New Track On There Myspace Page- Graffiti Eyes :D
Really Different then anything else I have ever heard from them, but still a very cool song. :cool:

funkycfunkydo
nice! I'm getting pretty excited for this album

kyle*
"Taster" of Numbers is up on Myspace.

funkycfunkydo
I wonder how the lack of a major label will affect distribution. Will I be able to find this fine upcoming record at any of my local independent music stores?

also, download Warchild (grabbed from their twitter)

Graffiti Eyes was played on XMU on XM radio today. I've only heard them played once over about three years, so it was quite surprising.

They spelled it "Stellastar" =\

Sample of Sonja Cries up on the myspace

Ahhhhh. Sounds so awesome.

These samples are coming too early. Makes the wait worse.

I'm assuming the album will be available on iTunes the day of... I'll probably buy it off there and then get a hard copy whenever I see it in stores. I don't want to wait a few days after the launch.

funkycfunkydo
Robot is on the myspace now

Pre-Order madness! According to the email I just got, if you pre-order the cd here: http://www.upped.com/Civilized/M/B0029PUUF4.htm

you get an autographed cd and a shirt and a poster. Sounds pretty good to me.

Would so pay for that. But the link just brings me to a "currently out of stock page."

dead.star
Yeah. Gutted. I excitedly opened the link only to discover I'd missed the boat. But I only just got the mail! Unfair! :(

funkycfunkydo
hmmm. I didn't actually place an order when I got the email. mybe they're figuring out shirt sizing stuff? idk.

OnlyAnAddiction
I got that email early in the morning, so I was lucky enough to place an order.

kyle*
It's back in stock for $11.98 but doesn't say anything about the shirt and poster.

Tokyo Skies up on Myspace now.

dablazinsun
Two more weeks :D

bsoltan
Really looking forward to it. :) Next is to wait for them to tour over in the UK! :D

dablazinsun
The CD is now on pre order again, with the t-shirt and poster and autographed CD :D

I placed my order today.

Is this working for anyone in the UK? I can get as far as the place order page on Amazon.com but then it just keeps giving me the same page without progressing the order. Just wondering if it is because I'm outside the US. Really want this though!

not been able to order the signed/t shirt package in the uk, wont allow postage options, so have pre-ordered from cduniverse instead to just get the cd

kyle*
Four days. Can't believe it's almost time.

kyle*
Album has leaked. Two days until the official release!

It's up for pre-order on iTunes as well.

funkycfunkydo
I hope my pre-order package doesn't take forever to arrive.

I think the free shipping with mine said 5-7 days. I wonder how many packages were sold... Just to know how many CDs the band had to sign. Autographs always seemed pointless to me, but I'm excited about this one.

Edit: Are we going to have a separate thread for reactions, etc?

I think Prom Zombie alone deserves its own reaction thread.

Best song on the CD, Freak out a close second.

I got a friend to order me the collectors package of the album. So that's at least 2!

I'd have to go with Numbers and the People being tied for 2nd.

Move On and Sonja Cries are absolutely perfect back to back. Sonja Cries is actually my favorite of the album at the moment. But that changes ever hour. Prom Zombie is so splendidly unique and dance-y. Tokyo Skies is wonderful.

The whole album is great. Well, well worth the wait and not a let down in any way. The only thing I was surprised about was the pace. I was expecting a much more upbeat album when the band said Sonja Cries would be the only "slow" song, but there are a few tracks that are near the same level.

Also, I really like the change in Shawn's voice. Especially in Freak Out.

I'm in the UK and I have the same problem. Looks like a no-go :(

ReddersvilleBen
yeah, because of the way it's done with the free delivery through Amazon US, it won't let you process it with a UK address. Best way to get around it is if you know someone in the States who is willing to buy it for you and send it over.

Alex*
ive ordered it from cduniverse who have served me well in the past, even paying for the faster delivery service means the price isnt too much above what you'd pay in hmv in the uk

dablazinsun
I received my signed cd, t-shirt, and poster package today :)

funkycfunkydo
I didn't get mine today, and now I'm leaving town for a few days. At least it'll be here when I get back.

"By the way, the video for "Graffiti Eyes" looks really great. Can't wait for you all to see it soon."

So awesome.
