen to 'em.
