god forbid we keep talking about the album within its own thread instead of taking a tangent down memory lane about anything but this album. cool. why do i come here again?


*bony finger locked and loaded* YOU'RE A FREAKIN TROLL! but i like your style.
I pledge to be 100% boring and never troll-out again. I will make my interactions here pleasant, like sitting through an agricultural economics class.

He asked where the discussion was, and we pointed him to the song thread that was right there. Sorry he didn't want to participate in the discussion of a new song in the thread about that song. What a rebel

I wonder if there's going to be swag at the Atmos showings? Probably a miniposter of the album art...if that.

The album really must be under lock and key.

No leaks, no reviews, no insider tweets, no mysterious dime posts

Can’t help byt feel they are missing a trick.

Hype doesn’t build over months anymore, you have like a week to capitalise

You're forgetting that we are all idiots who lap up everything this band does. And the general population will just fall in line when more material exists.

Do you think there are a tonne of people who liked DotC, checked to see if there was more new material and then not care in 6 weeks? I don't think so.

That’s not really my point. We have waited 7 years for something oh substance. The album rollout seems well conceived, I just think it could’ve been condensed into like a month. Starting the tour before the album drops is odd too

It seems to be weekly rollouts. We have lots more to wade through.

Jan 24 DotC Mach 1
Jan 31 DotC Mach 2
Feb 7 DotC Mach 3
Feb 14 SW Tease
Feb 21 SW Mach 1
Feb 28
March 6
March 13
March 20
March 27 GIGATON Muthafukkas

And I too wish it was a quicker rollout/release.

just be glad it's faster than the Green Day release schedule and over twice the album length. it was 150 days from first single to release of the album for GD and only 65 days from the first single to Gigaton.

6 weeks to release - that's a long time to wait for a shit.

It'll probably leak in 3 ;)
