Oh alright, yeah I haven't played with him at all. Mostly been playing with a group of friends from school.

Oh wow somehow I missed that

Seems like the US is far behind in tech, so we're forced to print promos for the american jurnos as they can't be arsed to use the internett to find out about the music he he

Some people in the USA still listen to 8-track. Perhaps if the promo was released in that format, more of us would have access to it.

 

[Tabletwister]

Great news! Holding on till friday then.

 

[Ond]

Ok, we know the date. How about telling us the time of release?

Looking forward to it.

That`s why i asked...

Or perhaps that promo doesn't contain the full album but something like 3 or 4 tracks instead. I guess that could be considered some kind of promo too.

Well I'm not so sure about this 'watermarked' tracks because Dark Tranquillity did the exact same thing, and the album has already leaked. I don't want to sound nasty or rough, but I think it's very difficult to avoid a leak. The journalists who got the DT promo even had to sign a contract (pretty impressive IMO) that said that there'd be legal consequences if they leaked the album. Even with that, the album has leaked, which is kind of sad.

But that's only one example. I have noticed that lesser amount of albums leak in advance these days. Or if they do leak, it happens only few days or one week before the official release. And quality of those albums that do leak is usually poor. Bigger metal bands like DT tend to stir up more movement (so to speak) and thus advance leak becomes more possible. Borknagar, on the other hand, isn't that big so maybe Universal won't leak in advance. Or if it does I doubt the quality would be good.

That doesn`t really matter to me. Just for the collection and for me as a fan.

Now we'll just have to wait until whomever is uploading it wakes up.

Edit: Wake up! It's Friday the 29th!

[jamj1974]

No new song...whats wrong?

Why do they give an annunciation a week before streaming anyway? Why not just put one of the songs online.
Is it necessary to plan these things?

They are building hype. It's all about PR.
