I expect this to be their standard Save You, Got Some, etc type rocker. I'll probably dig it when I'm in the mood for a generic rock track.

That's all PJ these days, no?

Touche

I agree with this "stip" guy [whoever that guy is ]
I think it would've been a great announcement gimmick if they had published the new album art and tracklisting (and/or release date) and saved the 2nd countdown clock for the tour.

I am pleased with this anyway, I'll definitely be at the SD show.

Just Breathe says hi.

Spoiler: show

I know, I know, I know... but I was focusing on the "rock track" part of what you said, instead of the "generic" part.

zomg?

Man, I guess I am in the minority. Tour dates are the only thing I really care about nowadays when it comes to this band. I was super stoked that the countdown led to the tour announcement. New music is just a reason to get them on the road. I haven't been fully content with an album of theirs since 2000 anyway, so I have little faith in their new output.

It is pretty interesting to see so many people say over and over again that they don't care much for the band's recent output; that they don't have much faith that the next one will be good, even. But still get mad when they don't announce new music.

I mean I get it. Straw man and all that. But it's still interesting to read.

So, I've been gone for a little bit...what's this countdown thing all about?

For the record, you will never find any sort of comments from me. Feel free to go through all of my posts.

Please tell me I'm not the only one that still listens to Backspacer regularly.

I wasn't really talking about you. I didn't really have a specific poster in mind, really. Your post just made me think about how much I've seen the "I don't have faith in them anymore" sentiment over the last year or two (especially). Today, I'm sure some of those same people (though, I'm not sure, because I haven't checked specific people) feel angry that there isn't new music. Just interesting.

So there are no news of the tracklist for the current album yet?
