interesting that he reiterates the comparison of the listening to entire album and a movie going experience. I've only listened to DT10 - D12 from front to back once each on the release days. (I believe DT10 was the first time the 75 minute continuous listening experience of an album was suggested by the band).

So the album will come out in September and according to Jordan they're still writing it? Given that MM will be on tour with UK in 3 weeks, they'll probably start recording pretty

At least now we know what JP meant when he said they had "started planting seeds" for the next album a year ago - it's cool that they've developed ideas so far ahead of the recording!

I wouldn't be surprised if this turned out to be a concept album, but I'm not going all OMG over it.

JR's got a problem with image editing apps.

"Hi, my name is Jordan and I'm an image-editoholic."

From JR's fb account:

"Today's pic from the studio:"

Did JP cut his hair, or is just the edited photo that is playing tricks?

My first thought was that it was an older picture back when he had short hair.

Excellent news that they have been working on ideas for a long time.

Still keeping fingers crossed for Kevin Shirley. I know the sound will be good if he is on board.

I wonder if he's putting effects on the pictures so we can't ninja search any fine details that may or may not be written on pieces of paper The laptop looks really cool in that most recent picture. It's like a portal to another dimension. I don't really mind all the effects, really. They look cool and stuff.

Well, I did mention to him and JP that someone here had taken a still of the frame from the video where part of FAS was showing on Jordan's tablet and programmed it to midi last album cycle, so...

It would be cool if Roth-era Van Halen was in the inspiration corner (which may no longer exist, R.I.P. since MP's departure).
What specifically about the Roth era? The aggressive and angry guitar tone on Fair Warning was what came to my mind

Sure, but also the attitude and catchy songwriting.

I'm super excited! I hope the album isn't as compressed as the last album. I think the new album will rawkkkk

There must be some kind of unblur feature that Blob can figure out.

So it's pretty much confirmed there will be keyboards on the album.

And they will be played by Jordan Rudess.

Why did that JR face remind me of UkaUka from Crash Bandicoot? o.o I think there's something wrong with me.

Also loltrolled cause the notes are blurred.

I like the white 30th Anniversary logo. I just noticed that this one doesn't have the "eyes" at the bottom of the zero, like the one on Facebook.

edit - or they're just harder to see?

JayOctavarium · « **Reply #1213 on:** April 03, 2015, 09:33:52 AM »

I wanna see Jordan troll us by posting something with music NOT blurred out... but upon translation we find it to be like I'm A Little Teapot.
