I like this.  Empire for me.  Stop being double minded!  Don't sign up for both.  You fence sitters have to pick a side!

I'm not choosing a side without more details, even if Empire generally = bad and Rebellion generally = good.

Until we have more info this is meangingless :lol


May as well have a poll :

What's your favourite song on the new album ?

3 or 6 ?

That doesn't work though. You're assuming that the new album will have more than two songs.  :)

Not picking a side until I have a frickin clue what this is all about. Probably won't even then because all I care about is the music.

I picked Ravenskill Rebel Militia because fuck The Man. :hat

Rodni Demental

Considering we have zero info to base our decisions on...

Yeah I picked Ravenskill Rebel Militia cause the Northern Empire sounds like a bunch of dicks.  ::) No offence to anyone who picked it, I'm simply projecting at this point.  :eek

The Great Northern Empire = 22
Ravenskill Rebel Militia = 22

twenty two = 9

13 + 9 = 22

22 will be the name of the LP







AboutToCrash

I wonder if they do a disc for both sides? that would be pretty cool

2 CD with 11 tracks / CD = 22 songs

We know absolutely nothing more than this.

Well they've done a great job sending us into a frenzy then.

That's not true, we also know that according to the 'and so it begins...' FB post of JP we can see that there's an acoustic guitar featured on the album, so there's that.

A double concept album seems plausible now.  DT could play each album in its entirety, alternating nights (Set A: Great Northern Empire, Set B: Ravenskill Militia).  The encore could be a few selections from the DT catalog.

Fans could actually vote on which set they wanted to see that night.

The second leg could feature an interspersed set where the two halves were no longer divided.

Or DT could play both sides in An Evening With format.

Just some speculation.

Clearly they knew there would be two topics talking about the same thing. Except that analogy is backwards because that describes two paths converging rather than one path dividing. Maybe the album is about these two topics in reverse!!!111 :hat

There is also hair on mixing board on both pictures they posted. There will be some hair on the album and I think it's not Jordan's.

They'll be writing the music for an incoming RPG, it's not that hard.

The Great Northern Empire = 22
Ravenskill Rebel Militia = 22

twenty two = 9

13 + 9 = 22

22 will be the name of the LP

And 13=5+8

8-5=3

The square root of 9 is 3.

A square has 4 sides.

The Root of All Evil is the fourth song in the AA suite.

The Root of All Evil is the first song on Octavarium.

An octavarium has 8 sides.

8 divided by 4 is 2.

One last thing, 5+8=13

Octavarium part two confirmed!




Darkstarshades

As a little sidething in order to preserve our sanities...
If you were to coin the term "Octavarium", what would it be? Your definition?
I'd call it a set of 8 related things that act as part of a circle on their own.

The Curious Orange

An eight sided room, or a room to seat eight people.

wasteland

What people call a Newton's Cradle I now and forever will call an Octavarium.

extrapolation is not necessary, i do 13 + 9 because it's LP 13 and 9 it's number of letter of 22 and twenty two is the number of letters of (The Great Northern Empire or the Ravenskill Rebel Militia)

a simply circle not an octa circle !

This is different, unexpected, new, and reeks of a fantasy metal concept album.

That web site and those graphics are quite Geocities-ish circa 1989   :-\

Reminded me of Daggerfall.   Either way, the designs look really outdated. I think my TI-44 used that Ravenskill font.  Blob, is there any way you can step in and show us what these designs would look like with modern software?
