    Quality has never beeen an issue
    I want an album that sounds like it has some thought put into it.

    What makes you guys think that Backspacer is an album which hasn't some thought put into it and conclusively isn't a qualitative work? Just give a good listen to Just Breathe, Amongst The Waves, Unthought Known, Speed Of Sound, Force Of Nature and The End. I'm talking about the half album here.

    Just Breathe, Amongst the Waves and The End are ok, nothing really great imo.

    Unthought Known is awful. The intro of LBC mixed with horrid lyrics.

    I think Johnny Guitar, FoN, and SoS are actually really good. Pretty good or at least somethin new sonically...Some really great lyrics on Force, and maybe the coolest arrangement of any of their simpler punk-type songs in Johnny Guitar

  • Let's not forget that Matt has a second job. I read somewhere (I think on the Grunge report) that 2012 can expect to see new albums from Pearl Jam, Soundgarden and AIC. So, Matt's a busy dude. While difficult, we need to be realistic and understanding.

    Look at that price. Can we stop the "10c price gouging" talk now?

    One is a large company that expects you to buy more stuff and is why they can afford free shipping. Could 10c be cheaper I guess.

    Heh. Amazon wants me to open a store card account (which I just closed one a while ago) in order to save $10 off Lightning Bolt.

    Apparently, the only thing different is the exclusive "TBA" content coming in October...the physical packaging appears to be the same.

    Thats a price holder really. Amazon will charge you the cheapest price between now and release day. All youre doing is locking in a maximum price. Itll drop five bucks or so. Always does.

    It'll get cheaper

    Do people really complain about 10 Club's pricing or their obnoxious shipping charges to the United States? Amazon will only charge me $4 to ship this if I don't add more to my cart and get everything shipped for free instead. Plus, their price will lower as the release date gets closer as another poster said.

    All right. I was worried it was going to be in the 90s-100s

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

    I wouldn't really have a problem with that.

    Me too ;)

    Why is it so expensive? $14.88 for a cd from Amazon? Normally they're in the $8.99-$9.99 range. May be torrent time for a lot more people...
    I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.

    it was at 11.88 for the past month. It'll probably go lower near the release date
