Have fun and write some good stuff! It sucks that both Laura and me couldn't make the prelistening session but we were informed on a short notice and live too far away from Hamburg, and the 7th will already be too late!

Woah, thank you so much for that!!!

OMG dude, I know this is random as fuck but I LOVE your signature - it made me laugh! ... and yeah, I would love to hear the full album and maybe 1 or 2 Julien-K songs. An Orgy cover of "Fiction," as someone suggested, would be a great choice as well. I'm also excited to hear the Misfits cover!

I'm a sucker for the 2006 Julien-K remix. I just love how electronic the song is, and how well it fits! Buuut... I like the studio version, too! The intro riffs are heavier than expected - very nice! I also liked the 2001 acoustic version but I would love to hear that in an even better quality, actually! It's always difficult to compare live versions with studio tracks imo.

!!!! YES! I seem to agree a lot with you dude! *laughs* And the atmosphere and "warmth" that this song creates is just insane! Totally one of the best songs on the album - it was my personal surprise!

Hmm, not really my favorite so far. Need to give it some more listens!

Oh yes, the chorus riffs also gave me goosebumps. But I love the studio version and the live acoustic version equally

So far my favorites are: "Let Down": The studio version turned out to be TOTALLY amazing imo! Love the electronic elements in it, and the guitar riffs in the chorus just kick ass! Regarding the atmosphere and overall style of the song, it reminds me a lot of my favorite Julien-K song "Forever"! "Give Me Your Name": Woah, this is some great love ballad! I expected some real sobstuff so I was very surprised how cool it turned out! And it has a romantic, The Cure-like vibe which I really dig! "Walking In Circles": The intro is hella amazing, and the rest is also as good as expected! "Condemned": Now this is some heavy stuff! I didn't expect such a raw, wild, punk-style song, and I must say: It suits the guys well! I especially love how well Chester's voice and Amir's guitar in the solo go along! "In The Darkness": Yes, the intro is a bit weird but once again I really like the dark, almost gloomy atmosphere that is built up throughout the song. Chester's vocals are very strong and the chorus is epic!

Totally love that song and would consider it among my faves! Amir's guitar solo is BADASS and goes along well with Chester's screaming. I also like Chester's vocals in general in this song.

Umm no, I don't think so, as I said before. I could however imagine Chester to come back out on Julien-K shows in order to perform some DBS songs together.

Haven't they used a sample of the Nine Inch Nails song "Something I Can Never Have" as a intro to some shows/songs before?

I'm actually tired of hearing "Lying From You" so I would not mind having it dropped. I wouldn't miss SIB that much as well.

What about Nameless?

I fully agree!

Yep, he used to be a hairdresser and cosmetologist!

Really like those pics (especially the ones of Chester, Ryan and Amir wrapped up in the black sheet) but yeah, I'm also missing the lyrics!

Yes please! How about starting with that at the Hamburg show on Wednesday?

I actually wonder how he can pull off jumping on a trampoline that wildly, considering he has had a lot of problems with his back and overall physical condition in the past. ... and I would have loved to see Ryan and Amir jumping on the trampoline as well because the booklet proves that they also made trampoline shots from them!

I actually thought the same thing but we don't know. I just know that I loved Gilmore's production on the first two albums a lot more than what Rick Rubin did with MTM. By the way, this was a really interesting interview with great questions and great answers! I enjoyed the read a lot!

Ohh, nice!! I think this is an obvious hint for an US tour, and the time span (end of November/beginning of December) would also make sense, I guess. Maybe they are gonna do a real Europe tour at the beginning of November or in mid-November then! Not too fond of the other artists, but Breaking Benjamin and Papa Roach are cool!

Agreed. I wonder if Ryan maybe did Chester's hair *laughs*

Me and Laura from JULIEN-K GERMANY will both be there So watch out for the two girls in the white Julien-K shirts *laughs*

Umm right, why no girlies? That kinda sucks! But I don't like the designs that much anyway so it's okay. I'm gonna wait for cooler ones that are also available as girlies! ... Or just buy another Julien-K one if they finally have the white girlie in stock again

Hahaha, yes please, but with Ryan singing the lead, not Chester

JULIEN-K GERMANY (aka Laura and me) will be there for sure!! Hope to see many of you in Hamburg!
