Could have as easily been a keyboard making strings effects but it does sound like strings.
Could it be the track with the rumoured Incubus girlfriend on violin? I wonder because I hear a violin on the bridge.

I hear this too. But as I said somewhere else, if they had a string player for soundcheck they would have played something with strings at the show. I believe that this was a playback of the studio track in an empty theatre.

That makes sense to me yep. it sounded too rehearsed to be a soundcheck.

It sounded too ambient to me to be a studio recording, but that could be because of the low quality of the sound clip

Okay, I'm listening to the song again.

That's no "siren" at the beginning, to my ears, it's a delayed electric guitar.

I still don't hear the strings or keys, just Mike playing some pretty effected lead guitar.

The way you can hear Matt's snare and cymbals ring out, I'm certain it's being performed live, not a playback.

Possibly with one or two guys playing along with it. (only heard this once thru an iphone speaker. is the file still available?

No it's definitely being played live. You can hear the drums splashing back off the walls/roof.

ok I'll keep it going then. That song sure might not be a soundcheck. Its too hard to hear so anyone that thinks it sounds like anything special is a bit foolish. There's no way this song is Sirens. Something else.
Did I cover it all? :)

How did this thing get like 10 new pages yesterday? All of it just talking about the soundcheck song? Or did we get more news yesterday?

We're all ignoring a fairly easy way to obtain this new record....

Judd Apatow has the new record; I assume he's listening to it in his car...so wouldn't it be easy for an LA RMer to just break into said car and take it? :D
