Album's out tomorrow (the 12th), and if you grab it through iTunes you get 2 bonus tracks (one of which is live). This album is solid.

This comes out tomorrow?

I actually saw it out last week at FYE. Almost bought it, but I didn't have the cash. Had no idea that it wasn't supposed to be out yet.

I did like one tune of theirs, though I never got around to giving the rest a chance. At any rate, this looks promising, so I'll start with the brand new album.

New album's heavier than the last one, but "Fables..." is a ridiculously good album too.

I'm listening now and I'm surprised how much heavier the new one is compared to the last one. So far I'm loving it.

Ditto

I was worried they'd go too far into straight heavy rock and lose some of their uniqueness, but they didn't, it's just a darker, heavier version of their sound

Listening now. Production sounds better than than the older stuff that I've listened to. This is a breath of fresh air. Also, I love the bombastic song titles.
