Earth isn't all that bad, would be mounds better if we got rid of the French.

and the Americans.

Perhaps, but that would leave a lot of unwanted jobs that the Americans enjoy doing, like communicating to the French. Now I know if the French were obliterated this wouldn't matter. But we still need McDonalds personnel and those who bag our groceries.

Yeah I like this record too. Some people I've spoken to don't like it for being too metally but I think it's a strength. Heart In A Cage is quality and I was pleasantly surprised to hear synth on Ask Me Anything.
So yeah, thumbs up.

I got it the day it came out and only played it twice. I like the album but haven't given it the love it needs. Still, Juicebox is a fantastic song. SOAG likes it too, don't you soag ;)

Oh and the digipack version is sweet, can change the cover round and stuff. Plus the lyric art stuff is sweet.

first three songs are brilliant, next five are very good, next six are nothing special.

not quite the return to form i was hoping for but there are some great songs on there, hopefully they'll stick around long enough to make the great album that i know they can.

I got it. I think it's really great and the most emotional stuf he's ever wrote. So much better than their last disk imo.

Can't wait to see them next week.
