elchode has heard it. He says it sounds pretty amazing and there are a lot of really good songs. he said some of the songs are slow and som eof the songs are fast. He also said that a couple of songs start out real slow and then it is not as slow but WHOA it like speeds up really fast and there is some bass and drums and guitar and singing and some screaming and yodelling and then it slows down and sort of just like real slow but then a sproradic part that really isn't fast as much as it it loud and then some of the other songs start out slow and they do this cool thing in the middle where there is like a chorus and then sometime there is a little bit of reverb and one time Patrick like playes the drums really fast and then sort of slow and Bo is like keeping up with a different tempo and it sort of sounds like that one song they did at that place when they were like playing all those other songs and then got quiet and Jim said something to the audiince and then tommy plays this killer line like DADADADADADADADAD DA  DA   DAADADDDADADADA and there's a snare roll but right after that they get real quiet and then play a song that's jello playing an aqua tent where the grass falls to one side hemp colors of the rights for all coming all over in different elemennts catsing big eyes in a rich prallel to moments
thats what Chode said

i've actually heard the album. the song "Circuital" isn't even on the album. it's mostly acapella except for the last song, "gorgoth" which is 28 minutes long and the only instrument is bongos with the rest of the band scatting about different books they've read over the last 4 years. it's pretty fascinating, but hardly their best.

Yeah, but I think it shows that the band has done the dreaded "m" word and mature. I mean just look at the flute solo at 5:23 in Hangin on to Black Metal. It shows Yim's baritone side quite beautifully even as Carl toots on the flute.  Still, when Nicole Atkins comes in on the secret track (Put Your Hands Up to Mine), it really comes across as a true-to-its-roots Electro-Americana Punk album, which in my opinion, shows just how far the boys have come since playing for pennies as shoeless mountain men at bistros in Memphis.

Kinda sounds like a combination of these
Van Halen - Runaround (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WaWu5LpOVxQ#)
A Perfect Circle - Imagine (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dunKAwRN3P8#)
The Lion King - Circle of Life (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwSKkKrUzUk#ws)
