Pain of Salvation thread, v.2 (merged)

[Zantera]

I wont listen until the album comes out, but I am excited about it at least.

[NecessaryPain]

PoS are just an awesome fucking band.

[The King in Crimson]

Is there a place to preorder RS2 yet? Each time I check their webpage, I'm overwhelmed by the uselessness of it and am forced to leave.

[Zantera]

On another note, unrelated to all the RS2-talk, I have gotten quite the PoS-collection these last weeks or so.
I own these in physical copies:

*Entropia
*One Hour By the Concrete Lake
*The Perfect Element
*Remedy Lane
*12:5
*BE
*BE (Original Stage Production)
*Scarsick
*The Second Death of (2 CD)
*Linoleum EP
*Road Salt One (Limited Edition)

And I'm waiting on The Second Death of (DVD), when I get that, I only need RS2 when it comes, out of the official released stuff.

[Silver Tears]

^ nice!

[faemir]

Those samples were great, I liked every one of them.

[ariich]

Love the samples, very excited about the album!

[shadowfex]

Really like the samples! The theme in ending credits and 1979 is so beautiful.

I'm missing the Ashes single here though. I have everything you listed including that and 'the painful chronicles'  .

So you hated it then. 

[LieLowTheWantedMan]

I'm finally starting to really like The Perfect Element (song). Although the first few minutes still feel like getting cockblocked to me.

[bout to crash]

WUT

[The King in Crimson]

Love that song, I dunno why everyone seems to hate it.

[pain of occupation]

are they listing the two bonus tracks of the limited edition correctly (repeats of the last 2 tracks)?

i kinda thought if it had bonus tracks, we'd get the other two tracks off the linoleum ep

[bout to crash]

Love that song, I dunno why everyone seems to hate it.

Who hates it?

[LieLowTheWantedMan]

Love that song, I dunno why everyone seems to hate it.

It's one of their most highly regarded songs.

[The King in Crimson]

Love that song, I dunno why everyone seems to hate it.

Who hates it?

I dunno, I always see people here ragging on it.

[pain of occupation]

^
no, theyre raging on it; or at least should be.

[senecadawg2]

I'm just starting to get into PoS

[faemir]

The front cover of RS2 looks even better than RS1 too

[Zantera]

I don't really like the cover for RS1, but the new one looks much better.

[faemir]

Why not?

[Zantera]

Well, for starters I'm not really much for white/really bright covers.
There are exceptions that I feel are done really well, and then I can't complain much.
To me the cover of RS1 looks like some Christian-music, something spiritual I guess.

Meanwhile RS2 looks much darker, and I just think it looks much cooler in general.
If if will work well with the music on the album is something I can't tell yet.

I was trying to figure this out last night.  I went to Amazon and it looks like it's only available for pre-order in Europe right now, not the U.S.  Not sure why. The release date is pretty close.

as i mentioned, the two bonus tracks be tripping me out

[MirzekDT]

Two bonus tracks are "Break Darling Break" and "Of Salt" and they are both somewhere in the middle of tracklist not in the end so that must be some kind of error there...

[ClairvoyantCat]

Both of those sound like possible counterparts to RS1 songs.  Break Darling Break to Sleeping Under the Stars and Of Salt to Of Dust.  That'd be interesting if they were. 

[pain of occupation]

thanx for the inside info, mirzek.

good points, clairvoyant. i think you're onto something.

SEMEN STAINS WASH OUT SURPRISINGLY EASILY

[ariich]

Two bonus tracks are "Break Darling Break" and "Of Salt" and they are both somewhere in the middle of tracklist not in the end so that must be some kind of error there...

Why must it be an error? The bonus track on RS1 was the first track! And it makes sense to put them in somewhere appropriate on the album, rather than after "Ending Credits".

[Liberation]

Bonus tracks in the middle don't sound good to me. Sounds like it's not going to be a particularly coherent album.

[ClairvoyantCat]

How can you possibly say that when you having even heard the songs or how they fit in yet? 

[Liberation]

If you can throw in or out two songs, then I find it a fairly obvious conclusion. I can't exactly imagine removing or adding anything on e.g. Scarsick.
