So, i somehow managed to discover the whole album today. I've pre ordered it so i didn't really feel bad, well i do feel bad for listening to it before release but once i saw it i couldn't help it . First impression - INCREDIBLE! This album is absolutely amazing, you guys are going to be blown away when you hear it. To describe it in 2 words... Blind Melon. The music sounds as tight as ever, lyrics are awesome, it's defiantly the same blind melon we've all come to know and love. Some people are worried that Travis won't deliver on par with Shannon, but no body could ever match the creative genius that was Shannon Hoon. But like AC/DC Blind Melon has breathed new life into their band with a new singer. I won't say how i obtained the album and i do not encourage piracy of any kind.

Yeah, are we talking about the version that was available last year, which everyone has heard, and has been leaked everywhere? Or are we talking about the actual new album?

the actual album has also leaked on torrent sites. but if you dont want to DL it, you can listen on their page legally.

It's not as exciting listening to the album you've just downloaded compared with listening to the CD which you just bought

I listened to the leaked "early" version. I'll wait for the full studio version. Something to look forward too.

Did anyone ever find out what the deal was with the album pre-order? It said limited 500, but seems like everyone (including me) got one. Dunno, it has been charged to my credit card, so I hope this isn't all jacked up!

Very tempting knowing I could hear the full release, like, now....but 15 days is just too close, I want the full experience, c.d. smell, looking at the booklet while hearing the songs, etc. I deflowered myself with the pre-master version and that was bad enough, ........ but I don't think there was even a release date at that time. That was a little much to ask. But 15 days and 10 or 12 bucks isn't too big of an obstacle for me to overcome. I just hope it's available in all the normal places, ie best buy, circuit city, etc.

I thought dano was talking about the official release, Ive heard the premastered leaked copy obviously.... I know the songs by heart. I cheated and heard Father Time on the AMG page along with the updated Cheatum street. I can't wait to hear the whole thing on a real CD in its entirety. Not long now at all....

Yeah I too have been just checking out the new songs on their website - legally, and when the CD finally hits I will definitely shell out the $15 for it to fully support the band.

ive just listened to the prematered version and i absolutely love it, I know all the songs ajajj and ive been tryign to play them i wasnt going to buy the album cause it was 50 USD and i absolutely don't have 50 dollars... so i was going to be miserable all my life.... but th eother day checking amazon i found they also have the album available for pre order (not with the shirt, sticker and digital version) and it was $11 USD, so i think i'm gonna have to buy it that way if I really want to have the album someday, I wish i could buy the whole pack with the shirt and everythign but i guess i can live withouth the shirt ejee, so so far i'm, getting the new album as my birthday present (from me to me jaja) I can't wait!!
