Grover "The guy who runs the label" sure was waving the finished product around for show and tell. I was kinda depressed that there weren't any armed guards.

Basically if you didn't look at the track listing you would think it was two songs. They are basically both stand alones. It's the fact that they are both on one track that is confusing.

Nah not really. IMO the interludes /stories define the story. That is really why they want you to focus on it as a whole.

Joe is going to morph into a dragon and scratch like a madman during this bridge live.

The second time around really was amazing. I had doubts the first time. I heard "my" epic favorites, then the second time around the less aggressive songs became awesome. If only I could have the Blackout single until 9/14 or Wretches and Kings.

I will add that Blackout is odd because where TC accomplishes basically mashing two songs together, Blackout somewhat fails. Both parts are great just very very odd together. You'll shit bricks when you hear this song. If you don't know what "The Great Destroyer" is by NIN, find it.

TWAS I. Glad Im known as the Muse guy. LP was first then Muse just so everybody is clear.

If your speakers are not smoking after listening to this record you've failed at the journey.

1. I also had a comment about Tron sounding, good intro, gets you amped 2. Speech, I forgot the theme but I remember it is powerful 3. Solid much better with song 2 interlude 4. I wrote down 20 seconds of Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disneyland. 5. Heavy, heavy song I remember there was a section with Chester signing over a Muse type electro guitar track I caught the phrase "forfeit the game!!!!!" 6. Don't recall/ Not blown away 7. Spacey noises 8. This song has EVERYTHING. Rapping/singing aggressive/ soft and the beat kicks in perfectly on every verse 9. New Favorite LP song knocking Faint of the list (NIN Great Destroyer meets New Divide techno bridge) 10. In Stereo kick with There they go pace! Full of Win Chanting Front back side to side at the end. HELL OF A LIVE SONG 11. Cool outro with a space shuttle launch noise repeats the main phrase of the speech then morphs into robotic voice! 12. Good, don't recall too much 13. Dont remember I wrote down "Steven Hawking" Yes Im going to hell but just wait and see for yourself 14. Win 15. NOT HERO OF WAR. Much more powerful but almost stripped. Fitting end to the story of ATS! I think people will be slightly more receptive to this because the tempo is similar but due to the electronic nature of the songs it feels more aggressive

While the review gets going I'll hit some other stuff not related to the songs - We got to see the album art. There is ZERO writing on the cover! The Holifoil is bad ass - 20 people listened to the cd in a room with no headphones just a ton of speakers. First time around was solid. "Grover" "The guy who runs the label" took requests and played 6 songs a second time FULL BLAST and damn did it make a difference! - The next single is already set but not disclosed - The department of homeland security was NOT guarding the record - Label was somewhat surprised at the positive feedback compared to other events - Journey indeed - LP SWAG! (CDs and posters) - No members of LP were in attendance - We are now convinced (Thanks Adam/Jess) that the laser show will pwn your face! - LP was basically given full artistic freedom on ATS Think that was about it Words cannot describe how appreciative of the selection I am! TY Adam

I'm too amped to recall everything. Ill piggie back of your post when you throw it up. BTW Blackout was AH-MAZ-ING

OMFG epic nearly heard that shit twice! Review inc...

Thanks for the heads up. See you tonight!?

DAMNIT KROQ just played the Q for the what Mike is now calling "Brunch" with K&B/ caller 20 wins blah blah balh. I spammed the KROQ number and heard "KROQ caller 19!" Son of a... Hopefully I can get through for steet team since my employer just recently blocked CBS radio from their online server!!!!!!

Clothing optional?

I'm only thinking they'll play 2-3 ATS songs in NY. Based off of what they pulled out for M2M at Webster (NMS, GU, WID) the new songs are more complicated and with all the press they'll probably tinker more on the road to add more as the shows go on.

Good news. I wasn't sure how official this was going to be so I didn't know if they were going for a decent set-up to practice for the tour. Ala, Joes description of an eyegasm on stage. Got my fingers crossed it'll be after 9/7 when I get back.

I am having a little luck getting in contact with "Lightning" from KROQ about any other details. I'm just looking for a date of when this will take place. The contest ends 9/3 and I'd imagine the gear needs 3-4 days to get from LA to NY. I'm going to the listening event tonight then flying to Cincinatti tomorrow coming back Monday then Laser show Tuesday! Got my fingers crossed to pull a trifecta and go to all three but I don't know if I should get my hopes up if the show will be in LA while I'm gone.

If Adam is lurking, when will the confirmations/ tickets for LPUX members be sent out? Also will there be an official M&G application?

Cool new insight. Gotta love behind the scenes stuff.

sweet I'll prob leave a little earler because Im coming from the inland empire. Sould only take 1:15 with no traffic so I just gotta get lucky with traffic. Your goin to the laser show too right? Im freakin excited!

WIN! EPIC Indeed! Two once in a lifetime LP events in 8 days! What time you getting to WBR MrInfluXion?

grats! Now Im bummed. I was freakin amped to go but I didnt get the golden ticket. Oh well

Adam through up the email details on the LPU news page at around 9:45am EST

I'm wondering how many they actaully put out. I haven't seen anybody who is successful on any of the forums. Not even ebay is blowin up with new auctions...
