[aprilethereal]

I don't think there was anything new...

Yep

I just realized, JM is not in that room. He is the one doing the vocals! I'm calling it now. JM scat solo.

[Perpetual Change]

Well, I called the first song as an instrumental intro/band anthem. Yeah!

Otherwise, kinda cool video. But lots of stuff we hear every time, plus still no new music. I don't know about you guys, but there's something kinda unexciting about how all these videos utilize ADTOE music.

So unless someone's got something on the CSI filter, the update was really just another tease.

[jonnybaxy]

so will that vocal bit be on?

[atmyne]

Well, I called the first song as an instrumental intro/band anthem. Yeah!

yep same here! 
I'm getting really sick of hearing that first part of BMUBMD.

[YtseJamittaja]

Lyrics for the new song:

"Pushaba boo ka keen
baam ripi cancan dudorucduan dadan deen"



EDIT: shit, too late...

[matte.braso]

so will that vocal bit be on?

I hope not...cause it's funny but I don't see the utility to put it into a song, I prefer other kind of effects between tracks (those in ADTOE were suggestive and atmospheric)

[Lucien]

I think it would be funny, and we don't actually know what song it's a part of, so it may or may not be out of place.


ENIGMA MACHINE, I JUST REALIZED

[MoraWintersoul]

I love Rich Chycki's "aw yiss mothafukin guitarrr solo" face while JP plays.

[Labrie1984]

What's the point in posting in studio videos with little new information. Bass solo...anthemic first song for live setting...cohesive album...I'd rather read it

[Shadow Ninja 2.0]

Well, you don't have to watch the videos if you don't want to.

[Lucien]

I bet the song with the weird vocals is Enigma Machine, just think about it.

[liran95]

I bet the song with the weird vocals is Enigma Machine, just think about it.

If EM will be the instrumental, I doubt it.

But I do hope this section will make it to the album.
But if you listen very closely, you can hear the word 'sample'.
I think they just tested it.

[Lucien]

bosk posted on the DT12 fact finder thread that "all three" in-studio videos were posted.

IS THIS THE LAST ONE/WE'RE GETTING A SINGLE/

[Labrie1984]

Little participation from James, Mike and John Myung on the videos. Labrie and Mangini are terribly funny!!!!!!!

[Labrie1984]

Rumors say that the awaited single will be posted by the time this thread has 100 pages-

You heard it here first, people. New single by the end of the week!

FTFY 

[cyberdrummer]

I still think JP might mean just Sleep Paralysis as a section is instrumental. I can't see a 2 or 3 minute track - which it must be if it's going to be an intro tape - being called a suite.

[Shadow2222]

I agree. Sleep Paralysis will play over the speakers, and then the band will come on to play the rest of the Suite.

[bosk1]

Rumors say that the awaited single will be posted by the time this thread has 100 pages-

Actually, yes.  AS long as this thread reaches 100 pages at precisely  , then, yes, the awaited single will be posted when this thread reaches 100 pages.

No, not quite that quickly.

That's what she.......... I mean, you're right.

[Lucien]

Well, since that was apparently the last studio video, I won't be surprised if we see the single in less than a week.

[Lucidity]

Well, since that was apparently the last studio video, I won't be surprised if we see the single in less than a week.

I would. I'd expect a single to be as far away from the newest Studio Update as all the other updates were from each other so DT stays on a consistent schedule. Maybe even farther away.

[Moor]

Great Vid !
Could someone transcribe what JP is saying at 1:02
I can't get it.

[aprilethereal]

I agree with hefdaddy here. I somehow feel they would have announced that already ("single will be released SOON....").

[MoraWintersoul]

I won't be surprised if we don't see it before half of August comes crawling by. And I'm fine with it, I'll try to only hear it twice. Or once if I dare.

[Joshin U]

Oh lord. I'm not sure how I feel about the sound effects at 0:34 

[Labrie1984]

Then, when all of us are enjoying it, a hundred more pages will be written. I hope that the majority of us are satisfied with the first song available:)

Only a week ago was  #2 released, and then a month and 10 days before that the first one was released. I wouldn't say "consistent".

[aprilethereal]

Oh... Forget what I said then
