Honestly, if the songs on ADTOE match the tone/mood of the titles...

I'm most excited to hear On The Backs Of Angels, like JLB said, it sounds really emotional and epic. And Breaking All Illusions, which just sounds badass!

The first song they recorded isn't necessarily Track 1 on the CD.

Yeah but that's ok.....it still sounds epic!

Every DT album is epic! And I'm really excited for this new album :)

I am guessing a screen from the keyboard display where it says stuff like 'Strings', 'Ragtime', 'Banjo', 'Meowing cats' and such.

You stumbled onto something here...'Meowing cats'.  We need a Meowing cat keyboard solo right smack in the middle of one of those jammin' instrumental interludes.  "Meowing cats On the Backs of Angels"?

Can I enact a rule where we can't use title abbreviations for the songs that have yet to come out?  Type the title of the songs with the full impetus they deserve, none of this casual familiarity until the album is released . . .

If this was a rule, I'd start referring to the songs by track number.

I'd invent cockney rhyming slang nicknames for them.

1. Untitled. (On the subject of which, what happens if a cockney needs to express an angel? ...Or an orange?)
2. Build Me Up Break Me Pogo.
3. Lost Not Egyptian.
4. This is the Butcher's.
5. The Shaman's Ballet.
6. Apple.
7. Far from Ocean's.
8. Breaking All Gods.
9. Beneath the Impulse.

Then I'd take the cockney rhyming names, and abbreviate those instead.

(NB: I only intended to do this as a silly two-minute joke but it turns out that none of these words fucking rhyme. Outcry, surface and angels are all impossible. DT are pre-emptively spiting my crap jokes.)

Pwned.  A for effort, though.

Anyway, because I haven't actually said anything on topic, yes, if the songs are as good as the song titles I'll be pretty happy.
