    "Sonic Highways" out Nov 10th!

    A Monday? I thought albums were always released on Tuesdays?

    Shit,I can't believe I never checked this part of the site.Foo talk.Love it!!!

    Should be an announcement on Richmond show really soon.Some say it will be a tag along to the Voodoo fest Halloween show.
    Anyone going to Voodoo?I got a hotel reserved but I'm trying to hold out until new tour announcement breaks.I would rather see them in a non festival setting.

    "Produced by Butch Vig and Foo Fighters, Sonic Highways clocks in at just over 44 minutes"

    I thought Dave said this was going to be their longest album?

    Great news. Hopefully they'll be releasing a single soon. I'd imagine a huge tour announcement will be coming up too.....hoping for a proper Chicago show this tour. They used Lollapalooza as their Chicago date when they toured for Wasting Light.

    I just pre-ordered the new CD. Nice to have something to wait this Fall, hopefully not as long as with LB :P ..

    Longest album? that would be kinda hard to do unless they do another double album. I think In Your Honor has that record.

    8 songs though? kinda disappointed in that but if they are solid songs i can forgive them ;)

    I'd bet good money every city used as a recording spot get a very proper show.In fact a Chicago show would be a great one to fly up for.Count me in.

    I remember hearing there was a lot of additional demos and Ideas thrown around.I think it was Butch who was talking about it during the DC sessions.Maybe get a b side or 2.

    Awesome! I am debating it... but leaning toward the Vinyl+ Tshirt + Flag bundle.

    9 different sleeves. Do you think that means that if you dont order a specific sleeve from the website that you get the FOREVER sleeve from other outlets. The UK shop doesnt let you pick a sleeve so its either the FOREVER sleeve or will it be the combined images. I immediately thought of getting the Seattle sleeve but I think I like a lot of the others better. Best album sleeve Ive seen in a long time.

    I read somewhere that you can only choose the cover when ordering directly from FF website. I'm sure retailers will have all 9 in stock but once they run out, then they run out. I'm not really a fan of the top 3 because there is so much sky and 'wasted space'. I'm leaning towards DC at the moment, but I'm sure that's going to change. I think the Forever sleeve will be the most common one sold in stores So I want to get one others.

    I'm reading the blurb over and over. I get the part that the first press will have the sleeve variations. I live in the UK and it will be about £4 more expensive to order from the US but it would be good to choose the sleeve. If I order from Amazon it is much cheaper but then you get what you get. It does sound like the different sleeves will be everywhere til they run out. I think I might order from Amazon and look around locally when it comes out to get the best sleeve. I do like the Forever sleeve but it seems most likely for any represses.

    Finally watched Sound City last night. Very entertaining and I loved watching the extras with From Can to Can't.

    The song with Corey Taylor is awesome.
