:haha: hopefully not! It's been really interesting reading the board today, I think we can all agree on that.

Overall, still pumped for the new album.

I don't know man. So far I think all 3 of these songs are better than their closest Backspacer counterparts (and I like Backspacer).

This is shaping up to be a good album.

I've started to be a little critical of backspacer but i still like it a lot, but i would say MYM is better then the songs like it on BS, future days is probably most like just breathe on BS and i don't think it is better yet but i can't fully judge based off last night, and im not sure what to compare lightning bolt to yet, but i like it a lot

Future Days is the weakest of the 3 for sure . I put LB closest to UK. I know it gets some love around here but I don't enjoy it at all.

So, assuming that Of the Earth and Ole are on the new record, we have 5 new songs all together, right?

I'd like Ole and MYM are the 1-2 intro combo, Future Days is probably 4 or 5, Lightning Bolt, being the title track will be 7 or 8 and then Of the Earth is near the end.

I think it's safe to assume Olé won't be on the new album and, while I'd love to hear a fully-realised version of Of the Earth, it seems like a pretty remote chance at best.

What gives you this idea? Do you think Ole is b-side? I think it has fits the theme of the album.
