    Just Breathe
    Amongst The Waves
    Speed Of Sound
    Gonna See My Friend
    Unthought Known
    The End
    Supersonic
    Force Of Nature
    The Fixer
    Johnny Guitar
    Got Some

    Of course this will probably all change once the album drops, but so far....And I can honestly say there isn't one that I don't like the sound of, something I couldn't say for their last three albums.

    Got Some- Tremendous
    The Fixer- Eh at first, but I think it is better sounding live (kind of like DTE on some nights)
    Amongst the Waves- So far so good, only heard a snippet.


    Ok everyone......FLAME ON!!!!!!!....................


    Just Breathe- Pretty song....sounds like it should be on an Ed Solo Record or was an Into the Wild outtake.
  • tcaporaletcaporale Posts: 1,577

    man, people seem really down on the fixer. not that i think it's one of their best recent songs, but i like it a lot, and even moreso now that i've heard it live. i like got some, the fixer, and supersonic about the same so far, we'll see how they grow on me. i haven't heard the others but can't wait based on the comments i've seen here.

    All of them sound really good though. 30 sec. clips can be a bit inaccurate, however, in really showcasing how good a song is.

    If the remaining portions of the songs are as good as those clips, this album could be a favorite.

    Just checked out the Amazon UK preview.

    Im not that impressed... I know I know its not fair to judge a record by its sound clips but I have been hearing a lot of backspacer content and its not really making me proud, know what I mean? if it wasnt for Gonna See My Friend I would have been really disappointed.


    My Ranking

    Gonna See My Friend
    Just Breathe
    Got Some
    Unknown Thought
    The End
    The Fixer
    Supersonic
    Force of Nature
    Johnny Guitar
    Amongst the Waves
    Speed of Sound

    I could do without the last three...

    and more importantly judging the songs on them...i know we're all anxious to hear the album but ranking 30 seconds is a little silly...but to each his own :D

    and since i've only heard 2 songs i'll say that i like supersonic better than fixer

    As difficult as it is to not listen to these I don't want to ruin my enjoyment of the album when we can hear the song's in full. In the past I've found that listening to the song snippets tends to color your perception of the full song.
    So this life is sacrifice...

    The Fixer is a great song, but it's seemingly surrounded by a lot of very impressive material.
