    I'm really trying hard not to read into "The End" as the final song for PJ. If you look at it like a story told over 20 years starting with "Once" (upon a time) and traditionally closing with "The End" it makes sense. I'd like to think this is the the last song on their new album and leave it at that. It makes me sad to think if I was right. Say it ain't so guys. Jammers...tell me I'm wrong and I will be with you.

    I don't know about the time thing...but I'm fired up for The Fixer...it sounds from all the accounts from people who have heard it that it will be a HUGE hit. Not that it really matters...but it would be cool for them to have another classic rock hit 20 years later without it being a cheesy Aerosmith, Green Day or U2 catering to the girls (moms) and or teenagers style hit.

    WWS almost caught fire... but it dissapeared after two months. AGAIN...it doesn't matter just think it would be cool/weird for the youngsters to rally around/discover them like I did when I was 21.

    I don't see what the fuss about the length of the album is....like someone else said, that was the average time of plenty of classic albums that were first released on vinyl.

    And saying they are all going to be short punk songs is kind of silly. Alive is about 5:30 on Ten, plenty of room for that, especially if you consider one of the acoustic songs probably won't me more than 3 minutes. And so on.

    A shorter album that keeps moving makes it easier to listen to as a first timer to the album than a longer one, too.

    If i had to guess though I would have thought Got Some opened the album, sounds like an opener.

    I choose to believe no part of this. The alternative would be too depressing.

    i hope the songs are better than the song titles :P

    there... ive done my part in the bitching

    cool news! guess we can expect some "punchy" ed-inspired punk songs with it being that short... maybe vitalogy-esque

    im so ready for it

    If this track list is correct I'll eat my PJ hat.

    "Johnny Guitar"??? That sounds like something off a Stray Cats album.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnny_Guitar :lol:

    Also... MOST of the song names listed are the names of songs by other artists... So I'm not sure how much I would believe this information... not saying the it's not true, I'm just skeptical.

    I also have a hard time believing that it hasn't leaked if people are hearing it and getting the track names... the one person we know of that has heard the album had to fly to Seattle to hear it and he was monitored while listening to it so he wouldn't have the opportunity to steal a copy of the album. He was also not given any of the titles to the tracks or the album even... so... who knows.

    I agree 100% with the first line here. The production sucked, no new ground, yet a solid album. Which is why I said by contemporary rock standards, it was a great album.

I'd like to see the band make great music for the sake of great music, and let the fans react how they will.

    I agree totally. My favorite songs are always the ones that the fans "don't get". I thought S/T was one uninspired, generic riff after another, but the fans ate it right up. I guess that's the kind of crap they want/expect. And if you don't agree then you're an "art snob".

    I just wish we could get a yay or nay from the 10c on whether or not this article is correct or incorrect... but getting that kind of info is like pulling teeth.

    i dunno... it seems to me that the Mods rip down any true information pretty quickly. My litmus test is, if it's on the board... it's not true. :lol:

    Yah...

    I will say one thing though... the song called "The End" is really fucking sad.

    Edit: Also, where is RUMOR KILLER when you need him?

    I noticed that the length of Got Some from the Conan performance was only 2:53. I bet there will be a few tracks that clock in at 4 to 5 minutes. Sounds like this would it will be a single vinyl LP.

    I dont wanna hijack this topic. But I think the reason that the self titled album fails (besides production and the no risk song ideas and structures) Is the fact that It doesnt even feel like an album. The band couldn't even give the album a title or a theme. its just got an avocado.

    On topic. This tracklisting could be wrong. anyone could make a tracklist with all the current knowledge of the album. (The End, Got Some, Fixer and UnThought Known.) Throw in a title about waves and steal another few titles from other bands that sound relative. Although I'm not saying its definatly false. Just a speculation. :D

    I wonder if the studio cut will be slower than the live performance... hmmm

    I think this article is BS. I have to agree with some that those titles are terrible.

    Anyone thinking "The End" means something worse? Like AiCs "Over Now" from their "last" album.

    "The End" seems to be about a romantic break up... not the end of the band.

    EDIT: not that i've heard it... or anything.

    Good point . . . it could have a quicker pace live. The Conan performance was definitely scorch’n.

    All speculation until we know if this new info is even true.
