MW released a new single last week(?) called "Embers". What did you all think? Honestly I thought it was alright, not spectacular. While MW is known for melding technicality with accessibility, Embers was a little too accessible for me. I'm sure the rest of the album will be better though.

If you watch their music video, you'll see they take a very agressive stance against music piracy (also check out www.industryembers.org). What do you think of that? I'm glad that someone is finally taking a stand against music piracy. Mutiny Within is a great example of a great band killed by piracy. They were offered a stadium tour with Dream Theater but they had to pass because they couldn't afford it; their album had rave reviews but only 10,000 sales (100,000 illegal downloads).
