It's fucking great so far! I'm kinda letting myself have the guilty pleasure, as it's still really poppy.. but there are some fucking gems on this album. John Fru is playing guitar solos on every song; more often than not, shredding like the good old days. It's melodically vibrant all throughout, but does manage to rock the fuck out a lot too!

Anyone one else willing to admit it??

See, i'm waiting till it comes out but it makes me so happy to hear people who have it talking about it so glowingly!!

What are yr favourite tracks so far??

i dont know. i havent even finished listening. but seriously, im digging every single song. i was pretty disappointed with their last 2 albums, but this is different. i believe them when they're saying it's the best album they could have possibly made. each guy is at his best here. i'm getting all sappy over it.

I'm so proud of my boys...

When you get it, you'll enjoy it for one reason or another. I'd go so far as to say it's their opus.

Wow...that's v cool! I have read a coupla reviews and John's been getting so much praise it's not funny! I can't wait to get my hands on it!!!

he's my new guitar hero. and his melody is everywhere on this record. he's a fucking genius, and im glad he's getting along with the rick rubin again. good.

no one else listened yet?!?!
