Hey! LOL

Guitar parts sound clearer, vocals sound clearer too?

The stuff that has been released, I guess, is a B-album...? I dunno if that makes sense. B-version of the album. CHARLIE BROWN.

Is someone recording?! MUST COMPARE.

Does that mean I should listen to the whole leak now? :D

MX playing in the background.. and now Hurts Like Heaven!

I guess, no more dark room with glowy environment..? Instead, elephants, and desert!

I thought they usually don't comment on leaks? It would have been a nice surprise to know we are listening to the REAL thing come Oct. 24 (or whenever it's released officially in your country).

Maybe when it's released in Japan... but not right now, and if you do find one, it's probably just transcoded up to 320kbps from the leak that's out (not really 320kb quality)

Cool! Did anyone try this with a live version?

Couldn't resist listening to those tracks we've heard at festivals.. but the rest of the album, I'm not touching. From all I've read, should be a great listen :)

Not a good idea, only if you can't resist listening to them in the first place. Lots of bands out there play new material before it's released on album, EP, etc. But like many others have said, if you made the choice to listen to those new songs played at their shows this summer.. then you can't just blame them, when it wasn't like they were suddenly being overplayed everywhere on the radio. I hope those who waited, enjoy the album fresh :)

You ruined the effect ;)

It can't be that hard to find, just googling it should give you some downloads!

Hm.. maybe I'm not listening close enough, but it's Chris in one verse, then Rihanna, and then both of them together pretty much for the rest of the song?

Yes, it's the 'leak' of the day :)

Does it really sound more like a song from Rihanna.. come on! (IMHO)

From what I know, it was from a radio stream.

Hey, we have the rest of the album to enjoy listening to Chris... I don't mind hearing Rihanna on this song a bit more than Chris. 8/10, probably gonna drop to 7.5 later on.

Maan, I don't know if I should listen to this, or wait for the album.. I could always just listen to the studio versions of the songs we've already heard at festivals :S

Fringe Fridays :D

It's not! Just have to detune like one string, and use a capo. Chords are simple enough :)

High five! :lol:

I believe that is the point of a pre-order, to get it to you on the day of release (if all goes well) :) Don't think the shipping option selected changes it in these cases!

Cool, sounds like a good idea!
