Whoa, I think I might like this new song more than most of the original album!

This seems a very out of the blue, premature re-release. Couldn't wait for the 10 year anniversary next year Jim? :grin: Not that I'm complaining

Well, looks like I jumped the gun on getting the Pre-Order through ATO Records. Bandcamp announced today that it will also be available through them and will include the download and streaming of the album. I always get stuff through Bandcamp when I can because of the exact same price because I can get it as a FLAC for sure and not the risk of getting just the MP3 version which usually comes in records these days. I sent them an e-mail asking if they could kindly refund me my money, so I can get it through Bandcamp. I hope it works.

Here's the Bandcamp link:

They Canceled my order earlier today! ATO got back to me very quickly (less than 24 hours). I went ahead and ordered my Vinyl from Bandcamp, and it wound up saving me about one dollar and some change. The biggest thing for me is that it will be available for streaming whenever I want it! I can already stream the original album right now and the one preview song. The other ones will be available on release day.

Go Team ATO!!!

When was this album recorded?  Some studio pics were posted and the only time I remember Jim's hair being that short was 2007 before Evil Urges rolled out.

Think his hair was short in 2009-10 around the MoF tours. Assuming Moving Away is from before Circuital came out

Based on an Instagram post today where he said he wrote a bunch of these songs after his accident in 2008, I'm guessing the photos posted were from around 2009?  He fell off the stage in October 2008, if I remember correctly.

Anyone else get this on Bandcamp?  It's released today, but the full album isn't available to download.  This really chaps my hide!

This is also available in Hi-Res 24-44.

pretty sure "Epichord" is the exact same as the Louisville Is For Lovers 6 version and that the Alt Version of "A New Life" is the same as the demo version that was a bonus download with the original release.  i don't remember how one got the bonus downloads, but it included that demo version and a Chris Funk remix of the same track.

Just got a notification on my phone from Bandcamp saying Jim had finally uploaded the whole album (including the bonus tracks) to Bandcamp, and I confirmed it on my phone! (6 days late isn't too bad, I guess). I'm just happy to have it!
