(ill preface this with knowledge of my exrtemely high standards for pj)meh, thats my original feeling right after ive listened to it three times now,starts off strong real strong with gonna see... got some(my favorite song so far)andthe fixer but then seems to lose direction after that, still a decent album but like s/t doesnt have great flow or purpose, johnny guitar is a song that will probably grow on me as i listen to it more, just breathe is a beautiful song, amongst the waves was the one song besides got some and the end that i was really excited for and its just ok, maybe im just sick of water and ocean references in almost all of their songs lately, unthought known,meh ok tune,supersonic most of us had already heard andi like it fun fast song, speed of sound is another ok track along with force of nature just pretty forgettable and maybe im noticing as much as i love matt cameron maybe hes too much of a good thing it seems with matt pj tries to cram too much music into their songs and it crowds up the flow of their mojo, maybe its just me, but the final take, the end is another cool ed song as always pj has always had great bookends with their albums and the end leaves you wanting more, again no terrible political songs here, the worst backspacer tracks are still quality tracks, just not much ooo and aaahhhs here i think got some and just breathe will be the follow up singles,i give it 3.5 outta 5 stars, peace.

kind of hard to tell since you dont give a descripton to any of the songs except a song we have already heard. ( supersonic ) . because of that many people are going to call bullshit here.
anyway, I'm sure it will grow on you.
peace.

becuase you were too lazy to type out the rest of a song title.
You do seem to have a love affair with the comma though.
So you are reviewing the album based on the snippets that were on Amazon?
He/she is implying they have heard ALL of the album - still no leak as far as I can see...
nothing i guess, besides not really giving us any information on the songs .
thats cool though. but to just say " name of song " meh dont really say much at all does it ?
he/she basically just named all the songs on the album, but didnt really give us any info other than " meh ".
like i said , thats fine........ but.........

Well that's because you're choosing to view it as a black or white situation.
LOL.
A leak is not the person who is dowloading's fault.

I find it hilarious that you just reviewed album snippets. I cant believe what I just read. Something along the lines of...Song Name, meh. Supersonic, fast and fun. Ridiculous.

What if I have bought the CD through 10C and will also buy the vinyl version. Then I'll also pay 2 bucks for track through the Rock Band store. Does that also make me a dirt bag if I download a leaked version?
If he got a hold of the songs, and gave that review, that makes it about 3 times worse. If he really heard the album and then wrote that out hes a complete idiot.
That has to be the most moronic statement about downloading music illegally I have ever seen.
told ya'.

Not if it's available.
The person WHO MADE IT AVAILABLE should be held responsible.

In a word. Yes. If they wanted you to have it now, you would have it now. This selfish entitlement attitude is ridiculous. Not to mention most music and everything else these days uses bittorrent. The minute you have downloaded enough you are then seeding to the next person and so on and so on. How do you know if those people "pre-ordered". You don't and you end up contributing to the distribution. Grow up and wait for the release. If you can't afford $10 for an album you have bigger problems you should be dealing with.
I have nothing further for this infantile train of thought. Move along.

You sound like a real joy to hang out with. :rolleyes:

That's funny considering you've managed to call someone 'moronic' and a 'dirt bag' all in the same thread. Hello kettle, I'm pot.

:roll: I did say I was purchasing the album at least three times so don't know where your $10 comment comes from. You do have a point on the bittorrent seeding though.....
