3 1/2 YEARS FOR 36 MINUTES OF MUSIC??? WTF?!!!

Pink Floyd Dark Side of the moon, just under 40 minutes. Led Zep albums around 42 minutes.

I'd rather not have stuff like Ghost filling the void between the Vinyl and CD media capacity.

It would be fun to take all the PJ albums and think in terms of the 1970's. Pick one album which gets to be a double album. Then, limit all others to 45 minutes of content. For each album, what songs would you leave in/out?

Sounds like an idea for a new thread

I am the only one here thinking O'Brien just cut out all of the so-so stuff and jammed 36 minutes with the best?

I hope that's the case. Look at the Toadies' 'Rubberneck' album... 11 songs, 36 minutes, and a fucking stellar album start to finish. Not a filler on there. If PJ can pull that off, this will be a great album. It's not the length I'm worried about, it's the stylistic direction they decide to take. And production... the last album is one of the worst-sounding albums I ever heard.

RedMosquito has the album length posted at 39 mins.........just a typo?

Who gives a fuck if its only 36 minutes long. That's over half an hour of kick ass music that I will be very thankful for. Some people just can't wait to fucking bitch...BTW I got laid off today so don't give me any shit or I just might explode...this new album is a ray of sunshine I can't wait to receive.

shit, man, I hate to hear that. Good luck to you.

All this crying and we have yet to hear the official stuff from 10c yet. I am sure once the EV shows are done, o maybe sooner, we will hear something.

It will also be funny to hear all the same people crying about 36 minutes in 3 months come back and say how much they love the albulm.

Broke his fingers on the caps lock key.

edit: I'm just going to add that I think it's crazy that people are complaining about the length of an album... Though it does not surprise me b/c PJ fans will generally bitch about anything.

like complaining about some guy bitching about a pearl jam album

i jest i jest im doing it too

Thraker: Brilliance, you made my point for me.

I, for one, am stoked for any amount of good music. I know I've had days that were simply amazing and memorable over *singles*, which log in at less than 36 minutes. Quality is right.

U R A Crazy Breed

at least wait till the fucking thing is out before you start bitching!! i mean bitching over the unconfirmed length of the new album just seems a bit much..even for this place!

Let's hear the album before we start complaining about it.

+1!
I can't understand these people bitching about the length of the new album! First and most important thing is that our long time waiting will be over soon! I am sure that the songs will be great, and therefore I don't mind the length and the number of songs on it (by the way, I saw another article in a german magazine and they wrote that the new album contains 14 songs!!!)! What if the new album has 42 minutes? 5 minutes difference and I am sure this whole shit and stupid discussion would not have been started!!

Quality not Quantity!! Nothing more to say!
