    What about Ole? For me it's like the sequence of Supersonic, kind of. Fast, punk-rock, happy songs.

    Obviously we want Of the Earth to be on the new record. I wouldn't mind if they just kept the live performance of it on the new album. Especially this version

    Maybe I'm the only one, but I don't like of The Earth in the slightest. To me it's a self-indulgent hodge-podge of random and mediocre song parts, played in a key which doesn't lend itself to the way Eddie sings nowadays.

    I am very certain that both songs are not going to make it to the new album, but a man is allowed to dream right?

  • My guess is that the new album sounds like Backspacer 2.

    I wouldn't really have a problem with that.

  • Backspacers older angrier brother? A wee bit darker and about 3 songs longer! That'll do nicely for me .. Happy new year- should be a good one!

    I'll admit - if it were Eddie and company farting on a snare drum for 37 minutes, I'd still probably buy it...

    I like 'Counting the Days' for a title and it can be dedicated to The South ;)

    I am the most excited for new music runnningaround.gif
  • Of The Earth isn't even being recorded in the studio, so no, it won't be on the new record. They have said they made several attempts at recording it, but it never sounded the way they wanted it to.
    I would highly doubt they'd throw an old, given-away-for-free-download song (Ole will have been out for a year by the time the new record comes out, at LEAST) onto a new record.

    I know they would never do it, but I would love a very dark lyric/sounding album.
