We get it, you've heard the album. Congratulations.

Of course I've not heard it as the vast majority of us haven't since it's not being released until next month. No need to keep asking everyone who comments if we've heard things that haven't been released. Others have heard the album and are not doing that.

At some point, you start coming off like a braggart.

How does one go about hearing it?
Good luck with that. He's just interested in letting us all know he's heard it time and time again.

Whooooahh!! Chill out! I think you're reading too much into what i said! I forgot that 'Under The Bed' was a bonus track so was a little surprised that it hadn't been mentioned in others comments as for me it's one of the best songs on the album.

And i wouldn't call myself a 'braggart' as i only heard the thing once, i don't own it yet.

Apologies though if it sounded like i was being a show-off, i just wanted to join in and escalate the excitement around the album.

Sure, no problem at all. Sorry if I bit your face off.

I am looking forward to hearing the bonus tracks... all of 'em!

There was eight minutes between the post from Si and your post, so if what you say is true, there was enough time for you to see his correction before you posted (and if you're really that bored as your emoticon indicated, there was no need for you to respond).
What do you mean 'if what you say is true'? You calling me a liar NetCop?

Anyhoo... back on topic chaps. Sorry Si.

I believe you are "busted", as our American friends might say.

Not so. I had the text area up and was typing away, then nipped off to do something with my son (who I wanted to call Vincent... or Edgar. My wife liked neither, so we settled on Jake).

:)

When I returned I hit the submit key, got an alert saying the thread had new posts, just hit submit instead of scanning what had been posted.

Simple as that. No busts here you crazy fool (as our American friends might also say).

:)

Anyway, really liking these samples. Looking forward to getting my Classic Rock pack even more now. What, with this and the new Tom Waits album what a way to end a year!

I think that's a bit too much information.

The samples are interesting to say the least. One way to describe my feelings would be that for ex. Muscle of Love Album, one of the stand out tracks for me personally was "Crazy Little Child" because it was something unexpected and outside of his usual norm of how he sounds. (and the whole band for that matter). It seems the whole album is made up of "Crazy Little Childs" or "Children" if you prefer)

From what it looks like so far, and I haven't heard it all yet but so far it looks like I will appreciate this record on a bit of a different level. It won't be the norm of what we might expect from Alice but, I think it is a creative step in different directions. Which does give Alice the chance to show off his diversity. So far, little of what I have heard sounds "normal" to me. And, at this point I'm kind of happy about that. But after a while however, after the initial humour wears off, I'm not sure how many times I will be listening to Disco bloodbath. Yes, it is funny, and different and we have to give him credit for surprising even the sick things.

We'll see I guess. At least it isn't predictable and you gotta love that!

Very well said, I agree with much of that, it's the diversity on this album that i really respect. More than anything, this album is GREAT fun, something that can be in short supply in the world these days.

I've listened to the iTunes samples and my first reaction is one of disappointment. I was hoping for something more in line with the first Welcome To My Nightmare. Hopefully, the full length album grows on me.

I know what you mean. I'm afraid that my reaction when I first heard about it was one of dread. I read a bunch of stuff and then got excited. Then listened to the samples and liked them.

However, I think it is starting to sound more like a 'Goes 2 Hell' than a 'Welcome 2 My Nightmare' (yeah, I've listened to the samples a lot). Probably because I feel like Goes to Hell is a more eclectic work than Nightmare.

Who knows, once I get the album I may change my mind (again)!

Can't win with you!

I thought it would be funny, the Vincent bit, y'know...

Maybe its karma making us wait for that one song as we have both heard the rest of the album!!

Haha. Now that you've said that, i'm gonna wait until it's released for the tracks i'm yet to hear. Gotta leave some kind of excitement!

Having said that, i'm still really excited to get my hands on the fanpack and vinyl.

I am made of you will be my favorite, for sure. I love that kind of sound. It's not addictive, it's haunting.
And my second one so far, is caffeine.
