They're 128kbs mp3s but it's worth a listen or two to get a first impression.

Yeah I was expecting Getaway to be your standard PJ rockin' opener, but it really isn't.

The only reason I wonder if we're getting more tracks is b/c on some of these they fade into the next song on the album, which a promo sampler prolly wouldn't do.

So it DID... ! Gotta get my grubby fingers on this now!

swallowed whole

I can feel the dawn/I can feel the earth/I can feel the living all around, round round round

Continues in that vein. some lyrics are pretty good, but definitely this kind of new age feel.

Wish teh love was available for all....haha....

Yeah, I'm freaking out right now.
I loved these songs.

How do you know this? Can you tell other songs are coming in as one fades out?

what is clear far from the noise gets swallowed whole is the anchor line in the chorus

So kind of a new-agey religious vibe then. They should've put a bit of sitar on that.

Ok, I know it's WAY early, but LTRP may be my new fav PJ song of the post-Binaural era.

I'll inevitably end up being too irritated by the quality to really enjoy the songs. I think I'll wait for FLACs (even if that means I'll be waiting a while).

Someone PM?

damn it, i think im gonna have to stay out of this thread now, i dont wanna know everything about these songs before i hear them for myself

nice solo in swallowed whole--which ends strong.

I thought it ended a bit too suddenly.

I like that ending

There is some new guitar at end of LB that seems like it's the beginning of the next track (Infallible). Plus it's kinda weird that SW is track 5 and LTRP is track 3, since LTRP comes after it on the album.

[EDIT]

Is this leak real? And, how can I get it?

I have the same impression of LB that i did from the live version. I hate the verses/bridge. The you gotta know youll never let her go and the solo from 1.13 are the best parts and Ed sounds kinda rough, especially towards the end. I like the drums under the first 'then she comes to be with her newly planted seeds' etc etc. But they don't come back i think.

maybe. it'll be a few more listens before I start honing in on lyrics. But the sex stuff in getaway seems to be more about us feeling like we can fuck the world.
