The "upcoming album" Thread

All I want to know is are there going to be any bass leads? *wishes*

I think it's not leaked (yet). I haven't seen it on net. But to be honest there is possibility that some promos are out. And that comment was made 8 days ago, so I think it was fake what he/she listened as a real thing. Or maybe he/she got a change to listen the real thing.

I spoke to Niklas and CM didn't even get the material to make promos until last week or so.

Oh, I know a thing or three that you don't Muahahaha

I wouldn't be doing that ^^ unless it was expected of me.

2. Will it really be a single instead of an MCD? I'm talking about the size of the CD-case here - will it be a thin one like singles usually are, or will it be of a regular size?

I know nothing of it, but from past experiences (oCaEN and ESA), my bets are definitely on the regular size

As singles are not usually released in the US the new disc can be ordered here

or maybe a forum member in the EU can help hook us up with Lost to Apathy -

I just got an update from centurymedia.

The Uk release date for Lost To Apathy is 15th Novemeber and it says its an MCD, not a single... I thought it was a single . Anyway its out sooner than I expected. I really can't wait.

Edit: Just realised this isnt new news to anyone but me Sowee for this SPAM.

@kc: check the official website from time to time. the tracklist for lta features 6 pieces between songs and other stuff, so i guess that's why they call it a mcd. when it comes to new and unreleased material, the "single" part of lta is obviously the edit of the album song, the remix for the endless feed, and the medley/mix kinda thing that goes by the name of "derivation tnb", tnb being the acronym for the opener on the new record.

Here just might be a nice new guessing-game to make the wait for the release-date seem a little shorter, namely what do you think TNB stands for?

Those who do know are not allowed to participate #points fingers at Rahvin and Tranquillian#

I will come with a more proper possible title later, but as of now my guess will be:

Thermo-Nuclear Bomb.

however this image could make its way into your mind i shudder to think...

...please don't participate again.

Ah - it's the first time Nicklasson was allowed to name a DT-song, it seems. :Spin:

My slightly more serious guess would be:

This Narrow Being - sounds a little DT'ish, doesn't it? While "Lost to Apathy" actually doesn't sound like a typical DT-title to me at all...

I think "Lost to apathy" sounds kinda neo-DT.

 

[Fathomless]

Practical Question: why is everything so hush-hush with the new album? are rahvin and tranquillian under some sort of gag order not to indulge our curiosities, or are they just being sadistic?

 

[rahvin]

@fathomless: for what concerns me, there is a running gag order which is always valid. i only divulge information that either (a) is available from other sources; (b) has been explicitly authorized by the band (usually, if a specific question pops up on these pages, i ask niklas straight away whether i can go public with the answer or not, and act accordingly); (c) i deem harmless/irrelevant.
things like the tracklist for the new album and other details about the songs are clearly not something i just go and mention to people. in addition to the "secrecy" issue, there's also the fact that i presume the band would prefer to be the first to announce the specifics of their work.

 

[Fathomless]

@rahvin: makes perfect sense. you see, the whole drawn-out process of the new dt album has me feeling like a child on december 12th who believes that he will probably live a full year before christmas. i.e., IWANTITIWANTITIWANTITIWANTITIWANTIT. now please. no delay. that is all.

impatiently,

fathomless

TNB = The N00b Basher. They've finally decided to do a tribute to Misanthrope.

 

[La Rocque]

Will DT break any new ground with this new disc?

i'll check, but i'm not sure they want to waste copies of it smashing them to the floor.

[rahvin]

only for neo-phytes.

or, more seriously: what do you expect? the objective value of a record is pretty hard to judge years after its release, let alone a couple of months before. the new dt is definitely not a 180° turn from what the band has done in the past. it's not ska. it's not electronic body music. it's not rap. i'm sorry to admit i haven't the faintest idea about how much you are going to find it diverse and ground-breaking, and it's impossible to mention unquestionable facts about it without sinking into banality: it's different from damage done, it's different from any other record they have done before, the quality is really high, they are not repeating a stale formula. but any dt fan would have been very surprised to discover it was otherwise.

 

[Schwedentod]

I'll add the new facts into post #1 now, so please have a look at the first page!

 

[Schwedentod]

Hello,

just added the 2 other bands touring with DT and Kreator to my 2nd post, namely Ektomorph and Hatesphere.

 

[Lost To Apathy]

And unless i'm terribly mistaken, the cover-art of Character looks like my avatar. Opinions?
