How about those of virgins also pledge to not get on anyone's case who chooses to go with the leaks. We'll be all dressed in white and shit, and then bring out the leather on the drop date

I think if I can quit smoking,  I can wait for the offical release date for my "official release." 

So, it seems everyone is going with "Circuital" as the album's title?
The fact that my heart's beating is all the proof you need.

Is it possible to regain your MMJ release virginity, to re-grow your official release hymen?  If so, I'm in.  The run up to EU was, as Tracy says, pretty brutal around here.

I caved and listened to a leak (although I didn't discuss it) and was disappointed.  It wasn't the final mix (sounded clipped) and I felt like it ruined the first listen of the release for me - IMO you need the full awesomeness of the new songs in the way the band want them to be listened to.

The trouble with the straight and the narrow is it's so thin, I keep sliding off to the side

Just got it off soulseek.  It's too short, I wish it rocked harder, and it needs more reverb.  I'd put it just above EU and below everything else.  I give it a solid c+  :-*

I can't wait for some awesome reviews like that!!

It's so much more civil around here these days.  I figured it would go the other direction.

Give it time -- in fact, I think it's about to begin with some of the info coming from RS.

Here are the rules on how to regrow/maintain your virginity, all without the help of Jesus.


       
  • No listening to leaks. Don't even "put it in for a second to see what it feels like". It will feel good and you won't want to stop
  • If the band releases a song officially as a single for promo reasons or radio play, it will be fair game
  • If the band plays any shows prior to the release and new songs are played, it is fair game
  • Reading reviews is like looking at porn. It may turn you on, so just do it at your own risk. There's nothing wrong with that, but it may make you a sinner
  • If you're going to do it, do it right, and BUY the album. You're a fan, act like it.
I'll repost this in the first post too because, why not.

:thumbsup:  Hey, if it leaks I'm gonna listen to it.  Of course I'm still gonna order whatever primo uber deluxe special edition vinyl package that is offered.  BUT, just for you guys, I won't splash it all over the forum, just my facebook page ;D  Am I a lesser being?

I agree with Sweatboard.  I'd put it just above EU and it could use even more reverb.

I would be very very happy with a release date, album title, or any official information. 3 months seems soon for there being no info.

Didn't EU really have no big information until the SXSW set?

I remember listening to that nonstop at work for the longest time on NPR. I heard that before anything else actually

The June release date for EU was announced in January.   I think release date timing has compressed since 08 (see: radiohead  :) ) but it really feels like we should know more by now.

are we gonna get to do cd release parties again?

for EU, Sean and I had about 8 people...but after T5, there are a ton more NY vicinity-ers who know each other...
but come on...there's nothing sexy about poop. Nothing.  -bbill

Good rules, but I may need Jesus to stay strong.

my goal is to simply not listen until a perfect copy is available.  I'm going to buy it regardless but I have nowhere near enough will power to resist a fresh MMJ record early.  haven't listened to any of the new songs more than a couple times,  must wait until the supreme version is available.  Are they self releasing via the website at all?  instant download via this site would work for sure without a doubt.  can't fuckin wait.
