I think I have a theory.........

 

[aXygnus]

[Lucien]

... and the album will come out in March.

DON'T YOU EVEN SUGGEST SUCH THING

[Kotowboy]

[BlobVanDam]

Why do people still think that's funny?

[Kotowboy]

Why do people still think that's funny?

Some people do Blob. Why do you insist on being argumentative about every fucking thing ?

[Flacracker]

Why do people still think that's funny?

Cause it is. Mike Portnoy is Drum God and needs come Indonesia my country pls.

[BlobVanDam]

That kind of hostility wasn't really warranted. Coming from the guy who doesn't find anything in the post funny stuff thread funny, I thought you'd have a bit of a higher standard of humour than regurgitating worn out old memes.

It is old, but still gets a chuckle and for newer members it might not be old at all.  Blob you do seem to be a bit negative at times and it seems you look for opportunities to "poke a stick in the cage" so to speak.  Maybe that's the Aussie way but it seems you were being a bit provocative with your question.  Why do you care what people find funny?

Whoa, what's with the pile-on here?
I don't care what people find funny (or not funny...), but I do care when the discussion thread about the new album gets clogged with the same repetitive spam that the last one got locked for. And the hostility is still unwarranted.

Ahh...if you had mentioned thread derail, I would have agreed.  No worries...

[ariich]

In fairness Blob, it's mostly DarkLord who's been obsessed with the INDONESIA thing. This was the first time I've seen Kotow post it.

[BlobVanDam]

I thought Kotowboy had done it a few more times, but maybe not. Regardless, I didn't intend my initial comment to be taken so strongly, so sorry for the tangent.

Kotowboy, one day we will get along.






Soon.......

[wolven74]

Mornin' kids! 

So about that new album....

Preorders start next month eh? That's not so bad. They'll probably start within the first week of August, to coincide with JLBs new release. That's still almost 2 months from the super awesome orgy of sound that is DT12.

That's good, right? I

Just trying to stay positive!

[AngelBack]

"orgy of sound"......I like this !

[DarkLord_Lalinc]

It's just that every band says that about every new album they release.

I don't see what's the problem with that.

Not all of these albums are as strong as the band(s) claim they are.

And yet, that's your opinion. If the band considers the album is their strongest yet, why should that bother you? Good luck in finding an artist who says "hmm...well, being honest I'd like to say that this new album isn't as great as our earlier efforts...but you should buy it nonetheless!".

[Kotowboy]

Only Noel Gallagher has done that but he's allowed because he's a hilarious guy anyway and tells it like it is.

He described Shoulder of Giants as " Having two shit songs on "

and Be Here Now as " Just the same old Pub Rock Bollocks . "



But yeah - bands pretty much say their newest album is the best.

If they're a "metal" band - they ALWAYS say it's their heaviest so far.

[commanderbob]

We should all do a shot whenever someone gets in this thread get pissed about a comment, gets defensive about someone getting pissed, then (bless their heart) says some variation of "so, how about that new DT album?"  It's fun to watch.

As for me, I am honestly thinking that we are going to have a landmark DT Album, like SDOIT or SFAM were at the time of their releases.  ADTOE was close, I think that the new chemistry will push them into greatness.  ADTOE was addition by subtraction of all of the (to me) more stale elements, and this will add to that.

[Kotowboy]

So how about that new DT album ?

[matte.braso]

anyone that wanna ask rrusa the release date of the single??

[Kotowboy]

I believe I will do that;

Kotowboy : DTF's trusty don't-give-a-fuck guy

[JayOctavarium]

anyone that wanna ask rrusa the release date of the single??

soon

[Kotowboy]

IT IS DONE. 

[matte.braso]

soon

ahahah yeah I'm afraid this will be the answer

[TheLordOfTheStrings]

or something like "How does later today sound?" and everyone is like "YEAH, OMG!!" and then they go "Great! It'll be out next month!"


-_______-

[wolven74]

IT IS DONE. 

  Thats kinda demanding and entitled isn't it?

[Kotowboy]

Like I Said. I'm the forum's couldn't-care-less guy. 

[wolven74]

Really guys? We're basically like this:

[jonnybaxy]

Been away for 7 days and came back to 20 pages of pointless spam which I read to see if there was anything new....

[Thematt202]

RR should be proud of the DT fan base, not embarrassed because we come across as too keen.  We owe it to the band to be as vocal (in a positive way, of course) as we can be.  Remember, at the end of the day DT is a product as far as RR is concerned.  The more that product generates hype and publicity, the more money, respect and (crucially) promotion will be given to the band. 

[darkshade]

QFT

[Plasmastrike]

^ Pretty much.

It'll be out when it's out, not when you ask.

Enjoy what we've gotten. Song and album titles, cover art, two studio updates, and more updates coming!

[wolven74]

All of RRs tweets are from SDCC this weekend. I would be surprised if we heard any news other than "soon...." before Monday.

[Aefenwelg]

IT IS DONE. 

Um... the character's name is Wile E. Coyote.

jus sayin
