Just want to add support, I regularly wear my Into the Everflow shirt I got from last years fest when gigging out that said, if PW ever plays PPUSA I will be there front and center.
https://youtu.be/eEi2Ik3I-uo?t=2m51s Extremely high pitched noise around 2:51 on this Blind Guardian song makes me go fucking mad. Luckily I was able to notch it out of my own mp3 copy, but no idea how it went unnoticed.
No way with Jens Bogren?! Yes! I'm so relieved to hear that after being disappointed with Aqua's production, loved the song on it though. This new record is going to sound killer!
